Pre-cracking development of weld-induced squats due to plastic deformation
Five-year field monitoring and numerical analysis
The modeling of dynamic frictional rolling contact is crucial for accurately predicting behavior and deterioration of structures under dynamic interactions such as wheel/rail, tire/road, bearings and gears. However, reliable modeling of dynamic frictional rolling contact is ch ...
In light of two wheel-rail contact relations, i.e., displacement compatibility and force equilibrium, a newly developed three-dimensional (3D) model for vehicle-track interactions is presented in this paper. This model is founded on the basis of an assumption: wheel-rail rigid ...
Rail squats originate from a number of sources, such as corrugations, indentations and welds. A five-year continual field monitoring study was performed on squats induced by corrugations. This study indicated that a small black depression formed at the corrugation under wheel- ...
The half-space assumption has been employed in many solution methods for non-conforming contact problems in elasticity such as the Hertz theory and the Kalker's variational theory. It is generally believed that to guarantee acceptable accuracy in these half-space-based methods ...
