Ways to Improve the Safety of the East-West Transport Corridor with the Use of Intelligent Technologies and Systems

It is shown that at the present time increasing the degree of safety in rail transport requires an increase in the level of intellectualization of the relevant control and diagnostic systems. Here, first of all, it is necessary to create intelligent technologies for monitoring the beginning of the latent period of malfunctions both on the running gear of rolling stock and on the railroad bed, bridges and tunnels. Taking into account the particular importance of vibration diagnostics, an adaptive-intelligent system of vibration monitoring of malfunctions on rail transport is proposed. Here, the characteristics of useful vibration signal, vibration signal noise and interrelations between them are used as the main carrier of diagnostic information. We also consider the possibility of building an “intelligent system for identifying the track hauls that require out-of-turn control of the railroad bed”, the transmitting part of which is installed in one of the cars of rolling stock. The result of monitoring of railroad bed malfunctions through “means of communication” from the rolling stock is transmitted to the track hauls where the “malfunction detection system” by analyzing the received information for a day determines the hauls that need to be controlled out of turn.
