RAILWAY AGE, MAY 2023 ISSUE: The future is bright if we continue to pursue the five I’s—Identify, Invest, Innovate, Implement and Improve. Welcome to “Timeout for Tech with Gary T. Fry, Ph.D., P.E.” ...
High-speed train wheel dynamics and wear analysis is an essential field focused on understanding the mechanisms that lead to irregular wear patterns, particularly polygonal wear, on train wheels. This ...
RAILWAY AGE, JULY 2022 ISSUE: Reducing rail wear and mitigating noise in tight curves are among the benefits of lubrication and its high-tech equivalent, friction management. Suppliers are helping ...
m|wheel was designed by Müller-BBM Rail Technologies as a high-precision measuring device for the wheel diameter and the wheel-running surface, which can be used to confirm if wheels are out-of-shape, ...
While train wheels may look simple, their conical design actually conceals some of the smartest engineering solutions in transport. Far from just trundling along steel rails, it's the shape of the ...
Train Wheel Cost: A train wheel isn't just a means of transportation; it's also a testament to a multi-million dollar investment. Let's find out how much a train wheel costs to make and how strong it ...
