Zhang, P. (author), He, C. (author), Shen, C. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Li, Z. (author)Wheel-rail high-frequency interaction is closely related to the formation of railway short-wave defects. Finite element (FE) method has been widely used to simulate wheel-rail dynamic systems, but its validity in modelling high-frequency interaction has not been fully demonstrated in three dimensions (3D). This work aims at comprehensively...journal article 2024

He, C. (author), Yang, Z. (author), Zhang, P. (author), Li, S. (author), Naeimi, M. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Li, Z. (author)Polygonal wear is a type of damage commonly observed on the railway wheel tread. It induces wheel-rail impacts and consequent train/track components failure. This study presents a finite element (FE) thermomechanical wheel-rail contact model, which is able to cope with the three possible generation and development mechanisms of polygonal wear...journal article 2024
