A finite element, numerical model of a solid railway wheel was perfected permitting the simulation of a block braking operation. The analyses performed, backed by experimental tests, permitted the degree of variation in the residual stress state (induced by differential quenching heat treatment and successive tempering) caused by particularly heavy braking to be evaluated. The results highlight the influence of the main braking parameters (force and time) and the thermal history previously suffered by the wheel. Finally, the thermal fatigue strength of the component, although in an approximate way, was checked on the basis of the calculated stress state and through the introduction of the data of a real and particularly significant route into the model. This demonstrated the broad safety margin with which the wheel operates and also brought to light the dangerous nature of particularly severe braking which can drastically modify the residual stresses induced by the heat treatment, moving them towards tensile stresses.
