AutoScan – Rail inspection by autonomous systems (AutoScan)
Date du début: 1 juin 2016, Date de fin: 31 mai 2018,
There are 215,720km of rail track in Europe, of which 4,300 broken rails are found every year. Broken tracks are the biggest cause of derailments, leading to loss of life and major disruption to services. Maintenance costs for member states of repairing broken rails are around €2bn every year. With the rapid increase in train traffic, train speeds and load carried, there is an urgent need to optim ...

Rail inspection by Flexible Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer (RIFLEX)
Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
"Railway maintenance is a costly activity that can be improved by faster inspection of assets. If the speed of inspection of the railhead can be increased the potential cost savings are significant. Current NDT solutions implement hand held devices that effectively scan at walking pace. EMAT devices have been utilised to demonstrate that a non-contact solution that can be mounted to a vehicle is f ...
