System-wide assessment of intervention strategies for railway infrastructure (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rama, D., & Andrews, J. D. (2014). System-wide assessment of intervention strategies for railway infrastructure.

The existing railway infrastructure exhibits faster degradation rates and requires more maintenance effort as a result of increased utilisation. At the same time, due to increased numbers of freight and commuter trains obtaining access to the railway...

Modelling the effects of asset management decisions on a railway track section (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Prescott, D., & Andrews, J. D. (in press). Modelling the effects of asset management decisions on a railway track section. In Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Railway Technology: Research, Development and Maintenance. https://doi.org/10.4203/ccp.104.166

This paper reports on the development of a Markov model that uses real-world deterioration, inspection and maintenance data to assess railway track asset management. The model allows both asset management personnel and track maintenance engineers to... Read More about Modelling the effects of asset management decisions on a railway track section.

Road network modelling for maintenance planning (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Yang, C., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2014). Road network modelling for maintenance planning.

In this paper a novel road network flow model is presented, suitable for modelling both motor-way and urban roads. A road network is modelled using a directed graph, consisting of typical roads and junctions, with different traffic flow inputs throug...
