Onboard Dynamic Rail Track Safety Monitoring System
This proposal aims at solving one of the long prevailing problems in the Railways. This simple method of continuous monitoring and assessment of the condition of the rail tracks can prevent major disasters and save precious human lives. Our method is capable of alerting the train in case of any dislocations in the track or change in strength of the soil. Also it can avert the collisions of the ...

متن کاملrailway track stiffness variations – consequences and countermeasures
the track stiffness experienced by a train will vary along the track. sometimes the stiffness variation may be very large within a short distance. one example is when an unsupported sleeper is hanging in the rail. track stiffness is then, locally at that sleeper, very low. at insulated joints the bending stiffness of the rail has a discontinuity implying a discontinuity also of the track stiffn...
متن کاملAssessing the Role of Longitudinal Variability of Vertical Track Stiffness in the Long - Term Deterioration
The longitudinal variation of support stiffness is believed to be a key driver for the differential settlement of the ballast. This paper presents an innovative approach to correlate these two variables. In order to overcome the lack of input data, a statistical model is applied and the spatial correlation of the input stiffness data is controlled to generate naturally occurring variations. A l...
متن کاملExperimental Studies of Vertical Dynamic Stiffness of Single Floating Piles under Low Amplitude of Dynamic Force
This paper describes the experimental studies of vertical dynamic stiffness of single piles subjected to small amplitude of vibrations with constant dynamic load. The test results were correlated with the static load test results that had been carried out on the same piles. The ratio of dynamic to static stiffness mainly falls between 1.2-1.4. The dynamic stiffness measurements were compared wi...
