There are very similar features between Chinese Railways and European Railways in terms of train operation mode and train control. ETCS (European Train Control System), supported by the European Union and the European Industrials, has been finalized as the technical standard of train control systems in Europe after more than ten years effort. There is more than 71,500 kilometers of railway oper...

At the time of writing we entered the final stage of implementing the crew rostering system Harmony CDR to facilitate the planning of catering crews on board of the Thalys, the High Speed Train connecting Paris, Cologne, Brussels, Amsterdam, and Geneva. Harmony CDR optimally supports the creation of crew rosters in two ways. Firstly, Harmony CDR contains a powerful algorithm to automatically ge...

The next generation high-speed train system, HEMU-400X, has been developed in Korea since 2007. HEMU-400X means High-speed Electric Multiple Unit – 300 experimental. Objectives of HEMU-400X project is development of next generation high-speed electric multiple unit with maximum operation speed 370km/h and maximum test speed 400km/h, energy efficiently and environment friendly. At present, the d...

In this paper, virtual reality sound effects for high-speed train simulation system using wavelet denoising algorithm is studied. As one important part of the high speed train operation system, virtual reality system visualizes most parameter in train operation process. Sound effect system provides sound information to the whole simulation system. It is greatly significance to the whole effect ...

India’s population has skyrocketed to about 122 crores .In such a scenario a high speed train technology for a swift transportation of the ever-increasing population is required .Not only speed is the sole aim but passenger safety, comfort and punctuality in railways is the need of the hour. Indian railways are subjected to regular delays in their railway setup. This comparative study focuses o...

high speed trains are an indispensable part of rapid transportation systems in many countries. as the fastest means of transport on the ground, these trains are extremely sensitive to the terrain and track conditions. geometrical irregularities and mechanical characteristics of the track, together with inconsistencies in the lane (including bridges that support the track) are considered importa...
