Abstract:

SCA transports timber via rail from railway terminals in western Sweden to saw and/or pulp mills located on the east coast. Sometimes timber wagons are lost due to damages inflicted when loading the wagon. Wagons can also be decommissioned for maintenance conducted by the Swedish Transport Administration. Both situations are unpredictable and causes many types of problems. If the wagons could be automatically traced these problems could be predicted and pre-emptive actions could be taken. All wagons used by SCA are equipped with RFID tags and RFID readers are installed at the railway terminals

Abstract:

Rail wear can result in extensive costs for the track owner if it is not predicted and preventedin an efficient way. To limit these costs, one measure is to predict rail wear through wear simulations. The purpose with this work is to perform simulations of successive rail wear on the Swedish light rail line Tvärbanan in Stockholm, by means of the track-vehicle dynamics software GENSYS in combination with a wear calculation program developed in MATLAB. The simulation procedure is based on a methodology with a simulation set design, where the simulations to be performed are selected through a pa

Abstract:

Rail infrastructure is a large and costly investment, and has a long life. To realize the benefits from this investment, effective maintenance is required. Railways are one of the prime modes of transportation in many countries and as they are closely associated with passenger and cargo transportation, they own high risk in terms of potential loss of human life and damage/destruction of assets. New technologies and stringent safety standards are constantly being introduced, but accidents still occur. There will always be some risk associated with derailments and collisions, but it can be reduc

Abstract:

To investigate the wheel/rail contact impact forces at insulated rail joints (IRJs), a three-dimensional finite element model and strain gauged experiments are employed and reported in this thesis. The 3D wheel/rail contact-impact FE model adopts a two-stage analysis strategy in which the wheel-IRJ railhead contact is first established in the static analysis and the results transferred to dynamic analysis for impact simulations. The explicit FE method was employed in the dynamic analysis. The Lagrange Multiplier method and the Penalty method for contact constraint enforcement were adopted for

Abstract:

In this dissertation, we have developed computer vision methods for measurement of rail gauge, and reliable identification and localization of structural defects in railroad tracks. The rail gauge is the distance between the innermost sides of the two parallel steel rails. We have developed two methods for evaluation of rail gauge. These methods were designed for different hardware setups: the first method works with two pairs of unaligned video cameras while the second method works with depth maps generated by paired laser range scanners. We have also developed a method for detection of rail

Abstract:

The worldwide preferred method for rail joining is welding; flash butt welding (FBW) and thermite welding (TW) are the two main welding methods used for joining continuous welded rail (CWR) tracks. However, the welds still represent a discontinuity in the track structure due to variations in microstructure, mechanical properties and residual stress levels with respect to the parent rail. These variations can play significant roles in increasing the risk of weld failure under service conditions. In order to better understand how FBW parameters affect these variations, the two main parameters; n

Rail steels rely primarily on possessing adequate wear and rolling contact fatigue resistance. These properties, together with the toughness, can in principle be optimized by implementing thermomechanical processing assisted by controlled niobium additions. The purpose of the current work is to develop a Nb-microalloying strategy in the context of high-carbon pearlitic and cementite-free bainitic steels. The conventional methods do not leave the critical regions of a rail section in a suitably processed state. An attempt has been made for the first time, to create a pancaked austenite grain st

Rates of car ownership in the United States exceed that of all other large nations in the world. This high rate contributes to the unexpressed demand for road space that renders highway expansion useless as a strategy for decreasing traffic congestion. It also necessitates the provision of on-site parking in residential buildings, decreasing the affordability of housing in urban areas. Furthermore, the curb-side parking needed to make room for the high number of cars in the country takes away space that could be used for bike lanes, transit lanes, or widened sidewalks.

Abstract:

It is generally observed that the condition of rail tracks degrades rapidly over time until and unless effective maintenance is carried out. In the rail industry, rail maintenance actions are usually reactive, which means that maintenance is carried out after a defect has been identified. Unfortunately, this approach can lead to general safety concerns and may result in costly maintenance. Predictive maintenance, which aims to predict the future behaviour of track degradation based on the analysis of already recorded data, can be used to identify defects in advance, thus providing a solution f

To attract more customers and compete with other modes of transportation, railway transport needs to ensure safety, punctuality, high comfort, and low cost; wheel–rail adhesion, i.e., the transmitted tangential force in the longitudinal direction during driving and braking, plays an important role in all these aspects. Adhesion needs to be kept at a certain level for railway operation and maintenance. However, wheel−rail contact is an open system contact. Different contaminants can present between the wheel and rail surfaces, forming a third-body layer that affects the adhesion. Prediction of

Recent developments in the manufacture of rail steels have refined the interlamellar spacing to produce harder and more wear resistant pearlitic steels. Despite better nominal properties shown by bainitic and martensitic steels, pearlitic steels have shown lower wear rates. The aim of this study is to explain the mechanisms for the wear performance by observing how the lamellar pearlitic microstructure adapts to the wear loading. Four pearlitic rail steels

Abstract:

The exchange of information is crucial to the operation of railways; starting with the distribution of timetables, information must constantly be exchanged in any railway network. The slow evolution of the information environment within the rail industry has resulted in the existence of a diverse range of systems, only able to exchange information essential to railway operations. Were the cost of data integration reduced, then further cost reductions and improvements to customer service would follow as barriers to the adoption of other technologies are removed. The need for data integration ha

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2004.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 123-126).<br>This thesis proposes a quantitative method to optimize inspection/repair intervention in rail defect management. Rail defect management is important for track maintenance, since rails are the most significant and basic component of the track systems. Rail inspection is a fundamental intervention to prevent rail failure. Railroads have evolved the rail inspection interval based on their empirical judgement and on field data. A crack si

Abstract:

Grinding of rails is a technique widely used within the railway industry to balance the degradation of the condition of the rail with the required performance of the rail. The principal focus of this research is the impact of wear and rolling contact fatigue (RCF) cracks on structural integrity of rails, and how rail grinding affects this relationship. A numerical model which predicts growth of RCF-initiated cracks in rails has been adapted to take into account periodic grinding of the surface of the rail. The suitability of some of the simplifying assumptions of the adapted model, referred to

Abstract:

In American rail operations, rails fail due to the combined effects of rail wear due to repetitive wheel contact and the growth of surface and sub-surface cracks and flaws. Rail maintenance includes frequent uncoupled wear and ultrasonic inspections that determine the amount of wear that the rail has undergone and the presence of cracks and flaws. A rail is removed from service when its wear reaches a pre-determined wear limit or a flaw is detected in its cross section. In rail research, the life of a rail is typically estimated using fracture mechanic or fatigue methods and an assumed flaw ge
