    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; track friendliness; rail surface damage; multi-body simulation; longitudinal train dynamics; track maintenance; rolling contact fatigue; wear; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik;

    Sammanfattning : Track damage due to progressively increasing tonnage, especially due to longer and heavier freight trains, is one of the major problems faced in the European rail sector. In this context, to stay competitive, optimal track maintenance practices, track-friendly vehicles and safe operations of long freight trains assume prominence. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Wayside Condition Monitoring Technologies for Railway Systems

    Författare :Matthias Asplund; Ulla Juntti; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The railway is an important mode of transport, due to its environmental friendliness, high safety level, and low energy consumption, among other reasons. Railways provide a sustainable means of transporting a large amount of freight and passengers, in a cost-effective and comfortable way. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Timetable Analysis based on Social Cost and Simulation

    Författare :Jennifer Warg; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Carl-William Palmqvist; Paola Pellegrini; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railway capacity allocation; timetable analysis; social costs; microscopic railway simulation; macroscopic railway simulation; passengers; timetable performance; early departing freight trains; Järnvägskapacitet; tidtabellsanalys; sociala kostnader; mikroskopisk järnvägssimulering; makroskopisk järnvägssimulering; resande; tidtabellseffektivitet; tidiga godståg; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Sammanfattning : The timetable is essential for railway traffic. Its design affects rail operations – and by extension all operators, passengers, and freight clients. International practice for capacity allocation varies and there is no common algorithm for designing and evaluating timetable changes. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Wayside Condition Monitoring System for Railway Wheel Profiles : Applications and Performance Assessment

    Författare :Matthias Asplund; Uday Kumar; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : The railway is an important mode of transport, due to its environmental friendliness, high safety level, and low energy consumption combined with a high transport capacity, among other factors. The Swedish railway network is old, there has been almost no expansion of the network during the past few decades, and more traffic is expected. LÄS MER
