IMPROVEMENT OF THE RESISTANCE OF HARDENED STEEL RAILS WITH FLAWS OF THERMOMECHANICAL ORIGIN

POVYSENIE PROCNOST, ZAKALENNYH REL[SOV S TERMOMEHANICESKIMI POVREZDENIJAMI

The article describes the results of studies into the effect of flaws of thermomechanical origin in hardened rails on the resistance characteristics of these rails. It is seen that the reduction in static and wear resistance, plasticity, tensile strength of rails, as results from wheel slipping and skidding, can be lessened by heat hardening of the rails.
