The adhesion characteristics of railroad wheels against rails were simulated using a sub-scale wheel/rail configuration. The apparatus consists of a small roller to simulate the locomotive or rolling stock wheel and a large roller to simulate the rail. The scale of the wheel/rail profiles, relative to full size, is 1:4. Results indicated that this laboratory test can be used to adequately simulate...
The aim of this paper is to investigate the adhesion behavior of wheel/rail under dry and water conditions using a JD-1 wheel/rail simulation facility. The results indicate that a wheel/rail simulation facility has been developed and used to assess the effect of dry and water lubricant conditions on adhesion behavior of wheel/rail. The adhesion coefficient of wheel/rail rises rapidly with the increase...
