Proposal of the rail profile selection method to reduce gauge corner cracking initiation by mitigating contact conditions of wheel and rail

The gauge corner cracking (GCC) occurs on heat treated rails of the high rail in curved sections with a radius of 600 to 800m. In case of GCC propagates deeply, it may cause rail breakage. Therefore, it is very important to prevent the occurrence of GCC for the safety transportation of railways. In...
