ABSTRACT
The present paper focuses on study of parameters such as lateral force, wagon weight, rail path curvature, train speed and path slop those have greatest effects on wear mechanism of wheel and rail. ADAMS-RAIL simulation software was used for dynamical modeling of train while moving via railway. Some experimental tests were carried out to evaluate the wear loss obtained from these parameters. Results indicated that in railway with high path curvature higher lateral force affects on wheelsets. Moreover, high train speed resulting lower derailing probability. Furthermore, cant has a significant effect on critical rates like derailing. And also, it is influential on wheel and rail lateral force and decreases the wear between rail and wheel. By increasing in lateral force from 46N to 64N, the wear rate increases about 66% and by increase in slip velocity the wear rate also increases.
