Original abstract

In order to understand friction processes in wheel-rail contact a new experimental device has been developed. Twin-disc approach has been used to determine adhesion curves in wheel-rail contact under various conditions. This paper describes some details about the design of the twin-disc experimental device. Finally, preliminary results are discussed.

Czech abstract

Cílem článku je popsat dvoudiskové zařízení, které je využíváno pro studium tření v kontaktu kola a kolejnice. Zařízení umožňuje stanovení adhezních křivek pro různé provozní a okolní podmínky. V článku jsou detailně popsány hlavní části experimentálního zařízení a výsledky úvodních experimentů.
