  • Real-Time Decision Making on Helicopter Dispatch During Multiple Forest Fires
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Duckha Jeon for the degree of Master of Science in Sustainable Forest Management presented on May 26, 2020. Title: Real-time Decision Making on Helicopter Dispatch during Multiple Forest Fires. Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Woodam Chung On average there are over 500 forest fires burning more than 3,700 ha each year in South Korea. Between 2014 and 2018, 62 percent of forest fires were multiple fires burning simultaneously in more than two different locations across the country. These multiple fires make it difficult to make decisions of resource dispatch for suppression, as they compete for limited resources, such as helicopters. In order to support and improve decision-making in real-time helicopter dispatch, we developed a conceptual decision framework that lays out the process of information gathering, prioritization, and problem-solving. We developed an integer linear programming (ILP) model to solve helicopter dispatch problems. The model uses real-time data on available helicopter resources and fire spread to develop dispatch decisions while minimizing both suppression costs and burn perimeters. We developed five hypothetical forest fire events and applied the model to demonstrate the utility of the optimization model. We compared the model solutions with the manual solutions obtained from the Korea Forest Service for model validation. Our results show that the optimization model can rapidly analyze various fire suppression scenarios and provide a wide range of helicopter dispatch solution options. This can be useful to decision-makers as it can provide insights about decision sensitivity and bounds. The decision model can provide an analytical tool to assist decision-makers in determining suppression objectives, prioritizing resource allocations, and developing effective and efficient fire suppression solutions.

They have been developed to give faster service for suburban areas where traffic density is high. These have operational features of fast acceleration and fast braking enabling them to function as a stopping train while maintaining the average speeds of fast Mail/express trains. The main features of DEMU are as follows: • Fast and frequent service. • No need for reversals at the terminals as it can be driven from either end. • High acceleration. • Low capital and maintenance costs. • Efficient use of rolling stock. • Electro-pneumatic Brakes 0.2 At present, Diesel Electric Multiple Units (DEMU) are manufactured with AC- DC transmission system. Indian Railways has successfully introduced AC- AC technology on main line 4000HP diesel-electric locomotives. A recent development has been introduction of 3-phase AC-AC technology on EMUs and a large number of AC-AC EMUs are in service in Mumbai suburban area.

These are low-floor, open coach vehicles equipped with a full interior monitoring system, air- conditioning, modern passenger information system and, optionally, with ticket dispensers and ticket punchers. Their interior was adjusted to the needs of passengers with reduced mobility: it fea- tures ramps, folded steps, lifts, broad aisles and a designated space for wheelchairs and bicycles. In the vehicle, motor bogies are used as well as Jacobs bogies (mounted between each two cars). The bogies have a modern gear system and a two-stage spring suspension systems that effectively muffles vibrations, thus enhancing passen- gers’ comfort while travelling. 5 ELECTRIC MULTIPLE UNIT IMPULS The most important features of the vehicle 6 7 ELECTRIC MULTIPLE UNIT IMPULS Available train configurations The IMPULS Electric Multiple Units family can be manufactured in numerous configu- rations.

  • Storage Electric Multiple Units on Partially Electrified Suburban Railway Lines
    Aleksander JAKUBOWSKI1, Natalia KARKOSIŃSKA–BRZOZOWSKA2, Krzysztof KARWOWSKI1, Andrzej WILK1 Gdańsk University of Technology, Faculty of Electrical and Control Engineering (1), Civil and Environmental Engineering (2) doi:10.15199/48.2020.04.33 Storage electric multiple units on partially electrified suburban railway lines Abstract. The paper presents possible environmental, energy and economical gains implied by replacing conventional traction vehicles with independently powered electric multiple units (IPEMU) on partially electrified suburban railways. IPEMUs can operate in two modes of power supply – using an overhead catenary or the on–board battery storage. Appropriate computer simulations were carried out in the Matlab program, indicating the parameters of storage electric multiple units. Streszczenie. W artykule wskazano na potencjalne korzyści energetyczne, środowiskowe i częściowo ekonomiczne wynikające z zastąpienia konwencjonalnych jednostek trakcyjnych nowymi zasobnikowymi zespołami elektrycznymi mogącymi się poruszać na liniach kolejowych częściowo niezelektryfikowanych. Zespoły te mogą pracować w dwóch trybach – zasilania sieciowego lub zasobnikowego. Przeprowadzono odpowiednie symulacje komputerowe w programie Matlab wskazując na parametry zasobnikowych zespołów trakcyjnych. Zasobnikowe zespoły trakcyjne w transporcie podmiejskim Keywords: railway electric traction, vehicle hybrid power, energy storage devices, computer simulation. Słowa kluczowe: elektryczne pojazdy szynowe, hybrydowe zasilanie pojazdu, zasobniki energii, symulacja komputerowa. Introduction Improved versions of electric rail vehicles have been implemented for over 100 years, capable of crossing routes on non–electrified railway sections. The AT 3 series of two– car electric battery traction unit, known as Wittfeld after the name of the designer, eng. Gustav Wittfeld [1] is an interesting vehicle from the beginning of the 20th century. The train, which could seat 90 passengers, was powered by two 62 kW motors and reached speeds of up to 60 km/h with a tare weight of 60 t.
