Statistical Description of Wheel Roughness
نویسنده
چکیده
Wheel roughness measurements available from several different campaigns are presented in terms of average levels and dispersion. The dependence on factors such as brake type and whether the wheel is powered or trailing is also addressed. A method to decide how many wheels from a train are to be measured is then presented. Finally, the main outcomes are described from a round robin test aimed at assessing the effect on wheel roughness measurements of adopting different equipment, used independently by different teams,.

Study on Experimental and Modeling of Rotary Roll Dressing of Grinding Wheels
Two of the important parameters in grinding operation are surface roughness of the workpiece and the amount of consumed energy. These parameters are strongly affected by the condition of grinding wheel surface which is dependent on the dressing parameters. Predicting the roughness of the grinding wheel surface after dressing with known dressing parameters can improve the grinding process. Resea...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Surface Roughness in Grinding of BK7 Optical Glass in Brittle Mode
Surface roughness is a significant parameter which determines the efficiency of optical components. Surface damages induced by grinding strongly influence the mechanical strength and optical quality of optical glasses. It is meaningful to rapid evaluate the surface roughness through the measurement of different grinding parameters. In this study, a cup diamond wheel (D64) is used in grinding pr...

متن کاملCorrelation between Deflection and Unevenness Index for Evaluation of Flexible Pavements
Evaluating existing flexible pavement condition is a pre-requisite to choose improvement technique that has to be adopted to enhance its quality. To evaluate existing pavements, non-destructive testing methods are desirable. Benkelman Beam and 5th Wheel Bump Integrator are used to conduct non-destructive tests like deflection and roughness surveys on the existing pavement of 4 lane divided carr...
متن کاملModeling of a Vehicle Wheel System Having a Built-in Suspension Structure Consisted of Radially Deployed Colloidal Spokes between Hub and Rim
In this work, by replacing the traditional solid spokes with colloidal spokes, a vehicle wheel with a built-in suspension structure is proposed. Following the background and description of the wheel system, firstly, a vibration model of the wheel equipped with colloidal spokes is proposed, and based on such model the equivalent damping coefficients and spring constants are identified. Then, a m...
