SAA for High Speed Rail

FY 2016-17 · 2017-01-20

Summary
In high speed rail applications a measurement of cant and twist is needed to properly measure the deformation of the two nominally parallel steel rails. To measure this, two SAA instruments are needed, one on each rail, so that in combination the cant and twist can be derived form tilt measurements using mathematical means.

Description (French)
Dans les applications ferroviaires à haute vitesse, une mesure d’inclinaison et torsion est nécessaire pour bien mesurer la déformation des deux rails en acier nominalement parallèles. Pour mesurer ceci, deux instruments de tableau d’accéléromètre de forme « shape accelerometer array (SAA) » sont nécessaires, un sur chaque rail, pour que cette combinaison d’inclinaison et torsion peut être dérivée des mesures d’inclinaison en utilisant des moyens mathématiques.
