Abstract
A method for monitoring the state of components of a railway vehicle, wherein sensors for capturing loads acting on the components are operated, the measurement values thereof are fed as input values to an analysis unit for analyzing the wear state, wherein the current position of the railway vehicle is processed as a signal to this end, wherein the current velocity of the railway vehicle is recorded over time, from which a v-t profile is generated and compared to a stored v-t profile in order to determine the current position as a further input value for monitoring the state by stochastically comparing both profiles.
