Rail stress analysis deals with stresses due to vertical loading on tangent track giving rise to high stress in flange of rail foot, and stresses due to lateral flange forces and associated eccentric vertical loading on curved track which give in addition high stress in web fillet radii; analysis was made to match load imposed on track with its load bearing capabilities to avoid undue stress in rail, and to determine overall maximum axle loading within which locomotive has to be designed.
