Sažetak
Rail corrugation is an irregularity that often occurs on a railhead running surface and can cause an increase in the noise and vibration levels as well as faster track deterioration. The possibilities of direct and indirect rail corrugation measurements are described in this paper as well as direct rail corrugation measurement that was carried out on a tramway track network in the city of Zagreb. Railhead corrugation was measured on several locations on the tramway track and the values were analysed with respect to the exploitation period of the tramway sections and the type of horizontal alignment. Analysis has shown that rail corrugation occurs more often in the curves than in the straight track and that the wavelength and amplitude of rail corrugation are higher on tramway track that has longer exploitation period. The conclusions of this paper are as expected, but as a next step towards automating the rail corrugation data analysis, the indirect measurements model is tested with the purpose of application on the whole tram track network using tramway vehicle monitoring.
