Investigation of the effect of residual waviness formed by rail profile milling of reshaped surface on wheel-rail contact stresses and low cyclic fatigue

Abstract The rail profile milling process allows considerable thickness to be removed in a single pass. However, the residual waviness formation law after milling and its subsequent effect on rail performance remains uncertain. In this paper, the wavelength and wave height of the residual waviness a...
