DetailsWorking Principle of Rolling Process: The rolling process is a metal forming process, in which stock of the material is passed between one or more pairs of rollers in order to reduce and to maintain the uniform thickness. This process is mainly focused on the cross-section of the ingot or the metal which is forming.
DetailsBased on the measured spectra of rail roughness and track structures longitudinal roughness, the rail grinding limit is studied with the help of an established coupled dynamic metro vehicle–track model and a rolling contact fatigue model.

DetailsThe wheels roll along onto the wing rail and it rides along the wing rail until it catches the point of the Frog. At no point is the wheel support of able to drop into the flangeway into the gap between the two rails, because it is firmly supported on those two rails, so it just rolls along the wing catches on to the Frog point as it is handed off onto the Frog rail and it rolls …
DetailsRail corrugation is a common railway defect that involves diverse and complex factors. Rail grinding is also the most commonly used method to address corrugations. Through numerous irregularity tests and one-third octave frequency spectrum analyses, this study determined the characteristics and development process for rail corrugation on high-speed …
