Monitoring vertical wheel–rail contact forces based on freight wagon inverse modelling

The safety and stability of freight train operations are closely related to the wheel–rail contact dynamic forces. To evaluate and monitor the wheel–rail dynamic forces based on the accelerations on the wagon components, a two-dimensional inverse wagon model has been developed. To verify the inverse...
