Abstract

Results on the development of smart technology solutions for lower density
railway lines are presented. The goal is to reach a cost effective inspection and
asset management to minimize maintenance interventions time/cost without
dedicated inspection vehicles. The proposed methods in this paper include: 1) axle box acceleration measurements and 2) ultra‐low cost smartphones.
The data is interpreted and converted from monitoring information into
management information. Feasibility and preliminary studies were conducted
in the railway lines of Romania. The results presented in this paper were
obtained in the framework of the H2020 project NeTIRail‐INFRA.
