A Review of NDT Methods for Wheel Burn Detection on Rails

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Wheel burn can affect the wheel–rail contact state and ride quality. With long-term operation, it can cause rail head spalling or transverse cracking, which will lead to rail breakage.

Safety and risk analysis at railway crossings of north-south Addis Ababa light rail [PDF]

open access: yesSmart and Resilient Transportation, 2021
Purpose – Railway-level crossings (RLCs) are the point of intersection between rail and road users and are therefore hotpots of road-rail user conflict and catastrophic collisions. The purpose of this study is to assess the risks associated with RLCs and

Research of geometric parameters of symmetric railroad switches [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences
Turnouts are a barrier in the track for setting the permissible speeds of trains movements on the main tracks, as they have special structural devices for branching traffic from the main track to the side one.

Detection of Rail Defects Using NDT Methods

open access: yesSensors, 2023
The rapid development of high-speed and heavy-haul railways caused rapid rail defects and sudden failure. This requires more advanced rail inspection, i.e., real-time accurate identification and evaluation for rail defects. However, existing applications
