An Experimental Study on the Squeal Noise for Subway

지하철 스퀼소음에 대한 실험적 연구

When a rail vehicle transverses tight curves, it often emits an intense, high-pitched squeal. This squeal has always been noticed as one of the most disturbing noise sources of railway systems. At present, w cannot predicted squeal noise that is influenced by a large number of dependent parameters. In this study, we performed structural analysis to find out the frequency of the wheel and measured squeal noise at Seoul subway. We also tested reduction effectiveness of squeal noise through rail lubricator
