  1. 6. A Machine Learning-Based Approach for Fault Detection of Railway Track and its Components

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Drift, underhåll och akustik

    Author : Johnny Asber; [2020]
    Keywords : Condition Based Maintenance in Railway; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; ResNet-50;

    Abstract : The hard equation of railway safety versus the high commercial profits can only be achieved through the use of new inspection methods supported by modern technologies. The track and its components can have different types of troubles, such as rail surface defects, broken sleepers, missing fasteners, and irregular ballast levels. READ MORE

  3. 7. Evaluating the lifting capacity in a mobile crane simulation

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Simon Roysson; [2020]
    Keywords : Realism; Mobile Crane; Crane; Simulation; Unity; Artificial Neural Network; Function Approximation;

    Abstract : The work environment of a mobile crane is hazardous where accidents can cause serious injuries or death for workers and non-workers. Therefore, the risk for these accidents should be avoided when possible. One way to avoid the potential accidents is to use mobile crane simulations instead, which removes the risk. READ MORE

  4. 8. Risk, Rail and the Region : A spatial analysis of regional differences of infrastructural safety and the risk of accidents at Swedish level-crossings

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

    Author : Henning Grauers; [2019]
    Keywords : level-crossings; infrastructural safety; risk; railway;

    Abstract : Level-crossings, i.e. intersections where railways and road meet in the same vertical level, constitute risk for the users of respective infrastructure system. The aim of this thesis is to examine possible regional differences between the infrastructural safety standard of level-crossings in Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 9. Predictive maintenance for a wood chipper using supervised machine learning

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Johan Lindström; [2018]
    Keywords : Predictive maintenance; Supervised machine learning; Decision forest; Wood chipper;

    Abstract : With a predictive model that can predict failures of a manufacturing machine, many benefits can be obtained. Unnecessary downtime and accidents can be avoided. In this study a wood chipper which has 12 replaceable knives was examined. The specific task was to create a predictive model that can predict if a knife change is needed or not. READ MORE

  6. 10. Detecting Rails in Images from a Train-Mounted Thermal Camera Using a Convolutional Neural Network

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Datorseende

    Author : Magnus Wedberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Railway Detection; Machine Learning; Computer Vision; Deep Learning; CNN; Convolutional Neural Network; Thermal Infrared Images;

    Abstract : Now and then train accidents occur. Collisions between trains and objects such as animals, humans, cars, and fallen trees can result in casualties, severe damage on the train, and delays in the train traffic. Thus, train collisions are a considerable problem with consequences affecting society substantially. READ MORE
