Surface roughness on 150 railway wheels and on the rails of 30 sites in the Netherlands have been measured. Block braked wheels were found to show higher roughnesses than the rail at any site. The smoothest rail is 8 dB smoother than the smoothest wheel. It was concluded that in reducing railway rol

In the present paper, the Dang-Van and the Liu-Zenner multiaxial fatigue criteria are applied to gear and wheel/rail contacts in order to determine contact fatigue limits. In the case of gear contacts, a comparison with experimental contact fatigue limits is discussed for various gear steels. In the

The multibody simulation of railway dynamics needs a reliable and efficient method to properly describe the contact between wheel and rail. In this work innovative methods to evaluate the position of contact points are presented. The aim is to develop a method which can be implemented on-line, assu
