| Summary: | The paper proposes three non-destructive experimental methods in
order to establish some criterions for the maintenance inspections of
the railroads.. The first experimental method consists in drilling the
railroad in different areas (head, basement and core of the rail
profile).The bending capacity of the railroad is not adulterated after the
drilling procedure . The residual surface stresses vanished around the
hole, the deformations along 3 directions are measured with a rosette
transducer and the values of the previous residual stresses will be
calculated . The periodical ultrasonic inspection has been performed
with a portable ultrasonic crack detector. |
