DOI: 10.1049/iet-its.2016.0154

Abstract: Acquiring the relative displacement of adjacent vehicles when designing a distributed controller for a heavy-haul train is a critical issue. As heavy-haul trains run in complex, varying environments, the relative displacement of adjacent vehicles may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00423114.2024.2353705

Abstract: The heavy-haul train dynamic performance under emergency braking is complex and directly affects the reliability and running safety. To reveal the heavy-haul train dynamic behaviour in emergency braking process on the long downhill segments, a… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit"

DOI: 10.1177/09544097211008293

Abstract: Head-end trains are more efficient than Distributed Power trains in terms of train marshalling. This paper studied an unprecedent real-world engineering problem to hill-start a long heavy haul train at a 1.2% up-hill gradient by… read more here.
