Influence of the Oxide Layer Thickness on the Behavior of the Electrical Wheel–Rail Contact in Static Conditions by Luna Haydar, Florent Loete, Frédéric Houzé, Karim Slimani, Fabien Guiche, Philippe Testé

“…This is achieved in many countries by electrically detecting their presence using so-called “track circuits” installed at regular intervals on each track, designed to detect when the wheels and axles of a train are shunting the two rails and to act accordingly on the signaling system. Such a detection principle is highly dependent on the quality of the electrical contacts between rails and wheels; the occurrence of high wheel–rail contact resistances can induce malfunctions known as “deshunting”, when the system is unable to judge the presence or absence of a train on a section of track. …”
