  • Selection of a New Hardware and Software Platform for Railway Interlocking
    Selection of a new hardware and software platform for railway interlocking Arghya Kamal Bhattacharya School of Electrical Engineering Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of Master of Science in Technology. Espoo 27.04.2020 Supervisor Prof. Valeriy Vyatkin Advisor MSc. Tommi Kokkonen Copyright ⃝c 2020 Arghya Kamal Bhattacharya Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of the master’s thesis Author Arghya Kamal Bhattacharya Title Selection of a new hardware and software platform for railway interlocking Degree programme Automation and Electrical Engineering Major Control, Robotics and Autonomous Systems Code of major ELEC3025 Supervisor Prof. Valeriy Vyatkin Advisor MSc. Tommi Kokkonen Date 27.04.2020 Number of pages 82+34 Language English Abstract The interlocking system is one of the main actors for safe railway transportation. In most cases, the whole system is supplied by a single vendor. The recent regulations from the European Union direct for an “open” architecture to invite new game changers and reduce life-cycle costs. The objective of the thesis is to propose an alternative platform that could replace a legacy interlocking system. In the thesis, various commercial off-the-shelf hardware and software products are studied which could be assembled to compose an alternative interlocking platform. The platform must be open enough to adapt to any changes in the constituent elements and abide by the proposed baselines of new standardization initiatives, such as ERTMS, EULYNX, and RCA. In this thesis, a comparative study is performed between these products based on hardware capacity, architecture, communication protocols, programming tools, security, railway certifications, life-cycle issues, etc.

  • Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe
    Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe Version 3 December 2017 This publication was prepared by Oleh Shchuryk, Research & Projects Manager, ECG – the Association of European Vehicle Logistics. Foreword The project to produce this book on ‘Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe’ was initiated during the ECG Land Transport Working Group meeting in January 2014, Frankfurt am Main. Initially, it was suggested by the members of the group that Oleh Shchuryk prepares a short briefing paper about the current status quo of rail transport and FVLs by rail in Europe. It was to be a concise document explaining the complex nature of rail, its difficulties and challenges, main players, and their roles and responsibilities to be used by ECG’s members. However, it rapidly grew way beyond these simple objectives as you will see. The first draft of the project was presented at the following Land Transport WG meeting which took place in May 2014, Frankfurt am Main. It received further support from the group and in order to gain more knowledge on specific rail technical issues it was decided that ECG should organise site visits with rail technical experts of ECG member companies at their railway operations sites. These were held with DB Schenker Rail Automotive in Frankfurt am Main, BLG Automotive in Bremerhaven, ARS Altmann in Wolnzach, and STVA in Valenton and Paris. As a result of these collaborations, and continuous research on various rail issues, the document was extensively enlarged. The document consists of several parts, namely a historical section that covers railway development in Europe and specific EU countries; a technical section that discusses the different technical issues of the railway (gauges, electrification, controlling and signalling systems, etc.); a section on the liberalisation process in Europe; a section on the key rail players, and a section on logistics services provided by rail.

The “European Train Control System” ETCS supervises train movement in regards to speed and distance travelled, based on information provided by an underlying signalling system . ETCS consists of onboard and trackside subsystems performing standardised functions and are communicating via Eurobalise, Euroloop and GSM-R using standardised protocols . ETCS provides full cab signalling and can be used either as an overlay onto classical signalling systems with lineside signals or without them . The term ERTMS is used when referring to ETCS and GSM-R as one system . ETCS has been developed to replace all existing mainline train control systems in Europe © Siemens AG 2012 page 4 Wildenrath, 17 February 2012 Infrastructure & Cities Sector, Mobility and Logistics What ETCS is .

  • Research on the Interface Solution with Trains for ATP System Stabilization
    Research on the interface solution with trains for ATP system stabilization 1D.S.Kim, 2B.G.Ryu Korail, Daejeon, Korea1; Korail, Daejeon, Korea 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT The introduction of ATP (Automatic Train Protection) system which is being pursued recently can be a dramatic project upgrading the signaling section of railway rolling stock, by improving track capacity and safety, since we already realize that signaling facility now takes a great effect on not only infrastructure but also selecting car types of rolling stock and deciding system newly introduced. This study examined the measure to acquire interface with ATP system in the system installation to achieve safety operation of railway rolling stock. Even if the onboard signaling system has been verified home and abroad and has superb quality, the optimal installation measure should be sought, considering the condition with peripheral devices so that the system can exhibit its required performance when it is installed in rolling stock. Especially, the interface measure with braking system to acquire safety, and level transition solution measure between ground system and onboard system following the mixed use of signaling system in ground-level section (ATC/ATP/ATS) should be perfectly presented, and the measure to collect and handle various information - speed detection, the measure to acknowledge insulation section, recording operation information, etc. - should be prepared. To successfully settle down ATP system, the full verification on interface with ATP system shall be preceded even from the design stage of rolling stock, and in case of upgrade project for rolling stocks which have already been operated, train operator, system manufacturer, and railway policy decision-maker should proceed with a project after having fully understood and prepared a strategy on the system.
