Yang, Z. (author), Li, Z. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)By considering real wheel and track geometry and structures, as well as their coupled interaction, an explicit finite element method is applied to simulate the transition of wheel–rail rolling from single-point tread contact to two-point tread-flange contact. The evolutions of the contact position, stress magnitude and direction, adhesion–slip...journal article 2016
