DESIGN STRATEGY FOR WHEEL AND RAIL PROFILES IN ORDER TO DECREASE THE WEAR OF WHEELS AND RAILS

Vehicle System Dynamics, 1985
SUMMARY Relationship between creep force and a slip angle has the same character as between aerodynamic force and an attack angle. The characteristic of creep force is changed according to the contact condition between a wheel and a rail. It is strongly affected by the sectional profile of a wheel and a rail.

Managing rail profile

Ironmaking & Steelmaking, 2013
AbstractManaging the contact conditions between train wheels and the running rail is key to controlling the dynamic behaviour of railway rolling stock and preventing rail defect initiation and growth. This paper describes the rail profile management strategies deployed by Network Rail.

Study on automatic alignment algorithm in rail grinding of rail head profile

2017 IEEE 2nd Advanced Information Technology, Electronic and Automation Control Conference (IAEAC), 2017
Rail profile alignment algorithm determines the amount of rail-grinding, the distribution of grinding heads, and directly affects the final grinding effect. The alignment algorithm based on the rail waist profile has been proposed. The paper studied the high accurate and automatic alignment algorithm based on the rail head profile.

Rail Profile Condition Monitoring Information Analysis of UK Rail Track

2009 International Conference on Computing, Engineering and Information, 2009
Condition based monitoring system can be used to determine how and why there were defects in rail profile. Such system helps in identifying trends for effective and efficient condition monitoring of rail profile. One such way is an in depth by information analysis of rail profile parameters by correlation analysis thus finding significant correlations ...

Influence of Wheel-Rail Profiles on the Hunting Vibrations of Rail Vehicle Trucks

Journal of Vibration and Acoustics, 1985
The effect of several wheel and rail profiles on the hunting behavior of three-piece North American freight truck is investigated by the method of describing functions. After replacing the nonlinear terms by their equivalent describing functions, the differential equations of motion are converted to a set of coupled nonlinear algebraic equations which ...

Determination of Rail Vertical Profile through Inertial Methods

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2010
Undergrounds and other metropolitan railway systems are characterized by their intense traffic, lasting up to 20 h per day, and so they need their maintenance work programmes to be optimized, implying an optimization of the monitoring processes. This article proposes an alternative to the traditional optical methods for monitoring rail profiles which ...

Regarding the issue of rail profile constructing

Ferrous Metallurgy. Bulletin of Scientific , Technical and Economic Information
he operational durability of railway rails, along with steel purity, physical and mechanical properties, and straightness, depends on the rail profile: the dimensions of its elements and the weight per linear meter. To date, the only rail profiles used on mainline railways in Russia are the P50, P65, and P75, which were developed in the middle of ...

Optimizing rail profiles to improve metro vehicle-rail dynamic performance considering worn wheel profiles and curved tracks

Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization, 2020
The LM wheel profile and profile of Chinese 60 kg/m rail (LM&CHN60) are commonly used in the Chinese metro. However, the poor matching between wheel and rail profiles as well as the instability of the vehicle often occur on some curved sections due to wear.

Optimal design of rail grinding patterns based on a rail grinding target profile

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2016
Based on the grinding target profile of the rail and the grinding capacity of a single grinding stone, a numerical calculation method for rail grinding patterns that includes grinding angle and grinding power of each grinding stone of the GMC96 rail grinding train was designed and established.

A design method for rail profiles based on the geometric characteristics of wheel–rail contact

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2017
Designing a proper rail profile carries more significance than designing a wheel profile because of the amount of work and cost involved in the maintenance of rails. A better rail profile will not only help to ensure achieving the desired dynamic performance of rail vehicles but it also extends the service life of rails.
