This study gives an overview on applications of speed optimisation as one control measure
for intelligent traffic management in rail‐bound public transportation systems. The concept of …

Energy-efficient speed profile optimization of train operations is challenging due to complex
constraints including passage points and speed limits. Moreover, it is critical to perform real …

The new Automatic Train Operation (ATO) system over the standard European Rail Traffic
Management System (ERTMS) will specify the requirements that an automatic train driving …

This paper proposes an approach to facilitate smooth merging of freight trains into a stream
of passenger trains with short headways, to help drivers better control freight trains and …

When two trains travel along the same track in the same direction it is a common safety
requirement that they should always be separated by at least one signal. If the signals are …

There are infinitely many speed profiles that a train could follow between one station and the
next, even if the total journey duration is fixed. Finding the most energy-efficient way to drive …

Dans le secteur des transports, la conception de poste de conduite complexe nécessite plus
de connaissances, de performance et d'attention des conducteurs. Les conducteurs doivent …
