The calibration challenge when inferring longitudinal track profile from the inertial response of an in-service train
Quirke, Paraic; OBrien, Eugene J; Bowe, Cathal; Cantero, Daniel; Malekjafarian, A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)An Irish Rail intercity train was instrumented for a period of one month with inertial sensors. In this paper, a novel calibration algorithm is proposed to determine, with reasonable accuracy, vehicle model parameters from ... -
Determination of railway track longitudinal profile using measured inertial response of an in-service railway vehicle
OBrien, Eugene J; Quirke, Paraic; Bowe, Cathal; Cantero, Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The use of sensors fixed to in-service trains has the potential to provide real-time track condition monitoring to inform maintenance planning. An Irish Rail intercity train was instrumented for a period of 1 month so that ... -
Drive-by detection of railway track stiffness variation using in-service vehicles
Quirke, Paraic; Cantero, Daniel; OBrien, Eugene J; Bowe, Cathal (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Railway track stiffness is an important track property which can help with the identification of maintenance related problems. Railway track stiffness can currently be measured using stationary equipment or specialised ... -
Railway bridge damage detection using vehicle-based inertial measurements and apparent profile
Quirke, Paraic; Bowe, Cathal; OBrien, Eugene J; Cantero, Daniel; Antolin, Pablo; Goicolea, Jose Maria (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The presence of damage in a railway bridge alters its stiffness and consequently, its static and dynamic response to loading. The dynamic response of a railway bridge to loading produces a dynamic response in the passing ...
