  1. 1. Data analytics and machine learning for railway track degradation: Using Bothnia Line track measurements for maintenance forecasting

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Elie Roudiere; [2024]
    Keywords : Railway; Track geometry; Machine learning; Statistics; Predictive maintenance; Botniabanan; Järnväg; spårgeometri; maskininlärning; statistik; förebyggande underhåll; Botniabanan;

    Abstract : In this paper, a statistical method is developed to improve predictive maintenance on railway track. The problem tackled is being able to predict when the next maintenance event should take place to guarantee a certain track quality class. READ MORE

  3. 2. Opportunities with Modular Systems in Level Crossings : A Case Study in the Swedish Railway Industry

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Marcus Ankaräng; [2023]
    Keywords : level crossing; railway; modular system; systems engineering; systems development; plankorsning; järnväg; modulsystem; systemteknik; systemutveckling;

    Abstract : Level crossings are a dangerous part of railways, causing several deaths every year. While the safest solution is to remove crossings altogether using bridges or tunnels, this is complicated and cannot be done on a large scale. Many level crossings will therefore continue to exist.

  4. 3. Holistic embedding of equivalent conicity in wheelset maintenance

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Philipp Linzbichler; [2023]
    Keywords : Railway Operation; Equivalent Conicity; Wheelset Maintenance; Smart Maintenance; Data Analysis; Järnvägsdrift; Ekvivalent Konicitet; Hjulset Underhåll; Smart Underhåll; Dataanalys;

    Abstract : With continuing digitization of railways an increasing number of data is recorded but particularly in operation advanced analysis tends to be partially rudimentary. Yet, it is essential to implement sophisticated processing for all records in order to develop more purposeful and predictive vehicle maintenance strategies that adhere to the increasing requirements imposed by the homologation.

  5. 4. From Manual to Robotic -Assessing the Potential Benefits of Automation in Railway Inspections and Maintenance

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Trafik och väg

    Author : Benjamin Furberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Railway; Inspections; Maintenance; Robotics; Automation; Turnouts; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The railway industry plays a crucial role in the global freight transport and passenger mobility market, providing an efficient and low-emitting mode of transportation. However, to compete with other modes of transportation, the railway must improve its reliability. READ MORE

  6. 5. Application of formal verification and validation on modern multi-functional signalling system

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Shamsul Arefin; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Demand for rail transport is increasing day by day. Rail is popular in public transport due to punctuality, regularity, and safety. However, we hear daily that rail traffic still has many problems to solve about incidents, near misses, and signal errors. READ MORE
