Rail corrugation detection by Gabor filtering

چکیده
Inspection of the rail state in order to detect defects is one of the basic tasks in railway maintenance. Rail defects exhibit different properties and are divided in various categories relating to the type and position of flaws on the rail. In this paper, we propose a technique, based on texture analysis of rail surface, to detect and classify a particular class of defects: corrugation.

Railscan: A Tool for the Detection and Quantification of Rail Corrugation
Rail corrugation is a phenomenon that leads to a waving in the rails with wavelengths typically between 3 cm and 100 cm and amplitude levels of several microns. The genesis of this waving is complex. Rail corrugation is a recognized problem that leads to excess vibration on the rails and vehicles to a point of reducing their life span and compromising safety. In urban areas excess vibration noi...
متن کاملEffect of Rail Corrugation on the Amount of Train Induced Vibrations near a Historical Building
The evaluation and control of the trains induced vibrations needs even more attention in the case of underground tracks which passes near to monuments and historical sites. The rail corrugations which occur due to the wheels’ impulse loads during the operation period of underground railway tracks, usually amplify the ground borne noise and vibration. In the current study, the mentioned phenomen...
متن کاملA method of predicting variable speed rail corrugation growth using standard statistical moments
Wear-type rail corrugation is a significant problem in the railway transport industry. Some recent work has suggested that speed control can be used as an effective tool to minimize the rate of corrugation growth. This has brought about the need to model corrugation growth under variable passing speed. Variable speed rail corrugation growth modelling normally consists of either numerical simula...

Methods for face recognition which are based on face structure are among techniques without supervision and produce unfavorable results in the presence of linear changes in images. PCA is a linear transform and a powerful tool for data analysis but does not produce good results for face recognition when there are non-linear changes resulting from changes in position, intensity and gesture in th...
متن کامل3D Gabor Based Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection
Hyperspectral anomaly detection is one of the main challenging topics in both military and civilian fields. The spectral information contained in a hyperspectral cube provides a high ability for anomaly detection. In addition, the costly spatial information of adjacent pixels such as texture can also improve the discrimination between anomalous targets and background. Most studies miss the wort...
