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 fordonsdesignAbstract : 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

2. Vehicle dynamics modelling of electromagnetic suspensions for MAGLEV applications
University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesignAbstract : MAGnetic LEVitation Guidance System (MAGLEV) technology was commercially introduced relatively recently in the guided transport field. It is based on removing the wheels and rails of classic railway systems and supporting and guiding the train with magnets and magnetic forces instead. READ MORE

3. 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)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. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

5. Holistic embedding of equivalent conicity in wheelset maintenance
University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesignAbstract : 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.
