Effect of Pad-fastener on Thermal Buckling of Track

궤도의 온도좌굴에 미치는 체결재의 영향

Continuous Welded rail(C.W.R.) tracks has many advantages over the conventional jointed rail track. Due to the elimination of rail joints for thermal expantion, however it many cause the track to be suddenly bucklled by thermal loads. The present study investigates the influences of Pad-fastner on the Thermal buckling behavior of C.W.R. Parametric studies are performed to evaluate the effects of the individual parameters on the upper and lower critical bucklig temperature.
