Computation of slip analysis to detect adhesion for protectio n of rail vehicle derailment

Adhesion level for the proper running of rail wheelset on track has been remained crucial problem for researchers in detecting slippage to avoid accidents. In this paper the slippage of rail wheels has been observed applying forward and lateral motions to slip velocity and torsion motion. The longitudinal and lateral forces behavior is watched with respect to traction force to note correlation based on angle of attack. The deriving torque relation with tractive torque is watched to check slippage. Coulomb’s law is applied in terms of tangential forces to normal forces owing to creep co-efficient and friction to know adhesion. Nadal’s limiting ratio is applied to escape from wheel climb and derailment from track depending upon wheel profile and flange on straight path and curves
