Assessment of Active Wheelset Steering System Using Computer Simulations and Roller Rig Tests

The paper is created within a project which aims to design a system of active wheelset steering for an electric four-axle locomotive. The wheelset steering system enables reduction in forces acting in the wheel-rail contacts in a curved track and consequently a reduction in wear and maintenance cost...
