Equivalent Conicity Calculation Program Equivalent Conicity is a parameter that is used when investigating dynamic interaction between railways vehicle and track. The parameter describes behavior of contact between wheels and rails for straight and large radius parts of track. Calculated parameters The program calculates the next parameters: § Contact points position. § Rolling radiuses difference depending on displacement of wheel set. § Contact angles and their difference depending on displacement of wheel set. § Equivalent Conicity. Calculations are made in accordance with EN 15302....
