Finite Element Analysis and Static Load Test of a Wheelset of Gwangju EMU for Measuring Wheel/Rail Force

The railroad is a means of large transportation which has many talents such as a safety and a regularity. That is a results from various confidential performance tests and evalutions of the system. The railroad system consist of various subsystems - vehicle, power spply, signal communications, track structures, operations, etc. Among them as an item of safety evaluation there is a measurement of wheel/rail force, so called a measurement of derailment coefficient. This is a very important item because a derailment of a train will bring about a big accident. Especially it is more important in high speed rail of which operation speed is over two times as fast as existing rail. In this paper, it is introduced to preprocess the wheelset for measuring wheel/rail force of Gwangiu EMU, such as to treat a measuring wheelset its finite element analysis, adhesion of strain gauges and static load test.
