STUDY OF TRACK IRREGULARITY INSPECTION SYSTEM WITH ACCELEROMETER

Measurements of rail profile and alignment are done by the mid-chord offset system; this is suitable for ride quality determinations of conventional vehicles. Japanese National Railways has been experimenting with a track profile measuring instrument for use on the Shinkansen which consists of an accelerometer mounted on the journalbox of one wheelset with the signal double integrated to give an absolute profile.
