Introduction. Efficient operation of a system for measuring rail surface short-wavelength irregularities depends on evaluation of the signal length with respect to travelled distances, i.e., the standard maximum defect length and the distance between the

Near field enhancements from angled surface defects : a comparison of scanning laser source and scanning laser detection techniques [PDF]
Enhancement of the Rayleigh wave signal amplitude at a surface defect, due to interference of incident, reflected and mode converted waves, has been reported by several authors, and it has been suggested that this could be used as a fingerprint of the ...

Adaptive noise cancelling and time–frequency techniques for rail surface defect detection [PDF]
Adaptive noise cancelling (ANC) is a technique which is very effective to remove additive noises from the contaminated signals. It has been widely used in the fields of telecommunication, radar and sonar signal processing.

Railway wheel-flat and rail surface defect modelling and analysis by time–frequency techniques [PDF]
Damage to the surface of railway wheels and rails commonly occurs in most railways. If not detected, it can result in rapid deterioration and possible failure of rolling stock and infrastructure components causing higher maintenance costs.

MONITORING OF TRACK SECTIONS WITH LONG-PITCH CORRUGATION
The focus of this paper lies on monitoring of the track sections with rail corrugations caused by wheel sliding. Short waves on the running surface of the rail head on low rail are typical for this defect. Long-pitch corrugation is a significant cause of

INFLUENCE OF CONTACT STATE ON PROPAGATION PATH OF RAIL SURFACE CRACK
In order to investigate the formation mechanism of fishhook shaped spalling defect on rail surface, the fatigue calculation model of wheel/rail rolling contact was established and the prediction method of crack propagation path was proposed based on the ...

The effects of surface defects on the fatigue of water and oil lubricated contacts [PDF]
A study into effects of surface defects on the rolling contact fatigue of brass and rail steel has been undertaken on a twin-disc rolling-sliding test machine with both oil and water lubrication.
