Construction of a Decision-making Support System for Proposing Track Maintenance Plans

Current maintenance plans are based on time-based maintenance (TBM). TBM is based on instruction for track maintenance and repair limits. On the other hand, in condition-based maintenance (CBM) the track maintenance plan is determined in consideration of cost-effectiveness and the maintenance level at which reasonable maintenance is possible. The decision-making support system introduced in this paper can propose track maintenance plans using details of track irregularity by analyzing frequently obtained data. Through the construction of the system, realization of high-quality track maintenance and improvement of technical capabilities can be expected. The authors report on the development and content of the decision-making support system in this paper.
