Abstract

Energy efficient train operation includes four levels for energy saving: energy efficient driving, real-time multi-train coordination and rescheduling, energysaving timetabling, and energy-saving planning.For a fully automatic operation system, it provides a flexible way to coordinate trains.The coordination of trains can improve some system performances, such as the efficient use of regenerative energy.The efficient use of energy regenerated by other trains which are during braking phase can contribute to reducing energy consumption.In general, the approaches of coordinated train control for using regenerative energy can be divided into two types: train dwell time control and train running time control.This paper proposes an approach for coordinating trains in fully automatic operation system by modifying running time between adjacent stations.Simulation studies are performed and the usage of regenerative energy and average passenger waiting time is analysed by using the proposed method.It is shown that improvements in the usage of regenerative energy can be achieved by using the proposed method.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Up to four energy-efficiency levels can be distinguished in railway scenarios: energy-efficient driving, coordination and re-scheduling of multiple trains in real time, creation of energy-efficient timetables, and energy-saving planning.

    “However, note that up to four energy-efficiency levels can be distinguished in railway scenarios [136]: energy-efficient driving, the coordination and re-scheduling of multiple trains in real time, the creation of energy-efficient timetables, and energy-saving planning.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
