Crack Propagation in Railway Wheel under Operating Conditions
Navrátil, Petr ; Schmidová, Eva (referee) ; Fuis, Vladimír (referee) ; Janíček, Přemysl (advisor)
This doctoral thesis was written under supervision of my supervisor Prof. Ing. Přemysl Janicek, DrSc. and under supervision of my specialist supervisor Ing. Petr Skalka, Ph.D. The thesis deals with the influence of various operating conditions on crack behaviour in in a wheel rim and/or tire. The dissertation topic was motivated by cooperation with Pardubice University, Faculty of Jan Perner. The first part of the thesis presents a literature search, which provides a current state-of-art in the field of contact loading, crack propagation behaviour under mixed-mode and thermal field generated during braking. The next part of thesis deals with the solution of the given problem and the obtained results are presented. Specifically, crack behaviour under various operating conditions including the crack growth rate is simulated. Also, an influence of thermal field on crack is investigated. The linear elastic fracture mechanics approach is considered to treat the above mentioned problems. Last part of thesis summarizes the obtained results which are discussed in a broader context.
