  1. 16. Dynamic Train-Turnout Interaction – Mathematical Modelling, Numerical Simulation and Field Testing

    Författare :Elias Kassa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; contact forces; Karhunen–Loève expansion; dynamic train–turnout interaction; field test; wheel–rail contact geometry; stochastic analysis; switches and crossings; SRA - Transport;

    Sammanfattning : Two models for simulation of dynamic interaction between train and turnout are developed. The first one is derived using a commercial software for dynamics of multi-body systems. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Condition monitoring of railway vehicles : a study on wheel condition for heavy haul rolling stock

    Författare :Mikael Palo; Thomas Robertsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : A railway is an energy efficient mode of transport as it uses the low resistance contact between wheel and rail. This contact is not frictionless and causes wear on both surfaces. The wheel-rail guidance is made possible by the shapes of wheel and rail profiles. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Curving performance and nonlinear dynamic behaviour of freight cars with three-piece bogies

    Författare :Ansel Berghuvud; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datorstödd maskinkonstruktion; Computer Aided Design;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers modelling and simulation of the dynamic interaction between freight cars and railway track. The aim of the work is to study and enhance the knowledge and understanding of the nonlinear interaction for different heavy haul freight vehicle concepts of ore wagons applied at Malmbanan/Ofotbanen in northern Sweden and Norway.

  5. 19. Numerical simulation of crack growth and wear in rails

    Författare :Jim Brouzoulis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; crack propagation; material forces; Rolling Contact Fatigue; wear; railway mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Wear and rolling contact fatigue (RCF) of rails are huge problems for the railway industry with increased world-wide occurrence during the last decades. It is, therefore, of high interest to develop tools for the prediction of wear and RCF which can be used to estimate rail life. LÄS MER

  7. 20. On wear in rolling/sliding contacts

    Författare :Rickard Nilsson; Ulf Olofsson; I. Sherrington; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Technology; wear; rolling; sliding; contact; environment; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to increase the understanding of wear in rolling/sliding contacts such as the wheel-rail contact for railroads and the roller-washer contact for roller bearings. The Stockholm commuter train network has been the subject of papers A and B in this thesis in which the wear and surface cracks on rails has been observed for a period of three years. LÄS MER
