  1. 1. On Simulation of Uniform Wear and Profile Evolution in the Wheel - Rail Contact

    Author : Roger Enblom; Mats Berg; Simon Iwnicki; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wheel-rail contact; wear; wear prediction; wear model; wheel profile; rail; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Numerical procedures for reliable wheel and rail wear prediction are rare. Recent development of simulation techniques and computer power together with tribological knowledge do however suggest computer aided wear prediction as possible. READ MORE

  2. 2. On the Performance of Long-Range Autonomous Underwater Vehicles : Enhancing the Endurance of AUVs

    Author : Clemens Deutsch; Jakob Kuttenkeuler; Roger Berg; Martin Ludvigsen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous underwater vehicles; Underwater gliders; Propulsion; Fuel cell; Energy management strategies; Autonom undervattensfarkost; Undervattensglidning; Propulsion; Bränslecell; Energy Management Strategies; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are robotic platforms that are commonly used to gather environmental data, provide bathymetric images, and perform manipulation tasks. These robots are used not only for scientific, but also for industrial and military purposes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Simulation and Measurement of Wheel on Rail Fatigue and Wear

    Author : Babette Dirks; Mats Berg; Roger Enblom; Mark Burstow; KTH; []
    Keywords : multibody simulations; prediction; wear; RCF; wheel; rail; cracks; measurements; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The life of railway wheels and rails has been decreasing in recent years. This is mainly caused by more traffic and running at higher vehicle speed. READ MORE

  4. 4. On Efficient Modelling of Wheel-Rail Contact in Vehicle Dynamics Simulation

    Author : Matin Shahzamanian Sichani; Mats Berg; Roger Enblom; Asier Alonso; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wheel-rail contact; non-elliptic contact; rail vehicle dynamics; rolling contact; vehicle-track interaction; wheel-rail damage; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The wheel-rail contact is at the core of all research related to vehicletrackinteraction. This tiny interface governs the dynamic performanceof rail vehicles through the forces it transmits and, like any high stressconcentration zone, it is subjected to serious damage phenomena.
