On Some Corrugation Related Dynamical Problems of Wheel/Rail Interaction

Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2010, Vol 22, Issue 1

Abstract

We simulate the motion of a corrugated disk over a corrugated track under unilateral elastic contact forces. In particular, the trajectory of the geometrical contact point and the magnitude of normal forces are studied. Effects like generation of waves and cumulation of plastic deformation are considered.
