Track geometry quality assessments for turnouts

open access: yesTransportation Engineering, 2023
Turnouts are necessary, frequent and cost intensive. Despite the railway sector's focus on automation, the condition assessment of turnouts is still mostly done manually by responsible staff inspecting the turnout.

Performance-based track geometry and the track geometry interaction map

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2008
The track geometry interaction map (TGIM) is proposed as an effective way to evaluate the impact of multiple track geometry parameters on rail safety. Multi-body dynamics software has been used to simulate vehicle performance over tracks containing a large number of randomly generated lateral and vertical track geometry combinations.

The interaction between railway vehicle dynamics and track lateral alignment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Track geometry deteriorates with traffic flow, thus it needs to be regularly restored using tamping or other method. As the deterioration is mainly in the vertical direction this aspect has been widely studied and models for its analysis developed ...

Improved maintenance planning of railway tracks based on onboard vibration measurements using smartphones [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت مهندسی و رایانش نرم
With the increase in train speed, railway traffic has grown significantly in terms of both passenger numbers and cargo weight. Speed, weight, and rail traffic collectively impact rail track quality.

Evaluating the efficiency of rail gauge maintenance in Siberia [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
The state of gauge geometry is the basis for safe and uninterrupted train operations under the mixed traffic conditions, as well as in the sections where trains with increased weight and length, including wagons with an increased axle load, are handled ...

Influences of cement asphalt emulsified mortar construction on track slab geometry status [PDF]

open access: yesRailway Sciences, 2023
Purpose – The construction of cement asphalt (CA) emulsified mortar can obviously disturb the slab status after the fine adjustment. To decrease or eliminate the influence of CA mortar grouting on track slab geometry status, the effects of grouting ...
