A Fast Algorithm for the Simplified Theory of Rolling Contact
TL;DR: An algorithm “Fastsim” for the simplified theory of rolling contact is described which is 15-25 times as fast as the existing programs Simrol (Kalker), and 3 times asfast as Rolcon (Knothe).
Journal ArticleDOI
Survey of Wheel-Rail Rolling Contact Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the theory of frictional rolling contact as far as it is significant for the wheel-rail system and give a present day account of the simplified theory and the exact linear and non-linear theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wheel-rail rolling contact theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors surveyed the theory of rolling contact after a development of over 60 years, and indicated to which problem(s) of wheel-rail technology each of these theories is best suited.
Journal ArticleDOI
A minimum principle for frictionless elastic contact with application to non-Hertzian half-space contact problems
J. J. Kalker,Y. Van Randen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a variational principle governing frictionless contact between two elastic bodies is established, which is valid both for linear and for non-linear elasticity, in the case of linear elasticity it appears to lead to an infinite dimensional convex quadratic programming problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variational principles of contact elastostatics
TL;DR: In this article, the variational principles of contact elastostatics were developed in an engineering fashion without use of functional analysis, and the existence proofs of the French-Italian school are missing.
