Automatic rail fault track detection for Indian railways

Indian railway is the largest railway network in Asia and additionally world's second largest network operated underneath a single management. The railways became the prime suggests that of transportation because of their capability, speed and responsibleness. Even a small improvement in this sector will aid the overall development of a nation. Due to the gigantic size, it's a tedious task to monitor and maintain the rails in a timely manner. The poor maintenance of the railway tracks will result in accidents. Occurrence of cracks in tracks became a serious concern for the railway. The rail cracks should be identified and corrected as early as possible as it poses a serious threat to the safe operation of the carriages. This proposal aims at elimination of the long prevailing issues in this sector. This effective methodology of continuous observation and assessment of rail tracks might facilitate to stop accidents. This methodology endlessly monitors the rail stress, evaluate the results and provide the rail break alerts such as potential buckling conditions, bending of rails and wheel impact load detection to the concerned authorities.
