Detecting Plants on Railway Embankments

This paper investigates problems concerning vegetation along railways and proposes automatic means of detecting ground vegetation. Digital images of railway embankments have been acquired and used for the purpose. The current work mainly proposes two algorithms to be able to achieve automation. Initially a vegetation detection algorithm has been investigated for the purpose of detecting vegetat...

Effect of Constructing Canal in Embankments on Sand Flow through Railway Tracks in Desert Regions

Entry of sand dunes into the railway tracks can result in sand deposition on tracks, railway obstruction, derailment, damage to track flexibility, and impairment of electrical signs and rail fleet. It is aimed to investigate the strategies and solutions for reducing sand aggregation on railway tracks (including construction of sand passage canals through embankments and modification of the geom...

A Numerical Study on Geofoam Application in the Settlement Reduction of Railway Embankments

Construction of railway track embankment over a soft subgrade will bring the necessity of using soil improvement methods for bearing capacity and settlement criteria satisfaction. As a practical improvement method, railway embankment filled with geofoam blocks is studied in this paper. First; a bilinear stress-strain model developed in FLAC2D to simulate geofoam embankment behavioral model. Sec...

Railway Embankments as New Habitat for Pollinators in an Agricultural Landscape

Pollinating insect populations, essential for maintaining wild plant diversity and agricultural productivity, rely on (semi)natural habitats. An increasing human population is encroaching upon and deteriorating pollinator habitats. Thus the population persistence of pollinating insects and their associated ecosystem services may depend upon on man-made novel habitats; however, their importance ...

Impact of Cold Climate on Failures in Railway Infrastructure

Railway traffic has increased over the last decade due to greater energy costs and the need to reduce emissions. Ensuring the dependability and capacity of railway infrastructure requires efficient and effective maintenance which, in turn, requires good understanding of various physical behaviours, e.g. deterioration and environmental effects. This paper studies the effect of cold climate on ra...
