PERFORMANCE RESULTS OF HIGH SPEED RUNNING INVESTIGATIONS CARRIED OUT ON GERMAN FEDERAL RAILWAYS

LAUFTECHNISCHE ERKENNTNISSE AUSDEN SCHNELLFAHRUNTERSUCHUNGEN DER DEUTSCHEN BUNDESBAHN

Theoretical and experimental investigations for solution of problems of wheel flange wear at speeds of 200 km/hr and higher. Wheel profile II was devised as a result of the investigations. The progress of the development work is described on the basis of tests results. The problems of wheel tread stressing are discussed. The tests carried out on wheel sets flexibly attached to the frame are considered as a step towards on optimization of the overall design.
