Abstract(s)
Rail temperatures play an important role when understanding and predicting rail track instabilities. A rail temperature energy balance model was used, validated with FEA analysis, and compared with field-collected data. Both solution methods are in good agreement. Compared with the collected data, the model reaches an R² of 0.83. Boundary conditions improvements may be required.
