Abstract:

This report is the first in a three-part series describing the technical contributions of the

Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the Volpe National Transportation Systems

Center (Volpe Center) to the UIC/WEC (International Union of Railways/World Executive

Council) joint research project on Rail Defect Management. Specifically, this report

describes engineering analyses that are used to examine the growth of internal rail defects

that were tested under laboratory conditions. The second report in this series describes

similar engineering analyses that were conducted to examine the growth of internal rail

defects tested under field conditions. The third report discusses applications of the rail

defect modelling efforts.
