Distribution of Mechanical Stresses in a Tire Subjected to Pressing on the Wheel Center of an Electric Locomotive

  • Published:
Materials Science Aims and scope

We analyze the main types of defects appearing near the sites of concentration of mechanical stresses in the material of tires of the wheels of electric locomotives. We study the distribution of stresses near the areas of potential appearance of fatigue defects in the tire in the course of its setting on the wheel center by the finite element method and discuss the obtained results.
