Past efforts of the Nigerian Railway Corporation to produce shoe brake blocks locally have proved unsuccessful; the brake blocks produced are defective, and are highly susceptible to brittle (catastrophic) failure. The objective of this work was to undertake failure analysis of locally produced shoe
In this study, failed samples of railway brake blocks were analysed to ascertain the causes of failure. Seven samples of varying charge constituents were produced in a permanent mould. Mechanical tests (hardness, compression and impact), spectroscopic analysis and microstructural investigations were
