Track geometry estimation of a conventional railway from car-body acceleration measurement

This study proposes a track condition monitoring technique using car-body acceleration that can be easily measured by an in-service vehicle for the sake of an increase in safety of railway transportation. This paper demonstrates the possibility of estimating track irregularities of conventional rail...
