Effect of Rail Vehicle–Track Coupled Dynamics on Fatigue Failure of Coil Spring in a Suspension System

In a rail vehicle, fatigue fracture causes a significant number of failures in the coil spring of the suspension system. In this work, the origin of these failures is examined by studying the rail wheel–track interaction, the modal analysis of the coil springs and the stresses induced during operati...
