Additive manufacturing technologies, well known as three-dimensional printing (3DP)
technologies, have been applied in many industrial fields, including aerospace …

The fastening system that links the rail and the sleeper in railway lines is an element of high
responsibility, since its failure may lead to the derailment of the train. This paper combines …

In order to study the influence of wheel-rail random dynamic interaction on the fatigue
damage for fastening clips, a three-dimensional (3-D) high-speed railway vehicle-track …

In order to study the effects of wheel-rail impacts on the fatigue damage of the fastening clips
at the rail joints of a high-speed railway, field tests were carried out on the wheel-rail impacts …

To analyze the reasons for rail clip fracture, the characteristics of rail corrugation were first
measured using a rail corrugation meter. The vibration acceleration of the fastener clips at …

Rail corrugation is a typical problem on rail surface, and its high-prevalence section is often
accompanied by the fracture of fastener elastic strip. The present paper focuses on the …

To study the effects of the assembled state on the static-dynamic characteristics and fatigue
performance of railway fastening clips, the clamping-force and modal characteristics of the …

Tension clamps play an important role in maintaining the track gauge by fixing the rails to
the sleepers. Damage to the tension clamps was observed on an urban railway. The cause …

Fatigue‐induced clip fractures are the most common type of damage in railway systems, and
they are exacerbated by rail corrugation. This research investigated the development of rail …

This paper details the fatigue life prediction model for welding components based on hybrid
intelligent technology. We make use of the capabilities and advantages of rough set theory …
