STRAIN GAUGE MEASUREMENTS FOR ESTIMATING THE SAFETY OF ROLLING PROCESS

E. Ghita, H. Segal

Abstract

The present paper is focused on some experimental measurements concerning forces appearing at contact between wheel and rail during the rolling process. Experiments have been performed for real working conditions on a railway testing circuit located near Bucharest. Strain gauge measurements have been preferred in order to estimate some typical parameters for the safety of the rolling process.
