Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering ((LNME))

Abstract

Systems that contain instrumented wheelsets and algorithms for strain-measurement evaluations are used to obtain contact between wheels and railway parameters while the car is moving. So a method for the evaluation of contact point coordinates was developed. Some results of it’s application are presented here.
