    Abstract: A system and method for detecting the presence of wheel flats on rail vehicles. The system includes a voltage source, one side of which is connected to a first rail of a track and the other to a second rail extending parallel with the first rail in a manner whereby the current circuit includes the rim of the wheel being sensed. The connection points are spaced in the longitudinal direction of the track such that the distance between the connection points is shorter than the smallest axle distance occurring in the vehicle. The circuit also includes an impedance and a detecting means connected over a portion of the impedance to sense changes in voltage resulting from a break in the circuit caused by a wheel flat.
