the theory linking small slip (creepage) at a rolling wheel-rail contact to the tangential creep forces, with a fast simplified algorithm.

In railway engineering, Kalker's rolling contact theory refers to the theory linking small slip (creepage) at a rolling wheel-rail contact to the tangential creep forces, with a fast simplified algorithm. This meaning comes from Kalker (1982) in Vehicle System Dynamics.[1]
