“…Wheelsets are a very important subsystem in the vehicle, as they provide the interface with the track, support static and dynamic loads, provide traction, braking and guidance, the latter being the ability of the vehicle to follow the track [1]. Due to their very long service life (30 years or even more on European lines), railway wheelsets, and especially their axle, are prone to fatigue damage, which can be triggered by initial material defects or by service-related damage such as corrosion [2,3] or impacts with ballast stones [4].…”
