Wheel Impact Load Detection System (WILD)
A prototype automated system for On-Line estimation of Wheel Impact Loads and detection of Wheel Flats of running trains has been developed. The Instrumentation System consisting of both Hardware and Software components has then been rigorously field tested at AjgainRailway Station, near Lucknow for more than two years. Strain-GuageTechnology has been employed and data is collected over 24-channels along a rail length of five meters. Intelligent software algorithms and codes have been developed and embedded into the hardware processors.
Derailment Detection Devices
This project envisages development of On-Board equipment for sensing derailment possibilities of rolling stock. Development includes appropriate instrumentation and signal processing strategy and its integration with the existing brake mechanism for minimizing losses due to dragging of derailed vehicle. Presently there is no instrumentation on Indian Railways for detecting derailment possibilities.
Measuring Wheel Technology
Development of an instrumented wheel is important for a variety of safety related reasons. The project Measuring Wheel Technology is expected to serve as a major tool for carrying out studies on rail-wheel interactive forces, derailment analysis, wheel profile optimization, bogie hunting etc. Measuring Wheel is also essential for analysis of various types of stresses coming on rail and wheels during introduction of any new rolling stock in Indian Railways.

Onboard Diagnosis
The objective of the project is to develop an On-board Diagnostics for Diesel and Electric locomotives through a network based real time control system. Diagnostics on existing locomotives is presently confined to the trouble shooting knowledge of the driver. The exercise includes development of appropriate instrumentation and signal processing strategy for various equipments which form part of the transmission and also for other auxiliary machines on board the locomotives.
