Wear is a major cause of bearing failure,however,compared with other impact failures,smooth wear is often neglected because of its slow gradualness.In a locomotive,under the effect of the intensified wheel-rail intera...
At cruising speed,one of the most significant contributing factors to train fuel consumption is aerodynamic drag,and the leading locomotive experiences much more drag than any other car in the train.This work reports ...
