Rail machining – current practices and potential for optimisation [PDF]
Current practices on rail machining show large variations in strategies and amount of grinding and milling. To identify reasons for this and suggest strategies to further optimise rail machining, objectives of machining are scrutinised and consequences of not fulfilling objectives are investigated.

Access to railway stations and its potential in increasing rail use
The propensity to travel by rail, and not, for example by car, can be considered to be a factor of the rail service offered, the access to it and the characteristics of the population served. Efforts to increase rail use usually focus on the rail service itself while the accessibility of the rail network receives less attention.

Analysis on Rail Potential Distribution Characteristics Considering OVPD in Metro System
By the field investigation of the metro system, it is found that there is relatively serious corrosion in the terminal of the metro line, and overvoltage protection device (OVPD) often operates when the metro system is in the valley level.

Decreasing the Rail Potential of High-Speed Railways Using Ground Wires
For high-speed railways, the rail potential, i.e., the electrical potential difference between the rail and the ground, can be considerably higher than that of conventional speed electric railways and become a safety risk to the signaling devices along ...

Gathering Energy of the Stray Currents in Electrified Railways Environment for Power Supply
The paper presents a new, unconventional energy harvesting (EH) method for supplying low-power devices on electrified railway lines that utilises stray currents and the non-zero potential of the rails to the ground.

Algorithm for calculating the rail-ground potential in heavy load conditions [PDF]
Increased freight turnover on railway transport inevitably leads to increased traction current in DC and AC traction power supply systems. The increase in traction current is already causing problems related to the normal operation of the 25 kV AC ...
