Surface metallurgy and rolling contact fatigue of rail

This thesis presents the results of an investigation into the effect of surface metallurgy on the rolling contact fatigue behaviour of rail. The investigation has used laboratory based rolling/sliding twin disc testing of samples with a surface metallurgical feature simulated on them. The samples us...
