Abstract

The goal of this Paper is to reduce rail's wear in curved track by applying an additional surface layer material(High hardness and High resistance capacity of wear) on the top of the railhead. In order to evaluate appropriation of a coating material, experimental tests such as the varieties of fundamental properties tests (hardening, wear, tensile, and bending) and RCF(rolling contact fatigue)test were performed to establish fatigue wear and damage mechanism. As a result, wear performance of coating rail is better than heated rail about 6times and normal rail about 8~9times.
