Parameter Studies for Wheel Wear Using a Flexible Wheelset

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to reduce wheel profile wear of high-speed train and extend the service life of wheels, a high-speed vehicle multi-body dynamic model and wheel profile wear model are established, in which the wheelset is considered as flexible. The influence of wheel profile, track gauge, and rail cant is extensively studied. The simulation results show that the type XP55 wheel has smallest cumulative wear depth, and type LM wheel has largest wear depth. It is known that the equivalent conicity of the wheel should not be too large or too small. The track gauge with 1435-1438mm and rail cant with 1:35-1:40 can have better wheel wear performance.
