Rail inspection by Flexible Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer (RIFLEX)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016,

"Railway maintenance is a costly activity that can be improved by faster inspection of assets. If the speed of inspection of the railhead can be increased the potential cost savings are significant. Current NDT solutions implement hand held devices that effectively scan at walking pace. EMAT devices have been utilised to demonstrate that a non-contact solution that can be mounted to a vehicle is f ...
