High-Cycle Microscopic Corrosion Fatigue Behavior and Life Prediction of 25CrMo Steel Used in Railway Axle
The effects of environmental media on the corrosion fatigue fracture behavior of 25CrMo steel were investigated. The media include air, and a 3.5 wt.% and a 5.0 wt.% NaCl solutions. Experimental results indicate that the media induces the initiation of corrosion fatigue cracks at multiple sites. The multi-cracking sites cause the changes in the crack growth directions, the crack growth rate dur...
متن کاملOn the dynamics of European two–axle railway freight wagons
The design of European two–axle freight wagons can be traced back to the 1890’es. It has been and still is widely used in Europe because it is simple, rugged and cheap in price and maintenance. The internationally approved suspension for two–axle freight wagons in Europe is known as the UIC standard suspension (see Fig. 1). Each wagon has four of these suspensions. They consist of a leaf spring...
متن کاملVision-Based Vehicle Wheel Detector And Axle Counter
This paper introduces a method for counting vehicle axles in the video sequence appropriate for use in vision-based automatic vehicle classifiers with narrow field of vision. The procedure is simple, robust to wheel detector errors, and computationally efficient due to the use of the fast Hough transform. It provides a self-test for applicability for detection of cases where it is not applicabl...
متن کاملEvaluating Degradation at Railway Crossings Using Axle Box Acceleration Measurements
In this paper, we investigate the capability of an axle box acceleration (ABA) system to evaluate the degradation at railway crossings. For this purpose, information from multiple sensors, namely, ABA signals, 3D rail profiles, Global Positioning System (GPS) and tachometer recordings, was collected from both nominal and degraded crossings. By proper correlation of the gathered data, an algorit...
متن کاملDesign and Control of a Passively Steered, Dual Axle Vehicle
In this paper we describe the steering, suspension and control systems of the rover Zoë, a solar-powered robot designed to explore the Mars-like landscapes of the Atacama Desert in Chile. We are developing the Zoë chassis as an alternative to the traditional six-wheeled, rocker-bogie system used by Mars rovers flown in the past ten years. Zoë travels over rough terrain using only four independe...
