Detecting anomalous events at railway level crossings [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2013 Collisions between pedestrians and vehicles continue to be a major problem throughout the world. Pedestrians trying to cross roads and railway tracks without any caution are often highly susceptible to collisions with vehicles and trains. Continuous financial, human and other losses have prompted transport related organizations to come up with various ...

Loud and clear? Train horn practice at railway level crossings in Australia [PDF]
, 2021 The road environment has changed markedly over the years. Train horns are ostensibly used to alert road users and are typically mandatory on approach to railway level crossings. However, they have increasingly been seen as a nuisance.

Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2022 Long waiting time at railway level crossings poses a risk on the safety and affects capacity of rail and road traffic. However, in most cases, the long closing time can be prevented by reducing the time lost at a railway level crossing.

Laser-Based Obstacle Detection at Railway Level Crossings [PDF]
Journal of Sensors, 2016 This paper presents a system for obstacle detection in railway level crossings from 3D point clouds acquired with tilting 2D laser scanners. Although large obstacles in railway level crossings are detectable with current solutions, the detection of small obstacles remains an open problem.

LEVEL CROSSING ACCIDENTS ANALYSIS IN ROMANIA [PDF]
Annals of the University of Petroşani. Mechanical Engineering, 2023 Level crossing accidents are one of the largest groups of fatal accidents and it is often useful to investigate them from a safety point of view in order to avoid their recurrence.
