“…ƒ coefficient calculates horizontal lateral (cross to central line of track) wheel forces and twisting moments on rail. This coefficient is estimated on the basis of experimental surveys on different types of rolling stock and theoretical calculations of railroad durability [4][5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

“…In order to estimate stress state of railways the calculations for railways durability according to the methods given in [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] were made. On the basis of made calculations and results of dynamic and railroad tests, the admissible speed of locomotives for typical railways construction on straight and curved track sections were determined.…”

Summary. Today modern locomotives of KZ4AС, KZ8A, ТE33А series were put into service in the Republic of Kazakhstan. In order to establish safe operating mode of these locomotives the admissible speed on the railway tracks of the Republic of Kazakhstan was determined. The admissible speed of locomotives was determined on the basis of analysis on the results of dynamic and railroad tests and calculations for stress of railway construction. ОПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕ ДОПУСТИМОЙ СКОРОСТИ ДВИЖЕНИЯ ЛОКОМОТИВОВ ПО ЖЕЛЕЗНОДОРОЖНЫМ ПУТЯМ РЕСПУБЛИКИ КАЗАХСТАНАннотация. В настоящее время в Республике Казахстан введены в эксплуатацию современные локомотивы серий KZ4AС, KZ8A, ТЭ33А. Для установления безопасных режимов эксплуатации этих локомотивов определены допустимые скорости движения по железнодорожным путям Республики Казахстан. Допустимые скорости движения локомотивов определены на основе анализа результатов динамических и путевых испытаний, а также расчетов напряжений в конструкции железнодорожного пути.

“…Further, it is commonly noted that earthwork failure is rarely sudden and without warning (for example (Bonnett 2005) section 6.5, p85), and simple monitoring techniques are available to give early warning, the most obvious one being tell-tales, which consist of a number of pegs set out in a straight line. Any siginificant movement of the earthwork would result in pegs moving out of line, which would be readily observable even by an unqualified staff member.…”

The UK is home to a substantial number of heritage and tourist railways which make a significant contribution to their local economies. These are mostly constructed on the routes of closed lines, and include large numbers of earthworks of uncertain construction and unknown strength. Recently, there have been earthwork collapses, most notably on the Gloucester and Warwickshire Railway during 2010 and 2011. The Office of Rail Regulation has also noted a number of safety incidents on heritage railways, all attributable to management failures. This paper describes an analysis of the Victorian earthworks on the Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway, a five-mile long heritage railway in central Scotland. The analysis and risk prioritization method used by Network Rail was found to be unsuitable for direct application to heritage railways due to the different operating context. A new system was therefore developed, removing some risk factors from the Network Rail approach, adding others and modifying further ones. The new system was successfully applied and the Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway earthworks were found to be generally stable and safe.
