Strategies for Effective Rail Track Capacity Usage
In the United States, railways are the major means to trans-continentally move goods from ports to the various inland destinations. Due to mergers and abandonment of rail lines, there has been a reduction in the track capacity, concentrating rail traffic to fewer lines. In addition to this, booming trade with Pacific Rim nations has seen the annual trade in the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Bea...
متن کاملOnboard 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 کاملRail Track Maintenance Planning: an Assessment Model
In Australia, railway track maintenance costs comprise between 25-35 percent of total freight train operating costs. Track maintenance planning models have been shown to reduce maintenance costs by 5 to 10 percent though improved planning. This paper describes a model which has been developed to deal with the track maintenance planning function at the medium to long-term levels. This model simu...
متن کاملEvaluation of Passenger Rail Vehicle Crashworthiness
In recent years there has been an increased effort to investigate and improve the crashworthiness of passenger rail vehicles in the United States. The structural crashworthiness requirements for new rail vehicles are changing to include specifications for crash energy management and crush zones rather than primarily specifications of vehicle and component strengths. In addition, the structural ...
متن کاملMultiobjective robust design optimization of rail vehicle
This work deals with the multiobjective robust design optimization of rail vehicle systems moving in short radius curved tracks. Two criteria are considered simultaneously, i.e., safety and comfort. We showed that the deterministic optimal solutions, for the nominal design parameters, can be altered seriously by the design parameters uncertainty. A new algorithm that combines Genetic Algorithms...
