State-of-the-art report for on-board measurement systems

The ACORD project1 addresses challenges around rail roughness as a critical factor in railway noise generation and maintenance efficiency. It aims to enhance the understanding and management of the acoustic quality of tracks, thereby supporting sustainable, low-noise railway operations across rail networks worldwide. The project has two complementary goals:
- Harmonised evaluation of the impact of rail reprofiling on noise, facilitating low noise grinding processes (WP1).
- On-board monitoring of the acoustic quality of tracks to better understand how roughness grows and the factors which influence it, enabling optimised noise reduction strategies (WP2).
