  • Abstract
    The paper examines the feasibility for diagnostic of the railway vehicle spring system using accelerometer sensors. An electronic measurement system has been developed to register the accelerations at different nodes in the vehicle and acquire the measured data into PC using DAQ. The records have been post processed in the graphical user interface MATLAB environment. The results confirm the possibility to use board electronic equipment to determine real time the spring system condition.
