A practical three-dimensional wheel-rail interaction element for dynamic response analysis of vehicle-track systems

A novel practical three-dimensional (3D) wheel-rail interaction (WRI) element is developed to simulate the interaction between a fast-moving wheel node and nodes of the rail. Different from most previous methods of wheel-rail contact in multibody dynamics, the wheel-rail relationship in this paper i...
