Track buckling is formation of large lateral misalignments in continuous welded rail (CWR) track, often resulting in catastrophic derailments.
Lateral thermal buckling is a common cause of derailments in continuously welded rail ( CWR ) tracks. Since CWR tracks are constrained against the motion ...
