10.1 Case Study 1 – AI Factory for Railway
Various technologies are used to monitor the condition of railway vehicles. These include acoustic-bearing detectors, hot box detectors (HBDs), temperature trending, hot and cold wheel detectors, track performance detectors, hunting detectors, cracked axle detectors, cracked wheel detectors, machine vision, and wheel impact load detectors (WILDs).
In most cases, defective wheels generate high-impact load on the track. This is detected by WILD, as it weighs each wheel several times when the wheel passes a detector at a certain distance. Strain-gauge-based technologies are used by WILD to measure the performance of a railcar in a dynamic mode by quantifying ...
