An Alternative Method of Investigating the Thermal Stability of Shoe-Braked Railway Wheel Steels Based on Strain Hardening Analysis

During service, shoe-braked railway wheel steels are often subjected to a severe thermal cycle. Therefore, understanding the evolution of the microstructure and the resulting changes in mechanical properties during service is fundamental in the choice of steel. In previous research, the effects of t...
