INCREASE IN INFORMATIVE VALUE OF RAILWAY TRACK MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT

Abstract

[For the English abstract and full text of the article please see the attached PDF-File (English version follows Russian version)].ABSTRACT Using the methods of statistical analysis based on the theory of random process emissions, the theory of random point processes, the method of least squares, the method of least modules, filtering algorithms, the choice of a type of a theoretical function and its parameters that allow reducing the error of the measured characteristics of defects and deviations of the track from the design position, a mathematical model is formulated that provides an increase in the informative value of the assessment of the actual state of the railway track. High information value is needed primarily for formation of adequate control actions on the track in order to ensure traffic safety. Keywords: railway track, measured parameters, information-measuring system, defect detection, statistical analysis, theory of random processes, mathematical model.
