Intelligent Quality Assessment of Railway Switches and Crossings, Hardcover by Galeazzi, Roberto (EDT); Danielsen, Hilmar Kjartansson (EDT); Ersbøll, Bjarne Kjær (EDT); Jensen, Dorte Juul (EDT); Santos, Ilmar (EDT), ISBN 3030624714, ISBN-13 9783030624712, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This book focuses on the latest scientific and technological advancements in the field of railway turnout engineering. It offers a holistic approach to the scientific investigation of the factors and mechanisms determining performance degradation of railway switches and crossings (S&Cs), and the consequent development of condition monitoring systems that will enable infrastructure managers to transition towards the implementation of predictive maintenance. Th is divided into three distinct parts. Part I discusses the modelling of railway infrastructure, including switch and crossing systems, while Part II focuses on metallurgical characterization. This includes the microstructure of in-field loaded railway steel and an analysis of rail screw failures. In turn, the third and final part discusses condition monitoring and asset management. Given its scope, th is of interest to both academics and industrial practitioners, helping them learn about the various challenges characterizing this engineering domain and the latest solutions to properly address them.
