Burgelman, N. (author), Li, Z. (author), Dollevoet, R. (author)This paper investigates the effect of the calculation of the longitudinal location of a wheel rail contact point on the wheelset’s motion in a vehicle dynamic simulation. All current vehicle dynamic software programs assume that the contact between wheel and rail takes place in the vertical plane through the wheelset’s rolling axis. However,...journal article 2016

Idarraga Alarcon, G.A. (author), Burgelman, N.D.M. (author), Meza Meza, J. (author), Toro, A. (author), Li, Z. (author)This work investigates the energy dissipation in a wheel/rail system through friction work modeling. In order to identify the effect of the friction coefficient on the energy dissipation in the wheel/rail contact, several simulations were performed using a 3D multibody model of a railway vehicle implemented in the software package VI-Rail Adams,...conference paper 2015
