Application of advanced fault diagnosis technology in electric locomotives
As the continuous development of intelligent mechatronic systems and robots, the fault diagnosis technology is making full advances in many practical applications. In this paper, an advanced fault diagnosis system, which consists of logical control units, microcontrollers, colour display screens and an industry PC, is developed for SS7E locomotives in China. Based on thoroughly analysing the st...
متن کاملScheduling Locomotives and Car Transfers in Freight Transport
We present a new model for a strategic locomotive scheduling problem arising at the Deutsche Bahn AG. The model is based on a multi-commodity min-cost flow formulation that is also used for public bus scheduling problems. However, several new aspects have to be additionally taken into account, such as cyclic departures of the trains, time windows on starting and arrival times, network-load depe...
متن کاملOptimizing Fueling Decisions for Locomotives in Railroad Networks
Even though rail transportation is one of the most fuel efficient forms of surface transportation, fueling costs are one of the highest operating cost head for railroad companies. In US, unlike Europe, fueling costs are indeed, by far, the single highest operating cost. For larger companies with several thousands of miles of rail network, the fuel bills often run into several billions of dollar...
متن کاملTesting Methods and Analysis of the Main Electrical Properties of Modernized Locomotives
In the Laboratory of Traction and Rolling Stock systematic research into the methods of testing a traction drive, using the real models has been conducted. The aim of this research was to completely define all elements of the system for testing the main electrical and mechanical properties which include the selection of measuring transducers, the selection and implementation of the system for c...
متن کاملStrategic, Tactical and Real-time Planning of Locomotives at Norfolk Southern Using Approximate Dynamic Programming
Locomotive planning has been a popular application of classical optimization models for decades, but with very few success stories. There are a host of complex rules governing how locomotives should be used. In addition, it is necessary to simultaneously manage locomotive inventories by balancing the need for holding power against the need for power at other yards. At the same time, we have to ...
