Due to economic, functional and operational dependencies between different assets and different sections of the network,# optimal solutions at network level not always include the best strategies available for each asset group. This paper presents a modelling approach to support decisions on how to effectively maintain a railway infrastructure system. For each railway asset, asset state models combining degradation and maintenance are used to assess the impact of any maintenance strategy on the future asset performance. The asset state models inform a network-level optimisation model aimed at selecting the best combination of maintenance strategies to manage each section of a given railway network in order to minimise the impact of the assets conditions on service, given budget constraints and performance targets. The optimisation problem is formulated as an integer-programming model. By varying the model parameters, scenario analysis can be performed so that the infrastructure manager is provided with a range of solutions for different combination of budget available and performance targets.","PeriodicalId":278087,"journal":{"name":"Safety and Reliability – Safe Societies in a Changing World","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124459912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, some efforts have been made for detecting the structural integrity of mooring chains. However, a fully successful mooring chain condition monitoring technique has not been achieved today. This is largely due to the fact that mooring chains are submerged in water and the currently available nondestructive testing technologies are difficult to apply in wet environment. To overcome this issue, a new mooring chain condition monitoring method is studied in this paper with the aid of thermography technique. The research is conducted based on two philosophies, i.e. (1) the mooring chain material has much higher thermal conductivity than that of water. Therefore, when the mooring chain is heated, the thermal energy will transmit mostly inside the chain, rather than dispersing in water; (2) the defects occurring in the mooring chain will disturb the transmission of thermal flow inside the mooring chain and consequently change the distribution of the temperature in the adjacent area. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, both numerical and experimental researches are conducted in this paper. The research results have shown that thermography is indeed valid in detecting the integrity of mooring chains. ring in it. In reality, a defective mooring chain may but is not necessary lead to broken of the mooring line when it is subject to extreme loads. For example, Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) inspection has been popularly adopted for inspecting typical damage and loss of integrity of marine structures. It can be equally applied to the inspection of mooring chains. However, ROV inspection only provides snapshot of the surface of mooring chains, which could be covered by thick layer of marine lives. Therefore, visual inspection via ROV is unable to provide the operator with reliable information about the actual structural health condition of mooring chains. Moreover, the application of ROV inspection is limited by weather windows and access, it is unlikely to realize the continuous monitoring of the mooring chain. In order to obtain continuous monitoring data from mooring chains, AVT Reliability attempted to use strain gauge to monitor the integrity of mooring chains and applied the devised strain gauge based measurement system to assessing the integrity of the 9 mooring chains installed on a 870,000 barrel oil storage tanker (AVT Reliability 2017). The novelty of such a system is that it does not","PeriodicalId":278087,"journal":{"name":"Safety and Reliability – Safe Societies in a Changing World","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127304739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, continued efforts are applied as we stretch towards a goal of zero deaths and serious injuries in road traffic accidents. In this paper we explore if Norwegian driver education could benefit from simulator training. Possible advantages are cost effectiveness, environmentally friendly training, repeatability, accessibility to different scenarios (accident scenarios and dangerous situations, darkness and snow outside of winter, difficult weather conditions and extreme road traffic density), the possibility to make errors in a safe environment, and interaction with new technology such as advanced driver assistant systems. However, there are challenges such as how to increase the number of simulators in Norway, and legal obstacles as current legislations require all mandatory parts of the Norwegian driver education to be conducted on the road. Our overall impression is that the driver education in Norway could have advantages in applying a more systematic approach to simulator training. extra practice. The only premise is that the driver learner has completed an introductory course and that the experienced driver must have held their driver’s license for a minimum of five years without receiving any penalties or driver’s license endorsements (FOR 2017). Such additional training is meant to increase the driver learners’ experience behind the wheel prior to their exams and the license issuance. Our question is to whether driving simulators could be a training platform in Norway to increase driver learners’ driving experience, and if they can complement or even substitute some of the more traditional learning methods used in today’s education. In many industries where human errors are likely to have critical outcomes, such as aviation, hospital medicine and commercial nuclear power, simulator training is frequently used as part of training. Simulator training can be cost efficient and can provide training in situations that are rarely seen (e.g. accident scenarios; Bye et al. 2011; McGaghie et al. 2010; Salas, Bowers & Rhodenizer 1998). Currently driving simulators are not the standard way of learning how to drive, however, in some European countries, such as in The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, simulator training has gained some acceptance as part of the driver education (Baten & Bekiaris 2003), and there are reports showing an increased use of simulators in Germany (Stiegler & Vennefrohne 2017) and France (Goepp 2017).
