The article is devoted to the vibration characteristics of one element, namely the rolling bearing andmethod, which is based on both bench and field tests and proven to be effective to identify items of axlebearing. The method is based on static kurtosis parameter, which remains constant for good bearing,irrespective of load and speed, but changes with the development of damage. The extent of damage can beestimated from the distribution of this parameter in the selected frequency intervals. Thus, the evaluation ofbearing condition can be conducted with minimal use of information about its past state. Most other methodsused to detect damage in a significant advantage of the data analysis, so this method could be a significantachievement in the field of detection of defects in the bearings or at least will allow you to create simple andcheap method. Like most other simple methods of damage detection, this method does not allow to defineprecisely the nature of the defect and to obtain such information it is necessary to use more sophisticateddiagnostic methods.

In this study, a method for detecting the railway surface defects called “squats” using the ABA (Axle Box Acceleration) measurement of trains was proposed. ABA prototype design, implementation, and field tests were conducted to derive and verify the results. The field test was performed using a proven precision measurement system, and the measured data were signal-processed using a Matlab program. The algorithm used to determine the position of the squats was developed based on wavelet spectrum analysis. This study was verified for a section of a domestic general line and, following field verification for the section, squats was detected with a hit rate of about 88.2%. The main locations where the squats occurred were the rail welds and the joint section, and it was confirmed that in some sections, unsupported sleepers occurred at the locations where the squats occurred.

The State special primary acceleration measurement standard for gravimetry (GET 190-2019), its composition, principle of operation and basic metrological characteristics are presented. This standard is on the upper level of reference for free-fall acceleration measurements. Its accuracy and reliability were improved as a result of optimisation of the adjustment procedures for measurement systems and its integration within the upgraded systems, units and modern hardware components. A special attention was given to adjusting the corrections applied to measurement results with respect to procedural, physical and technical limitations. The used investigation methods made it possibled to confirm the measurement range of GET 190-2019 and to determine the contributions of main sources of errors and the total value of these errors. The measurement characteristics and GET 90-2019 were confirmed by the results obtained from measurements of the absolute value of the free fall acceleration at the gravimetrical site “Lomonosov-1” and by their collation with the data of different dates obtained from measurements by high-precision foreign and domestic gravimeters. Topicality of such measurements ensues from the requirements to handle the applied problems that need data on parameters of the Earth gravitational field, to be adequately faced. Geophysics and navigation are the main fields of application for high-precision measurements in this field.
