A data mining tool for detecting and predicting abnormal behaviour of railway tunnels (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Vagnoli, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., Thompson, D., Andrews, J., Clarke, P., & Atkinson, N. (2017). A data mining tool for detecting and predicting abnormal behaviour of railway tunnels.

The UK railway network is subjected to an electrification process that aims to electrify most of the network by 2020. This upgrade will improve the capacity, reliability and efficiency of the transportation system by providing cleaner, quicker and mo...

Railway bridge structural health monitoring and fault detection: state-of-the-art methods and future challenges (2017)
Journal Article
Vagnoli, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2018). Railway bridge structural health monitoring and fault detection: state-of-the-art methods and future challenges. Structural Health Monitoring, 17(4), https://doi.org/10.1177/1475921717721137

Railway importance in the transportation industry is increasing continuously, due to the growing demand of both passenger travel and transportation of goods. However, more than 35% of the 300,000 railway bridges across Europe are over 100-years old,...

Towards a real-time Structural Health Monitoring of railway bridges (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Vagnoli, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2017). Towards a real-time Structural Health Monitoring of railway bridges.

More than 350,000 railway bridges are present on the European railway network, making them a key infrastructure of the whole railway network. Railway bridges are continuously exposed to changing environmental threats, such as wind, floods and traffic... Read More about Towards a real-time Structural Health Monitoring of railway bridges.

A sensor selection method for fault diagnostics (2017)
Book Chapter
Reeves, J., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2017). A sensor selection method for fault diagnostics. In Safety and Reliability – Theory and Application: ESREL 2017. CRC Press

In the modern world, systems are becoming increasingly complex, consisting of large numbers of components and their failures. In order to monitor system performance and to detect faults and diagnose failures, sensors can be used. However, using senso... Read More about A sensor selection method for fault diagnostics.

A fuzzy-based Bayesian Belief Network approach for railway bridge condition monitoring and fault detection (2017)
Book Chapter
Vagnoli, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2017). A fuzzy-based Bayesian Belief Network approach for railway bridge condition monitoring and fault detection. In Safety and Reliability – Theory and Application: ESREL 2017. CRC Press

More than 35% of the European railway bridges are over 100 years old and the increasing traffic loads are pushing the railway infrastructure to its limits. Bridge condition-monitoring strategies can help the railway industry to improve safety, availa...

Railway bridge fault detection using Bayesian belief network (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Vagnoli, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2017). Railway bridge fault detection using Bayesian belief network.

Bridges are one of the most critical structures of the railway system. External loads may affect the bridge health state, and consequently their safety, availability and reliability can be improved by monitoring their condition and planning maintenan...

Quantitative risk prognostics framework based on Petri Net and Bow-Tie models (2017)
Journal Article
Vileiniskis, M., & Remenyte-Prescott, R. (2017). Quantitative risk prognostics framework based on Petri Net and Bow-Tie models. Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 165, 62-73. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ress.2017.03.026

A simulation framework based on the Petri Net model is proposed in this paper used for performing quantitative risk prognosis through extending the Bow-Tie model. A Petri Net model is built to include features, specific to assets, such as the conditi... Read More about Quantitative risk prognostics framework based on Petri Net and Bow-Tie models.
