Railway Tunnel Safety Monitoring and Rescue Guarantee System
Publication: International Conference on Transportation Engineering 2009
Abstract
Main factors influencing the railway tunnel running safety are analyzed, according to the running environment, equipment deployment and structural characteristics, by using new sensor technique, automatic monitoring technology and information processing techniques, the information system to ensure the railway tunnel running safety is put forward. The computer comprehensive management system of tunnel data collecting, supervision, monitoring, administrating and tunnel daily maintenance is integrated as a whole in this system, so that abnormal condition of tunnel can be discovered in time and timely rescue can be organized to decrease loss to the utmost extent; various data and information can be processed by the system; by decentralized detection, centralized alarm and unified management of data, comprehensive monitoring of video, audio, wireless channel and monitoring data is realized within an unified software platform; it provides related technique support of safety decisions, such as train traffic control, equipment maintenance and emergency rescue, etc, so as to ensure the railway tunnel running safety.
