'ROSHAN' stands for ROlling Stock Health ANalyst and refers to some technology developed by Konkan Railway in association with Bhabha Atomic Research Centre for monitoring the running characteristics of coaches and wagons. Accelerometers mounted on rolling stock record the oscillations of the coach or wagon while in use and computer circuitry analyzes the motions looking for anything that deviates too much from the normal bounds for that class of wagon or coach. The aim is to get early indications of problems in suspensions, wheels and axles, or the wagon or coach structure before it is too late.
