Op-amp based railway track crack detection System with GSM technique
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
In the rapidly flourishing country like ours, accidents in the unmanned level crossings are increasing day by day no fruitful steps have been taken so far in these areas. In India, we find that rail transport occupies a prominent position in providing the necessary transport infrastructure to sustain and quench the ever-burgeoning needs of a rapidly growing economy. Today, India possesses the fourth largest railway network in the world. However, in terms of the reliability and safety parameters, we have not yet reached truly global standards. The principal problem has been the lack of cheap and efficient technology to detect problems in the rail tracks and of course, the lack of proper maintenance of rails which have resulted in the formation of cracks in the rails. Railway track security is most important part of railways. Very few techniques have been implemented concerning the crack detection in track. In this paper we are developing a fully automated system for reducing a cracking problem which is based on op-amp with GSM technology for communication purpose. Here the microcontroller is interfaced with op-amp, GSM modem, Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and real time clock (RTC) to monitoring the track during whole working time. The Op-amp is used to determine the cracking problem by comparing two different voltage levels then it gives the signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller process on receiving signal and give command to LCD to display the cracking message on screen. It immediately gets the exact location information using Global System for mobile (GSM) and sends that location and crack information to the control section. And the control section displays the exact location. The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is used to display the current status of the system.
