Abstract A switched Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) strategy for time efficient
energy control of railway vehicles, while fulfilling constraints on velocity, journey time and …

In this article an adaptive controller is developed in order to estimate the inertia tensor, the
mass and the wind parameters (considering wind as a parameter in the input) for the …

This research is a railway industry related project, which is concerned with finding
improvements in railway traction and wheel slip control in electric drives. A new approach …

Railway transport is becoming an increasingly preferable transportation system worldwide.
Due to the demand and emerging technologies in the railway sector, more powerful rail …

In today's age, green transportation remains one of the most important topics of research.
The main goal is to promote vehicle technologies and driving styles which are energy …

A method is proposed to enhance the overall braking performance of a railroad vehicle
(train) by properly exchanging information among the single control units. Taking advantage …
