CFD Simulation of High-speed Trains: Train-induced Wind Conditions on Trackside Installations
Speed is the created air flow as well as slipstream effects as the trains move. These effects can have some level of impact on fuel and energy efficiency of the train, but their other important outcome is the emergence of turbulent flows at higher speeds which can cause aerodynamic drag forces followed by noise and vibration. Thus, slipstream effects have significant importanc...
متن کاملScheduling Train Crews: a case study for the Dutch Railways
In this paper the problem of scheduling train crew is considered. We discuss a general framework of which the method for solving the train crew scheduling problem is a special case. In particular, our method is a heuristic branch-and-price algorithm suitable for large scale crew scheduling problems. This algorithm is applied to a real life train guard scheduling problem which is provided to us ...
متن کاملPromotion of Local to Global Operation in Train Control System
Railway interlocking system is a safety critical system. Its failure can cause the loss of human life, severe injuries and loss of money. Therefore the complication of this type of system requires advanced methodologies, which provide complete security and quality of a system. One way of achieving this goal is by using formal methods, which are mathematically based languages, techniques and too...
متن کاملMulti-Agent Communication Based Train Control System for Indian Railways: The Structural Design
Indian Railways (IR) work on static block signaling (SBS) system to control mixed train traffic. Current state of operation can be improved by using communication based train control (CBTC) system with moving block signaling (MBS). The mixed traffic conditions in IR restrict the direct use of CBTC systems used elsewhere and thus first necessitated study of existing CBTC systems followed by deve...
متن کاملCausal Analysis of Passenger Train Accidents on Freight Rail Corridors
A number of economic, technical and political factors have limited the development of new, dedicated, very-high-speed rail systems in North America. Consequently, most, near-term development of improved or expanded passenger rail service in the U.S. will involve use of existing railroad infrastructure or rights of way. Comprehensive understanding of train accidents on shared-use corridors is cr...
