1 ENSMP 2nd/3rd year, finite element course, 22nd – 26st of november 2004 Study of the stresses in a wheel/rail contact FN FT We model the wheel of a loco- motive and a piece of rail by a cylinder and a plate. The weight of the locomotive puts a load of 9 tons on each wheel (r = 575mm). The weels and rails are both made of steel (E = 210GPa, ? = 0.3) they have a cross section of 20mm and a friction coefficient of µ = 0.3. Our locomotive is standing in the train station. The contact between wheel and rail is loaded by the weight of the locomotive only. We can compute the contact stresses by the analytic Hertz solution as well as by the FE method. When the locomotive starts to pull the wagons the whole traction is transmitted through the wheel/rail contact. The maximum traction can be limited by the power of the engine, by the friction pair wheel/rail or the material properties of wheel and rail. We will have a closer look. And there is an other question : Can a contact slide and stick at the same time ? In this miniproject we will compute the stresses near a wheel/rail contact with different loadings and compare them to the material resistance.
