Abstract:Intercity EMUs are prone to wheel flange wear and tread wear due to the high operating speed and many small radius curved tracks. The problems caused by wheel wear have seriously affected the safety of high-speed railway operations in China. In this paper, based on the original LMA wheel profile, the Gaussian function correction (GFC) method is proposed to design the wheel profile. The GFC method mainly changes the root region of the wheel flange, to enhance the curve passing performance and reduce wheel wear … Show more
