EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL DETERMINATION OF THE WHEEL-RAIL ANGLE OF ATTACK
Angle of attack is an important wheel-rail contact parameter. It serves for estimation of the rolling stock curving performance. Together with wheel-rail contact forces, angle of attack influences the wear index. This paper presents experimental on-track measurements of the angle of attack using a s...
