PREDICTING THE DIRECTION OF CRACK PROPAGATION ALONG THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF A MODEL RAILWAY CARRIAGE UNDER VARIOUS OPERATING CONDITIONS


Abstract eng:
This contribution deals with reliability of railway wheels as influenced by the occurrence of impaired limiting material strength. Results are presented of material investigation, experimental and computational modelling of crack propagation. The presented computational prediction of the direction of propagation of primary cracks differing in their length and position under various operation conditions is entirely original.
