The article discusses the solution to problem of underground railway transport slipping in dynamic modes, which occurs when there is a significant difference speeds driving and driven pairs wheels. state rail surfaces largely determines coefficient adhesion, therefore, using mathematical model, condition for dependence magnitude tractive effort selected. For effective acceleration deceleration ...

the use of micro-controllers in actuators provides extended flexibility for on-line data acquisition and sophisticated control implementation. however, attempts to utilize the excellent features of induction motor that is deemed by its strength, robustness, high torque, and relatively low cost in actuators face a fundamental control design challenge. the purpose of this paper is to introduce th...

The energy consumption modeling and the optimization solution for the traction control of high-speed trains are addressed in this paper. Based on the analysis of the operation process, an improved train traction analysis with the multi-mass modeling approach is presented, and the corresponding energy consumption model is investigated. By considering the issues of the passenger comfort and trave...

Zhangjiakou regional network belongs to the Jibei power grid in Northern China and locates at the midway of the power transmission corridor from Inner-Mongolia to the rest of Jibei power grid. Zhangjiakou regional network consists of several area networks connected to the main network through 500kV stations. In recent years, renewable energy in rural areas has developed rapidly and electrified ...

This paper presents the design of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) for traction applications of electric vehicles (EVs). The design is based on the stator geometry of an existing commercial available induction traction motor. The rotor configurations considered in this study are the surface mounted magnet (SPM) and the inset permanent magnet (IPM) types. Both designs are investigated...

In this paper, an optimal longitudinal slip ratio system for real-time identification of electric vehicle (EV) with motored wheels is proposed based on the adhesion between tire and road surface. First and foremost, the optimal longitudinal slip rate torque control can be identified in real time by calculating the derivative and slip rate of the adhesion coefficient. Secondly, the vehicle speed...

Electric traction system uses voltage source inverter technology for three phase electric locomotives. This paper proposes Z source inverters to control the speed of locomotive drives. The acceleration region and free running region of operation of locomotive is considered for analysis. The control strategy for Z source inverter used is simple boost control.
