摘要
A new inspection system for railway wheels using the Doppler Effect is presented in this work. The proposed system analyses the rail-wheel contact by frequency and phase shifts. Cracks on the wheel tread are determined while the train moves at a low speed. A special rail is used to propagate monochromatic surface waves. When a wheel on the measuring rail moves at constant speed, the received signal will present a regular frequency shift related with the movement speed. The difference between the emitted and the received frequencies will change if any defect on the wheel tread is detected.
