Description for Residual Stress in Rails
Hardback. Contain contributions from a conference on the themes of measurement and prediction of residual stress in railroad rails. This book includes elements of practical railway experience, and provides an understanding of the effects of residual stress upon crack propagation, and fracture. Editor(s): Orringer, Oscar; Orkisz, J.; Swiderski, Zdzislaw. Series: Engineering Application of Fracture Mechanics. Num Pages: 489 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TGMD5. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 514.
Rail integrity is a current application of engineering fracture mechanics at a practical level. Although railroad rails have been manufactured and used for more than a century, it is only in the last ten years that the effects of their crack propagation and fracture characteristics have been considered from a rational viewpoint. The J,Jractical objectives are to develop damage tolerance ~delines for rail inspection and to improve the fracture resistance of new rail productiOn. Rail fatigue crack propagation rates and fracture resistance are strongly influenced by residual stresses, which are introduced into the rail both during proouction and in service. ... Read more
