A new form of prestressed concrete sleepers developed by the V. Lazaryan Dniprope- trovsk National University of Railway Transport is shown to improve the lateral shift resistance of CWR track in sharp curves and the use of anchor sleepers on tangents is shown to make it possible to lower the fastening temperature of the CWR track in order to increase the rail lifespan.展开更多

In the numerical analysis of corrugation it is considered that acombination of Kalker's rolling contact theory with non-Hertzian to be modified, a linear frictionalwork model and a vertical dynamics model of railway vehicle coupled with a curved track.

The damage on the runningsurface of rail, concerning rail corrugation formation, is restricted to wear mechanism of railmaterial.
