This project aims to enhance the resilience of railway slab tracks against climate change by developing digital models for performance prediction and climate-adaptive maintenance strategies. It seeks to reduce maintenance costs and improve safety in extreme heat conditions.
We are in a warming climate.
Predictions indicate that the world is on track for a warming of 1.5 ℃ in the most optimistic situation.
This is very bad news for railway slab tracks utilized all around the world, since the intensified extreme heat waves in a warming climate can induce severe slab track failure and cause lethal outcomes like train derailments.
Furthermore, the rise in life-cycle carbon emissions due to increased track maintenance workload and material consumption worldwide in a war…
