The development of an autonomous robotic inspection system to detect and characterise rolling contact fatigue cracks in railway track
At present, high speed dual purpose rail/road vehicles employing fixed non-destructive testing (NDT) sensors are used to inspect rails. Due to the uncertainties in characterisation of the defects when they are detected at high speed, manual re-visiting of the defects by expert operators is required...
