Abstract

The calculation procedure for the period of subcritical fatigue crack growth near the lower design-envisaged hole of the pivot joint-coupled bogie frame of the electric locomotive is proposed. The procedure is based of the calculation model of the fatigue crack growth built on the energy conservation law in thermodynamics. Unknown mechanical characteristics of the bogie frame material were determined from experimental data by the least-squares method.
