    Derailment risk and dynamics of railway vehicles in curved tracks: Analysis of the effect of failed fasteners

    The effect of the fastener’s failure in a railway track on the dynamic forces produced in the wheel-rail contact is studied using the simulation software VAMPIRE to assess the derailment risk of two different...
