A condition-based maintenance methodology for rails in regional railway networks using evolutionary multiobjective optimization: Case study line Braşov to Zărneşti in Romania

In this paper, we propose a methodology based on signal processing and evolutionary multiobjective optimization to facilitate the maintenance decision making of infra-managers in regional railways. Using a train in operation (with passengers onboard), we capture the condition of the rails using Axle Box Acceleration measurements. Then, using...
