Abstract
The wear that shapes wheel and rail profiles has a profound effect on curving performance and dynamic stability of bogies. Reducing the spread between worn and unworn profiles, and in particular reducing the concavity of worn wheels, can significantly improve curving and ride quality of bogies, decrease wheel/rail damage and increase wheel and rail lifespan.
