Compressive residual stresses are induced intentionally during manufacturing of a railroad car wheel surface to prevent the formation and growth of cracks in the wheel. After the wheel is put into service, it experiences external loading: contact loads from the interaction of the wheel with running rail, and thermal loads imposed by friction between the wheel and the brake shoe during braking. In this book, the residual stresses distribution due to the manufacturing process and the effects of service conditions on the wheel are investigated using finite element method.    The FEA solution demonstrates the distribution of compressive hoop stress in the wheel  rim during the manufacturing process. Results also indicate that contact stress acting alone  causes increased net rim hoop compression. However, thermal stress caused by brake shoe applied on the  wheel greatly reverses the residual hoop compressive stress in the wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783847334446\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eafter Manufacturing,Contact and Braking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783847334446","offer_id":39486499389533,"sku":"9783847334446","price":68.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/cadcd68c-25f7-4d04-8c41-bf905c7c26c7.jpg?v=1769148086","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/finite-element-analysis-of-residual-stresses-in-railroad-car-wheel-von-shuangqin-liu","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
