Researchers from the Transportation Technology Center Inc. (TTCI) are using neutrons at DOE's ORNL to study how rails used in railway tracks wear away over time. A better understanding will help TTCI develop improved rail simulation models and other applications to enhance rail durability for increased safety and performance.
