Extending emergency repair response times for railway track switches through multi-channel redundancy of functional subsystems

A novel track switch concept has been developed at Loughborough University, which allows parallel-channel, fault-tolerant functions for the first time. This paper demonstrates, through mathematical modelling, real-world data and conservative assumptions, that using a multi-channel, fault-tolerant sw...
