  • Scheduling of Ticket Inspectors in Deutsche Bahn Inter-City Express Trains∗
    Scheduling of Ticket Inspectors in Deutsche Bahn Inter-City Express Trains∗ Nathan May1, Hai Nguyen2, and Ruby Abrams3 1Department of Mathematics, Washington State University, U.S.A. 2School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, U.K. 3Department of Mathematics, University of Arizona, U.S.A. August 15, 2019 We study the underdeveloped Inspector Scheduling Problem. The Deutsche Bahn want to to maximise the number of passenger tickets inspected given already set train schedules with their limited resources, the passenger ticket inspectors. We formulate this problem as a network flow and implement this as a Mixed Integer Programme. We account for lack of data by estimating Origin-Destination Matrices and discuss complexity of the problem. We obtain empirical results of run time of the algorithm as a function of number of inspectors and conjecture that this problem is NP-hard. We also propose heuristic methods to solve this problem.

  • Operational Experiences with Onboard Diagnosis System for High Speed Trains
    Operational Experiences with Onboard Diagnosis System for High Speed Trains R. Sunder, A. Kolbasseff, K. Kieninger, A. Röhm, J. Walter Institute for Safety Technology (ISTec) GmbH Forschungsgelände, 85748 Garching, Federal Republic of Germany 1. INTRODUCTION The primary objective of the project “Onboard diagnosis system for high-speed trains” is to guarantee the high availability of InterCity-Express (ICE) trains during the whole lifetime using condition based maintenance procedures. This ensures also a significant improvement of operational safety of railway vehicles. The detailed specification of an InterCity-Express onboard diagnosis system requires therefore the establishment of broad basis of data and knowledge to determine appropriate sensor positions, measuring principles, assessment algorithms and failure-specific features. Condition monitoring algorithms were tested by failure simulations with ICE trailers on the track. A prototype onboard diagnosis system was specified, realised and installed – operational experiences and lessons learned will be presented. 2. SCOPE OF ICE ONBOARD DIAGNOSIS As a subcontractor of Deutsche Bahn AG, ISTec started in 1999 with generic investigations on incipient failure detection methods for high speed trains. One issue of this contract was a certain know-how transfer from diagnosis systems developed for pump and turbines in nuclear technology to InterCity Express vehicles. From the early beginning it was evident, that there were basic differences between pumps and trains concerning the excitation functions: Stationary operating machines normally are forced by random and steady-state excitations, trains in operation are affected by a mixture of non-linear excitations and transient effects like impacts from the track. Furthermore, trains are running with different speeds on different roadways.

  • Background Information Siemens Mobility Gmbh Munich, 26 May 2021
    Background Information Siemens Mobility GmbH Munich, 26 May 2021 The ICE celebrates its 30th birthday On May 29, 1991, six ICE 1 trains converged in Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe from different directions and officially inaugurated the era of high-speed rail travel in Germany. The path to this event was paved by a comprehensive phase of research and development dating back to the 1970s conducted by the Federal Ministries for Transportation and for Research and Technology, Deutsche Bundesbahn (today Deutsche Bahn (DB)), and a consortium of companies. The goal of the project, in addition to the systematic research for a suitable wheel-rail system, was the development of a high-speed trainset comprised of two locomotives-like power cars and passenger cars that could reach speeds between 300 and 350 km/h. The power cars were developed by an industrial consortium, led by Krupp Industrietechnik, with Krauss-Maffei and Thyssen Henschel. AEG, BBC and Siemens were responsible for developing the electrical equipment. The Krauss-Maffei locomotive business was acquired by Siemens in 2001. 1985: InterCityExperimental (ICE/V) – Class 410 In March 1985, the aerodynamic power cars of the InterCityExperimental, class 410, were turned over to DB. Together with a measurement car and two demonstration passenger cars, the experimental train began practical testing in 1986. Some of the components were taken over from class 120 locomotives. A new pantograph was developed for the top speeds of 350 km/h. Power cars and passenger cars were braked for the first time with wear-free eddy current brakes and disk brakes, and the power cars were also equipped with regenerative brakes to recuperate braking energy and feed it back into the power line.

  • Alstom to Equip Another 19 ICE High-Speed Trains with ETCS
    PRESS RELEASE European signalling standard for German High-speed trains Alstom to equip another 19 ICE high-speed trains with ETCS 12 January 2020 – Alstom has obtained an order by Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) to retrofit 19 additional ICE1 high-speed trains with the newest ETCS1 signalling standard. The retrofitting work, worth more than €10 million, is scheduled to be completed by September 2021. The project is a follow-up contract for the ICE 1, of which Alstom had already retrofitted 39 trains for the commissioning of the VDE 8 high-speed line connecting Berlin and Munich. Since the opening of the high-speed line passenger numbers have more than doubled. ‘We are delighted that Deutsche Bahn has again passed a vote of confidence KEY FIGURES in Alstom for this complex retrofit. This is a further step towards making ⚫ 19 ICE 1 high-speed trains to Germany fit for digital rail guarantees Deutsche Bahn a uniform and flexibly be equipped with ETCS deployable ICE fleet’, says Dr. Joerg Nikutta, Alstom Managing Director ⚫ 39 ICE 1 high-speed trains Germany & Austria. already equipped for the Berlin-Munich high-speed line The contract includes development, design and manufacture of the digital signalling system ETCS Level 2 Baseline 3 as well as its installation, connection to existing train control systems and commissioning. The new system will ensure a continuous communication between the vehicle and the track. The retrofitting work will be implemented in cooperation with several Alstom sites: Berlin, Braunschweig (installation design and project management), Charleroi, Belgium (product development, validation and assembly for ETCS) and Lyon/Villeurbanne, France (manufacture of components).

It explains how its on-going development caters to the customers’ requirements, how it is organized and how this application-oriented work process has influenced development of the fourth generation of the Velaro family. The article closes with a brief overview of the Velaro D project – the latest generation of interoperable multi-system trains for Europe to be ordered by Deutsche Bahn AG. 1 Development basis and control system with sophisticated diag- climb grades as steep as 40‰ and its high projects nostic functions, and the realization of braking performance, the cost-optimized the ICE 3 in two versions: one as nation- alignment of high-speed lines, such as 1.1 ICE 3 – the basis for al single-system trainset and one as inter- the new Cologne–Frankfurt/Main route, high-speed trainsets with nationally operable multi-system trainset. were soon a reality.
