Study on the effect of mitigation strategies for rail corrugation in metro lines

open access: yes
Rail corrugation appears as a periodic irregularity on the rail running surface that causes severe dynamic loads at the wheel-rail interface. These dynamic forces may generate ground-borne vibrations that propagate from the line to the surrounding ...

Study On Stick-Slip Oscillations As A Formation Mechanism Of Rail Corrugation On Metro Lines And Parameter Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering
The objective of the current study is to investigate the formation mechanism of rail corrugation. According to the actual wheel-rail motion relationship, that is, considering the influence of the angle of attack (AoA), a single degree of freedom friction

Rail corrugation growth on curves - measurements, modelling and mitigation

open access: yes, 2015
The development of rail corrugation (so called rutting corrugation) on a 120 m radius curve on the metro of Stockholm Public Transport was studied by field measurements, laboratory measurements and numerical simulations.

Wear-type rail corrugation prediction: Field study

open access: yes, 2006
Rail corrugation consists of undesirable periodic fluctuations in wear on railway track and costs the railway industry substantially for it's removal by regrinding. Much research has been performed on this problem, particularly over the past two decades,

The Interaction Between Railway Vehicle Dynamics And Track Lateral Alignment

open access: yes
This thesis examines the effect of vehicle dynamics on lateral deterioration of the track alignment. As rail traffic runs along a route, the forces imposed upon the track cause the ballast to settle, and hence the track geometry deteriorates.

Effect of Vehicle Vibration on Interior Noise of Railway Vehicles Passing Through Rail Corrugation Sections

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study involved experimental research to analyze the effect of rail corrugation on interior noise levels inside railway vehicles. Measurements taken on the Incheon Line 2 light rail indicated that the vehicle’s age and maintenance condition have ...

Mechanism of Inner Rail Corrugation on Large-Radius Curves in Metro Systems

open access: yesLubricants
This paper investigates the underlying cause of inner rail corrugation on large-radius curved tracks in metro systems. A dynamic model of the vehicle–track system (VTS) was developed to analyze the creep characteristics between the guiding wheelset and ...

Evaluation of Rail Corrugation and Roughness Using In-Service Tramway Bogie Frame Vibrations: Addressing Challenges and Perspectives

open access: yesInfrastructures
Rail corrugation and roughness represent typical irregularities on railway and tramway tracks, which cause increased dynamic forces, high-frequency vibrations, reduced riding comfort, shorter track lifespan, higher maintenance costs, and increased noise ...

The effect of non-uniform train speed distribution on rail corrugation growth in cornering

open access: yes, 2015
Rail corrugation is a significant problem in railway engineering, manifesting as an oscillatory wear pattern on the rail head. These profile variations induce unwanted vibrations, excessive noise and other associated problems. Uniformity in train passing
