This contribution introduces a virtual measurement device for the reconstruction of the in practice unmeasureable rail-wheel contact forces. For this aim the Proportional-Integral (PI)-Observer is used. Then, the concept of a measurement sleeve at the axle bearing is shown. With the displacement measurements resulting from the sleeve using the PI-Observer, an estimation of the tangential contact force and the dynamic normal force is possible. Using the simulation of the rail-wheel contact, the feasibility of the estimation of the contact force behavior is shown. As an outlook for further applications of the PI-Observer in the context of rail-wheel contact force estimation, the reconstruction of contact forces by using acceleration measurements is demonstrated by an example of an elastic beam for the first time.
