This paper deals with quasi-static analysis of wheel-rail interaction. The model has been developed for analysing the contact patches behaviour, pressure distribution, von mises stress and strain. A solid model has been developed using SOLIDWORKS on the basis of UIC-60 rail profile and S-1002 wheel profile. Finite element analysis of the solid model has been done using ANSYS software. It has been observed that wheel-rail interaction is nonlinear and exceeded the yield strength of wheel material. The analysis of the worn thread of wheel has enabled the identification of the contact patches and critical sections of the wheel-rail interface.Keywords
