Analysis of vehicle/track interaction measurement data using the V/TI Monitor system
Abstract
The Vehicle / Track Interaction Monitor (V/TI Monitor) is one of the latest-generation systems for measuring quality of railway infrastructure elements which, with the help of accelerometers, measures and describes dynamic behavior of vehicles in interaction with the track. The VTI-TQI software was developed as a means to discover and interpret a considerable number of typical situations on railways involving simultaneous occurrence of various irregularities. The possibility for forecasting future development and growth of such irregularities was established through generation of appropriate deterioration trends.
