The NDT(Non-Destructive Testing) is valid for the defect detection of rolling stocks because it can be used to detect the defect in many invisible parts. For example, fatigue cracks are initiated in press fit parts that suffer from fretting fatigue damage such as the wheel seat and the NDT technique can detect those cracks. But the conventional ICFPD method can not apply to detect such cracks in press fit parts of the axle by some technical problems. In this study, we have introduced the new concept ICFPD method that can be applied in press fit parts of the axle. And we have shown the basic techniques of FEM about the new concept ICFPD method.

As recently optical communication industry is developed, request of optical communication part is increased. Ferrule is very important part which determines transmission efficiency and quality of information in the optical communication part. Most of ferrule processes are grinding which request high processing precision. Particularly, concentricity and cylindricity of inner and outer diameter is very important. The co-axle grinding process of ferrule is to make its concentricity all of uniform before centerless grinding. Surface integrity of ferrule is affected by kind of grinding wheels, grinding conditions, and characteristic of workpiece and equipment. In this study, surface integrity of workpiece according to change of grinding wheel speed, feed rate, regulating wheel speed and grinding force is investigate to improve the concentricity and roundness of ferrule from many experiments.

A wheel dynamometer was installed between the rim and axle hub to measure the forces and moments applied to a vehicle. The wheel dynamometer was composed of sensing and signal processing components. Because the sensing component contained a complex structure to sense the six components of the forces and moments and the wheel rotated along with the vehicle movement, sophisticated signal processing hardware and a software algorithm were used. The strains and the calibration matrices of the wheel dynamometer along the wheel rotation angle were investigated using FEM. From the analysis, the calibration matrices were simplified using a spline interpolation. Based upon these results, the signal processing component could be effectively designed and the firmware software could be simplified.

In this study, we developed a dynamic model and steering controller model for an autonomous tractor and evaluated their performance. The traction force was measured using a 6-component load cell, and the rotational speed of the wheels was monitored using proximity sensors installed on the axles. Torque sensors were employed to measure the axle torque. The PI (proportional integral) controller's coefficients were determined using the trial-error method. The coefficient of the P varied in the range of 0.1 - 0.5 and the I coefficient was determined in 3 increments of 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1. To validate the simulation model, we conducted RMS (root mean square) comparisons between the measured data of axle torque and the simulation results. The performance of the steering controller model was evaluated by analyzing the damping ratio calculated with the first and second overshoots. The average front and rear axle torque ranged from 3.29 - 3.44 and 6.98 - 7.41 kNm, respectively. The average rotational speed of the wheel ranged from 29.21 - 30.55 rpm at the front, and from 21.46 - 21.63 rpm at the rear. The steering controller model exhibited the most stable control performance when the coefficients of P and I were set at 0.5 and 0.01, respectively. The RMS analysis of the axle torque results indicated that the left and right wheel errors were approximately 1.52% and 2.61% (at front) and 7.45% and 7.28% (at rear), respectively.

Fatigue and wear in wheels is often due to the forces and loading. These certainly have fundamental effects on reducing the wheel life and increasing the costs related to repairing and maintenance. Modeling and stress analysis of a wheel sample existing in the Iranian fleet have been performed in its contact with U33 and UIC60 rails. The results have been reviewed and analyzed in elastic and elastic-plastic phase and under static (railcar weight) and quasi static loads. Moreover, effects of wheel diameter, axle load, wheel material, rail type are analyzed.

The safety of tilting train running on curved track is, in general, evaluated with a derailment coefficient calculated by the ratio of wheel load and lateral force, Particularly on curve, the wheel load and lateral force on rail may cause trackbed to be deformed, depending on their intensity, and moreover, often result in critical accident such as derailment. This study hence was intended to identify the cause of wheel load and lateral force so as to suggest the allowable wheel load reduction rate, lateral force limit and derailment coefficient, thereby quantitatively evaluating the operational safety of tilting train. This study therefore was aimed to analyze the wheel load and lateral force occurred during tilting train's operation on circular curve in such a way of comparing with traditional trains, by axle and speed, in a bid to eventually evaluate the operational safety of tilting train.

Tire vibration modes are known to play a key role in vehicle ride and comfort characteristics. Inputs to the tire such as impacts, rough road surface, tire nonuniformities, and tread patterns can potentially excite tire vibration. In this study, experimental modal analysis on the tire in ground contact are performed by a 3-D impact at the center of contact patch to investigate which modes of tire influence the vibration of wheel and axle. Through the experiment, the vibration transmission properties from tire to axle are examined. And we have compared the influential tire modes when the tire is excited by a vertical impact with those when excited by the 3-D impact. Additionally, the modes of ground contact tire are compared with those of the suspended tire.

차륜 불평형은 차륜의 무게중심이 윤축의 기하학적 중심축에서 벗어나 있을 때 발생한다. 차륜 불평형을 수정하지 않고 주행하면 불평형에 의한 원심력이 차체의 진동을 발생시키게 되며 차륜의 마모를 촉진시키거나 차축 베어링에 손상을 주게 된다. 본 연구에서는 철도차량 동적해석을 통하여 차륜 불평형이 차량 임계속도와 차체 진동에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 차륜 불평형은 임계속도를 감소시키고 차체 공진을 유발할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 차륜의 정적, 동적 불평형에 따른 차체진동을 해석함으로써 불평형 수정은 양면 밸런싱이 필요함을 밝혔다.

Railway wheels and axles are the most critical parts of the railway rolling stock. The wheel carry axle loads and guide the vehicles on the track. Therefore, the contact surface of wheel are subjected to wear and fatigue process. The wheel damage can be divided into three types; wear, contact fatigue failure and thermal crack due to braking. Therefore, in the contact surface between the wheel and the rail, the materials are heat treated to have a specific hardness. The manufacturing quality of the wheel have a considerable influence on the formation of tread wear and damage. Also, the residual stress on wheel is formed during the manufacturing process is one of the main sources of the damage. In this paper, the mechanical characteristic and the residual stress according to wheel material have been evaluated by applying finite element analysis and conducting mechanical tests.
