PROBLEM OF INCREASING THE ACCURACY OF RAILWAY CARRIAGES WEIGHING IN MOTION
Denis M. Senyanskiy
Abstract:
In this work we represent our experience in building railroad scales for weighing carriages in motion. A moving train weighing process consists of load cells signal filtration, axle weight calculation and carriage and locomotive identification. We created several filtration algorithms for clearing a load cell signal from bad oscillations that take place in a system. Also we built a carriage identification algorithm that determines how many carriages are being weighed at the moment. The difficulty in this field is that there are a lot of different types of carriages and locomotives on the railways of The Russian Federation, all of them have different lengths, axle arrangements and bases. Also we are working on a scales for weighing tanks with liquids in motion.
