Optimisation of railway track maintenance and renewal works by genetic algorithms
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a new approach to optimisation of railway track maintenance and renewal works via genetic algorithms. Decision support systems and genetic algorithms are used in this study to optimise railway track maintenance and renewal activities. The results obtained in the scope of this study show that planned maintenance and renewal management systems can be developed and successfully used instead of resorting to corrective maintenance activities.

Ballast as a part of the railway system plays an important role in the operation of the railways and also has a great impact on repair and maintenance activities. Hence most of the repair and maintenance activities in traditional railway systems are due to the defections in the ballast layer and therefore most of the maintenance budget is spent on repairing these defects. These repair and maint...

The roles of the several parameters that influences railway track deterioration most, are examined in this research with a view to make railway track maintenance more effective and cost efficient. The results presented are based on a comprehensive study of railway track degradation on super structure, sub-structure and geometrical aspects. The changes in TQI (Track Quality Index), the track set...

Railway infrastructures are among the most important national assets of countries. Most of the annual budget of infrastructure managers are spent on repairing, improving and maintaining railways. The best repair method should consider all economic and technical aspects of the problem. In recent years, data analysis of maintenance records has contributed significantly for minimizing the costs. B...
متن کاملInfluences of Railway Track Geometry Parameters on Ground-Borne Vibration
One of the most important challenges in the development of urban railways network is the effects of railway vibrations on human and adjacent structures. Although various investigations into the sources of railway vibrations have been conducted, very few research works have been reported on the influences of track geometry parameters on the level of vibrations. This is addressed in this resea...
