  text: Tire-wheel assembly is the only connection between road and vehicle. Contacting
    directly with road within postcard size of contact area, it is mounted and guided
    by the suspension system. Therefore kinematics and compliances of suspension system
    greatly influence the frictional coupling of tire tread elements and road surface
    asperities by affecting pressure and sliding velocity distribution in the contact
    zone. This study emphasizes the development of a numerical methodology for frictional
    rolling contact analysis with focus on interaction of suspension system dynamics
    and tire-road contact using ADAMS. For this purpose a comprehensive flexible multibody
    system of the multi-link rear suspension is established, where both flexible and
    rigid bodies are modeled to allow large displacements with included elastic effects.
    To meet accuracy requirements for the high frequency applications, such as road
    excitations, the amplitude- and frequency-dependency of rubber-metal bushings
    is included. Furthermore the proposed flexible viscoelastic suspension model is
    enhanced by a Flexible Ring Tire Model (FTire), which describes a 3D tire dynamic
    response and covers any road excitations by tread submodel connected to road surface
    model. Concerning the verification and validation procedure numerous experiments
    are carried out to confirm the validity and the accuracy of both the developed
    submodels and the entire model. The devised approach makes it possible to investigate
    the influence of suspension system design on dynamical rolling contact and to
    evaluate tire tread wear. Therefore it can be a useful tool to predict frictional
    power distribution within the contact area under more realistic conditions.

  text: A model to calculate the locally resolved tangential contact forces of the
    wheel rail contact with respect to contact kinematics, material and surface properties
    as well as temperature is introduced. The elasticity of wheel and rail is modeled
    as an elastic layer consisting of point contact elements connected by springs
    to each other and to the wheel. Each element has two degrees of freedom in tangential
    directions. The resulting total stiffness matrix is reduced to calculate only
    the position of the elements in contact. Friction forces as well as contact stiffnesses
    are incorporated by a nonlinear force-displacement characteristic, which originates
    from a detailed contact model. The contact elements are transported through the
    contact zone in discrete time steps. After each time step an equilibrium is calculated.
    For all elements, their temperature and its influence on local friction are regarded
    by calculating friction power and temperature each time step.

  text: 'A profound description of friction in wheel--rail contact plays an essential
    role for optimization of traction control strategies, as input quantity for railway
    simulations in general and for the estimation of wear and rolling contact fatigue.
    A multitude of wheel--rail contact models exists, however, traction--creepage
    curves obtained from measurements show quantitative and qualitative deviations.
    There are several phenomena which influence the traction--creepage characteristics:
    Mechanisms resulting from surface roughness, frictional heating or the presence
    of interfacial fluids can have a dominating influence on friction. In this paper,
    a new wheel--rail contact model, accounting for these influential parameters,
    will be presented. The presented model accounts for the interaction of an interfacial
    fluid model for combined boundary and mixed lubrication of rough surfaces with
    a wheel--rail contact model that additionally accounts for frictional heating.
    A quantitative comparison with measurements found in the literature is not conducted,
    since the exact conditions of the measurements are mostly unknown and parameters
    can easily be adjusted to fit the measurements. Emphasis is placed on the qualitative
    behavior of the model with respect to the measurements and good agreement is found.
    The dependence of the maximum traction coefficient on rolling velocity, surface
    roughness and normal load is studied under dry and water lubricated conditions.'
