He, C. (author), Yang, Z. (author), Zhang, P. (author), Li, S. (author), Naeimi, M. (author), Li, Z. (author)Polygonal wear is a common type of damage on the railway wheel tread, which could induce wheel-rail impacts and further components failure. This study presents a finite element (FE) thermomechanical model to investigate the causes of wheel polygonal wear. The FE model is able to cope with three possible causes of polygonal wear: thermal...conference paper 2022
