COMPENSATION FOR RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.doi:10.1016/S0140-6736(02)41551-6SkeyF.C.Elsevier Ltd.Lancet
The maximum rate of change of cant through a transition shall be calculated at the maximum speed permitted for trains not fitted with a cant deficiency compensation system. The design of cants for new lines is a complex subject and needs to be considered with other system requirements. Cant de...
(US: Frog) Crossing Protection – an arrangement of signs or electric signalling devices designed to prevent accidents at grade crossings. May include short arm gates or full gates. Crossing, Grade (X-ing) – a crossing or intersection of a railway line and a highway at the same level or...
In addition, as railways developed during the mid 19th century, there were a number of accidents caused by trains becoming uncoupled (a breakaway) or just failing to stop. Sometimes, breakaways ran down a grade and collided with the following train or trains became parted and the second h...
accidents and environment degradation, as well as security. In general, AV technology is largely perceived to have the potential to substantially abate (if not eliminate) many of these existing negative externalities. In one estimate, these external costs can be as high as the fuel price which ...

it can automatically detect any intrusion in the risk area. For intrusion detection and preventing accidents, Ku's method depends on people, and it is manual work that easily causes mistakes. Besides, in the risk area error, Ku's method is dependent on people, making it different from the ...
and multidisciplinary investigations for the assessment of the impact of waveform distortions (e.g., the relationship between waveform distortion variations and traffic planning, the shelf life of equipment, space and weather disturbances in power systems, transportation delays/accidents, user-related equip...
Through the proposed method, it is possible to find the cause of the risk of a railroad bridges, and prevent safety accidents caused by manpower inspection. This method may also replace other inconvenient and costly tests. Author Contributions Conceptualization, H.L.; data curation, H.L.; ...
