A single train wheel exerts a load of 135 kN on a rail assumed to be supported by an elastic foundation. For a modulus of foundation k = 16.8 MPa determine the maximum deflection and maximum bending stress in the rail. The respective values of the section modulus and modulus of rigidity are S = 3.9 X 10-4 m3 and EI = 8.437 MN.m2.
