Summary
To investigate the influence of surface texture on traction characteristics of
wheel/rail under mixed lubrication, laser dispersed treatment was used to form
texture patterns, such as longitudinal, transverse and rhombus, on the surface of
wheel discs. The film thickness and contact area ratio were calculated by using
deterministic model instead of stochastic model. Based on the load-sharing concept,
the hydrodynamic film and asperities both contribute in carrying the total load.
Therefore the traction force is composed of two components: hydrodynamic traction
force and asperity traction force. The tribological tests were conducted on an Amsler
type wear testing machine. It is shown that the traction coefficient of rhombus
pattern is higher than that of longitudinal and transverse, while the latters are similar.
Though the asperity orientation of longitudinal and transverse is different, their
influence on traction coefficient under mixed lubrication should be investigated
further.
