Ultrasonic Guided Waves-Based Monitoring of Rail Head: Laboratory and Field Tests
Recent train accidents have reaffirmed the need for developing a rail defect detection system more effective than that currently used. One of the most promising techniques in rail inspection is the use of ultrasonic guided waves and noncontact probes. A rail inspection prototype based on these conce...
