Development of a composite friction modifier with carbon nanotubes for applications at the wheel–rail interface

Wear of wheels and rails is a major problem in railway transportation industry. Solid lubricants constitute a cost-efficient alternative to control wear and friction at the wheel–rail interface, especially when a fine-tuned balance between traction force and energy consumption is sought. In this wor...
