Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Railway Track Monitoring System
International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2021 For the protection and proximity of railway networks it is substantial to Promptly detect and identify faults in the railway tracks. In this paper, railway track fault diagnosis is approximated from the vertical and lateral acceleration using a MPU6050.
