Railway vehicle dynamics

a two-dimensional rolling contact theory giving the tangential creep force between a driving wheel and rail as a function of creepage.

In railway vehicle dynamics, Carter creep theory refers to a two-dimensional rolling contact theory giving the tangential creep force between a driving wheel and rail as a function of creepage. This meaning comes from Carter (1926) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Containing Papers of a Mathematical and Physical Character.[1]
