🚆 Railway Wheelset Hunting: Klingel Wavelength, Creep Forces and Critical Speed (3D Blender Rig)
3D wheelset hunting lab: conicity, creep coefficient and suspension set the Klingel wavelength and the critical speed; above it the wheelset sways until the flange hits the rail.
⚙ Under the hood
3D wheelset hunting rig built in Blender: a conical-tread wheelset on rails sways at the Klingel wavelength, becomes unstable above the critical speed and bangs into a flange-limited cycle.
