  7. Abstract:
  8. The first project ,paid to review and analysis types of crack and agents Also, was referred methods to control them in rail industry .
    The wheel of Alestom train and UIC60 rail were simulated and stress analysis by software FEM (ANSYS and ABAQUS) , and effect of various parameters such as applied forces , train wheel diameter , contact position and rail inclination on stress values was studied . For comparision of results has been used analytic Hertz theory .
    By using experimental data on the subsurface crack , those cracks were created in the wheel . For load on the modeling wheel and rail, ,assuming contact on the wheel rolling point , were used vertical load of wagon weight ( with coefficient for the equivalent static load with a maximum dynamic load) and driving torque on the wheel (constant velocity).
    Wheel with rolling motion on the rail , was impressed fatigue reload , that by simulation crack by ABAQUS and review the possibility of using LEFM , assuming reload with constant amplitude , was calculated stress intensity factor for main tips of crack and has been determined the modes of crack deformation and more these coefficients were equivalent using Tanaka model and finally , the number of cycle to growth a crack was calculated by formula Walker
