  2. 1. Track circuits’ robustness : Modeling, measurement and simulation

    Author : Emilio Rodriguez; Ajit Kumar Verma; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Track circuit; Relay; False positive signals; Signalling in railway; Modelling; Simulation; Testing; Robustness; Interoperability; Reliability; Railway Infrastructure; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance Engineering;

    Abstract : In countries with rough weather conditions, frequent delays cause railway companies to waste time and money. Many of these delays are related to the train detection systems, as the old DC track circuits are still used in some countries, including Sweden, our case study. READ MORE

  4. 2. Simulation Studies for Improved Efficiency in Road and Rail Freight Transports

    Author : Ingrid Johansson; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Behzad Kordnejad; Carl-William Palmqvist; C. Tyler Dick; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heavy-duty vehicle platooning; road traffic simulation; intelligent transport systems; optimal control; longitudinal cruise control; fuel economy; railway traffic simulation; microscopic simulation; macroscopic simulation; freight trains; early departures; capacity; railway stations; strategic planning; timetable compression; UIC Code 406; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The demand for road and rail freight transport continues to grow with the expanding economy, while the climate crisis requires reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, tools and solutions for reducing fossil fuel use and enabling more efficient use of infrastructure are needed. READ MORE

  5. 3. On the Influence of Rail Vehicle Parameters on the Derailment Process and its Consequences

    Author : Dan Brabie; Evert Andersson; Johan Oscarsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; train; railway; rail vehicle; accident; incident; derailment; bogie design; simulation; wheel; sleeper; impact; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at systematically studying the possibilities of minimising devastatingconsequences of high-speed derailments by appropriate measures and features in thetrain design, including the running gear. The course of events immediately afterderailments is studied with respect to whether the train stays upright and close to thetrack centre line or deviates laterally with probably serious consequences.

  7. 5. Optimized wet clutches : simulation and tribotesting

    Author : Pär Marklund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : Wet clutches are used in a variety of different machinery. Wet clutches and brakes are frequently used to distribute torque in vehicle drive-trains. The clutches can be located in e.g. READ MORE
