A Polynomial Chaos Approach for Stochastic Modeling of Dynamic Wheel-Rail Friction
Accurate estimation of the coefficient of friction (CoF) is essential to accurately modeling railroad dynamics, reducing maintenance costs, and increasing safety factors in rail operations. The assumption of a constant CoF is popularly used in simulation studies for ease of implementation, however m...
