Abstract

The wear dynamics of wheel ‐ set tyres of diesel locomotives was investigated. Basing on research results it is possible to predict wheel‐tyre safety margin, to improve maintenance and to state the periodicity of repair, as well as most efficiently to use traction rolling‐stock repair funds.
