The structural and chemical changes near the tread surface of the railway wheels with the different tread profiles during operation were investigated. The influence of the structural changes in steel on forming of the micro-destructions and tread wearing was determined. The advantages of the complexcurvilinear tread surface were shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
