Simpack - Rail: Obtaining Rail Wear Only along a Specific Track Length

Bump: 16 Feb 2024

 

Hi All

I am current running multiple rail wear iterations and simulation along a track alignment in Simpack  Rail. I would like to check how do I specify and compute the rail wear only at a certain track section along the track alignment where I want rail wear to be computed? Because it seems like computing wear for the whole track alignment will result in wear damage accumulated along the whole alignment and equally smoothen out thereafter which may lead to unrealistic rail wear results.
 

 

See example image as attached. Thank you for your time for reading this post and I wish you a good day ahead!

 

Best Regards
