| Authors: | McFarlane, Matthew |
| Keywords: | Rolling contact;Creep forces;Wheel-rail interaction;Railway dynamics |
| Issue Date: | 2009 |
| Abstract: | This thesis presents the theories and numerical simulations in regard to the behaviour of a single-axle railway wheelset commonly used in cargo rail cars. Specifically, creep forces, dynamic models, real wheel-rail profiles, and multiple point contact will be investigated. |
