Railway tracks.
Chalmers' Railway Mechanics Centre

Charmec

Charmec is a national centre of excellence in railway mechanics with 12 partners from industry and public sector. The research sets out from the interaction between train and track and resulting phenomena (noise, material deterioration, brake phenomena etc), which cause over half of the maintenance costs of track and freight vehicles.

More information is available at CHARMEC's old homepage. Information is gradually being transferred.
