Proper operation of railway vehicles is the basis for the functioning of a safe railway system. At the same time, it is not possible to talk about the safe use of a vehicle without adequately carried out maintenance processes. Due to legislative changes in August 2017, the maintenance system of railway vehicles has changed significantly. In most cases, it is the entities responsible for maintenance that are fully liable for the shape of the maintenance documentation, not the national security authority (in Poland the President of the Rail Transport Office) as has been the case so far. That is a big challenge for everyone involved in maintaining railway vehicles. The article presents the system of maintenance of railway vehicles as critical for the railway system safety, with the division into those registered in the National Railway Register and the unregistered ones. National and EU requirements for maintenance systems as well as the conditions for the implementation of "changes" in these systems have been presented, based, among others, on the results of the risk assessment of the threats they generate.

Prawidłowa eksploatacja pojazdów kolejowych jest podstawą funkcjonowania bezpiecznego systemu kolejowego. Jednocześnie nie można mówić o bezpiecznym użytkowaniu pojazdu bez prawidłowego przeprowadzenia procesów utrzymaniowych W związku ze zmianami legislacyjnymi w sierpniu 2017 r. system utrzymania pojazdów kolejowych uległ istotnym zmianom. W większości przypadków to na podmiotach odpowiedzialnych za utrzymanie spoczęła pełna odpowiedzialność za kształt dokumentacji utrzymaniowej, nie zaś na krajowej władzy bezpieczeństwa (w przypadku Polski na Prezesie Urzędu Transportu Kolejowego), jak było do tej pory. To duże wyzwanie dla wszystkich zajmujących się utrzymywaniem pojazdów kolejowych. Artykuł przedstawia krytyczny dla bezpieczeństwa systemu kolejowego system utrzymania pojazdów kolejowych, z podziałem na pojazdy zarejestrowane w Krajowym Rejestrze Pojazdów Kolejowych i niezarejestrowane. Zaprezentowano wymagania krajowe i unijne dla systemów utrzymania, jak również warunki wdrażania „zmian” w tych systemach, oparte m.in. na wynikach oceny ryzyka generowanych przez nie zagrożeń.

Based on the example of 6Dg type diesel locomotives, the paper presents a new maintenance strategy concerning periodical checks at the P1 maintenance level. Currently, such locomotives are sent off to service points every 102 hours of operation or every 14 days for a P1 level check. Studies demonstrate that the average distance to be covered by a locomotive to arrive at a service point is in excess of 60.0 km, and the quantity of fuel consumed is more than 88 litres. It is costly and time consuming to have locomotives out of service and considerable resources of the railway carrier are engaged which could be made use of in the transport process. The aim of the newly developed strategy of P1 checks is to eliminate the need for locomotives to exit their routes to reach rolling stock maintenance points. The control/diagnostic and maintenance activities specified in the Maintenance System Documentation will be performed by socalled mobile maintenance points. The development of the new strategy required: identification of the current condition of the maintenance system, development of the concept of a new strategy of P1 maintenance checks, conduct of studies and operational analyses for SM42 series locomotives, performance of a durability, reliability analysis, assessment of safety together with an analysis of the risks involved in the proposed changes. In order to review and assess the efficiency of the new strategy, an observed operation of selected locomotives was conducted together with a railway carrier. During the study, the maintenance activities and processes were monitored and the costs of P1 checks were recorded. The analysis of efficiency of the new strategy of performing P1 checks without the need for a locomotive to exit its route to reach a rolling stock maintenance point demonstrated that depending on the distance covered by the locomotive to reach a maintenance point, the unit costs of a P1 level check are lower by up to 67.1% compared with the currently applied method.

W ostatnich latach, w Europie i na świecie obserwuje się dynamiczny rozwój kolei dużych prędkości. Przy rosnących prędkościach, aerodynamika pojazdów kolejowych staje się coraz bardziej istotnym zagadnieniem. W artykule odniesiono się do problemu stateczności pojazdów przy wietrze bocznym i omówiono wpływ prędkości pojazdu na to zjawisko. Do określania sił aerodynamicznych występujących w tym zagadnieniu wykorzystuje się sześć współczynników aerodynamicznych. Opisano metody służące do ich wyznaczania – badania modelowe w tunelach wiatrowych i badania numeryczne z użyciem symulacji CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), w odniesieniu do normy PN-EN 14067-6:2018-10 i wymagań TSI. Przedstawiono wyniki wstępnych badań własnych, których celem było rozpoznanie możliwości obliczeniowych analiz CFD jako narzędzia do numerycznego wyznaczania współczynników aerodynamicznych na potrzeby dalszych badań prowadzących do opracowania metody analizy drgań układu pociąg – most, poddanego działaniu wiatru bocznego.

In recent years, dynamic development of high-speed railways is observed in Europe and in the world. Due to the train speeds increase, aerodynamics of railway vehicles becomes more and more important issue. In the paper, the cross-wind stability problem of a railway vehicle and the influence of the train speed on this phenomenon is discussed. As a derailment risk analysis requires to determine in total six cross-wind aerodynamic forces and moments acting on a given vehicle, a knowledge of six associated with them aerodynamic coefficients is a groundwork for train stability analysis. Two most common methods of analysis of air flow around trains are pointed out – wind tunnel testing and CFD method (Computational Fluid Dynamics method). Both methods are described in the paper, in reference to PN-EN 14067-6:2018-10 and TSI requirements, and later a CFD method is applied to examine a basic train model. The main aim of this preliminary research was to recognize CFD method as a tool for a further research on cross-wind-induced vibrations of a train - bridge system.

The article discusses the design project of a speed bump enabling the monitoring of the vehicle chassis. The proposed analysis of the chassis will serve the purpose of reducing the threats connected with undesirable interference with in the vehicle’s structure. Additionally, it can allow for identification of foreign objects located under the vehicle, in order to prevent their uncontrolled transfer into or from the protected zone. The duralumin housing with cameras and sensors installed, as well as the matrix of magnetic sensors mounted on the speed bump, make it possible to identify characteristic magnetic anomalies, enabling the comparison of the "map" of the distribution of the magnetic levels of specific vehicle at points representing various time spans. At the same time, magnetic sensors are capable of detecting magnetic objects mounted under the vehicle. The article presents the results of the selection and optimization of individual elements of the monitoring system, and their real operation. The application in the Labview environment ensures the registration and analysis of signals appropriate for the system. The entire detection process can be observed on an ongoing basis on the computer screen, and recordings of various time lapses can be digitally compared by means of processing of the obtained images. The used functions minimize threats connected with unauthorized use of vehicles entering the protected zone where particular safety measures are applied.

Content available remote Adaptive slip&slide control system design in railway applications
EN
Adhesion coefficient and the resultant normal force occurred at the wheel-rail contact determine braking and traction forces in railway applications. Due to the limits on controlling the resultant normal force, maximization of the adhesion coefficient is the only way to obtain larger braking and tractive works. There are various advantages of utilization of adhesion in an efficient way, such as reducing operating costs, minimizing trip time, preventing wheel-rail wear. On the other hand, the adhesion mechanism at the wheel-rail contact has a highly non-linear complex nature, whose dynamics are changed as a function of parameters like environmental conditions, vehicle speed, slip ratio etc. There is not any satisfactory accurate and trustworthy way of estimating these parameters yet. In this paper, an event based adaptive control scheme has been introduced to maximize the adhesion coefficient without requiring the exact value of those parameters. The efficient adhesion utilization can be obtained by using the proposed method while maintaining the stability. The continuous excitement of traction system and slow recuperation detection time difficulties in the former research has been overcome. The dynamics of phase shift were analyzed and an adaptive structure were built. Results acquired by using the proposed adaptive method were compared with the conventional control scheme in “Matlab&Simulink” software under various driving scenarios and wheel-rail contact conditions.

Dynamic behavior of a track-train system is a function of axle loads and support stiffness because of non-linear supports. Therefore, it is expected that the support stiffness affects the behavior of the railway track during passing of a light or heavy car body. Since the effects of axle loads caused by light and heavy railway vehicles and support stiffness of ballasted railway tracks due to passing railway vehicles have not been studied adequately, therefore the present study focused on this issue. For this purpose, this issue was first investigated by passing a light and heavy car body including bogies with three axle loads as field tests. Then, numerical analyses of the railway track caused by the passing of these railway vehicles were studied, and the numerical results were compared with the field results. There was a good agreement between the values of field responses and numerical analyses. Subsequently, a series of sensitivity analyses on effects of the axle loads caused by light or heavy loading and support conditions was done on the ballasted railway track. The results indicated that the maximum vertical displacements increased by axle loads, increased sleeper distances and decreases support stiffness. Finally, equations of track behavior based on support stiffness and axle loads were derived.

Purpose: Bulgaria's accession to the transport system in European Union as well as the strategic geographic location of the country suggests a high level of operational reliability in the rail sector. This paper contains a detailed study aimed to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of the Checkpoint Systems implemented by leading railway administrations. Design/methodology/approach: The basic principles of the construction of Checkpoint Systems are examined and the purpose of corresponding regional system for control of the train technical state in motion in Bulgaria is defined. The possibilities for the application of different types of sensors in order to achieve necessary and sufficient features for reliable implementation at a relatively low price were analysed. Findings: A model for values comparison of the most important parameters is proposed. The Recognition System is based on intelligent optical sensors that operate through cameras mounted on certain height which scans the numbers of wagons and after subsequent software image processing it compares them to the numbers from database. Practical implications: Application of these systems increases safe movement of trains and regulates the superintendence between the infrastructure operators and managing infrastructure state institutions. Originality/value: The novelty in this authors’ approach is the use of accelerometer sensors measurements that examines the magnitude of acceleration acquired by the rail under the effect of shock cyclical loads. Thanks to achievements of modern communication and information technologies, the key aspects of creating technical connections are marked. This research indicated the guidelines for the development of a nationwide unified network of diagnostic points which will help the future studies.

W publikacji przestawiono zagadnienia związane z monitorowaniem czynności utrzymaniowych dla pojazdów kolejowych, oraz rozwiązania dedykowane dla podmiotów odpowiedzialnych za utrzymanie wagonów towarowych oparte na normie PN-EN 50126:2002 wraz z opisem analizy czynnikowej dla 11 proponowanych wskaźników, wyłaniając ostatecznie pięć, mających decydujący wpływ na prawidłowy proces nadzorowania pojazdów. Od 1991 roku Rada Wspólnot Europejskich publikując Dyrektywę 1991/440/WE „w sprawie rozwoju kolei wspólnotowych” zainicjowała liberalizację europejskiego rynku kolejowego. Po trzynastu latach odpowiadając na wymagania branżowe Wspólnota zajęła wspólne stanowisko w sprawie bezpieczeństwa na kolei, wydając 29 kwietnia 2004 roku Dyrektywę 2004/49/WE Parlamentu Europejskiego i Rady. W dyrektywie tej zawarto wymóg budowy i wdrożenia Systemów Zarządzania Bezpieczeństwem (SMS), którego głównym narzędziem jest zarządzanie ryzykiem operacyjnym. Cztery lata później Dyrektywa 110/2008/WE po raz pierwszy wprowadza termin Podmiotu Odpowiedzialnego za Utrzymanie (ECM) a co za tym idzie idee Systemu Zarządzania Utrzymaniem (MMS), ostatecznie finalizując je 10 maja 2011 obowiązkową certyfikacją systemów utrzymania dla wagonów towarowych, zgodnie z Rozporządzeniem Komisji 445/2011. Jednym z obowiązkowych kryteriów, opisywanych w rozporządzeniu jest wymóg monitorowania czynności utrzymaniowych, mający zastosowanie w celu utrzymywania lub podnoszenia poziomu bezpieczeństwa poprzez ciągłe doskonalenie procesu utrzymywania pojazdów kolejowych.

Commission Regulation (EU) No. 445/2011 on a system of certification of entities in charge of maintenance (ECM) for freight wagons requires these entities to supervise the condition of wagons, without specifying methods of supervision This publication discusses issues related to the monitoring of maintenance operations for rail vehicles and dedicated solutions for entities in charge of maintenance for freight wagons based on PN-EN 50126:2002 standard. This paper describes factor analysis of the proposed indicators (eventually five are selected), having decisive impact on the correctness of process for monitoring vehicles. Council of the European Communities published the Directive No 1991/440/WE "On the development of the Community’s railways" in 1991 and initiated thus the liberalization of the European Rail Market. After thirteen years the Community took a common position on rail safety, publishing on 29 April 2004 Directive 2004/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council. The Directive requires the development and implementation of Safety Management Systems (SMS), whose main tool is the management of operational risk. Four years later, Directive 110/2008/WE first introduced the term Entity in Charge of Maintenance (ECM) and new system Maintenance Management System (MMS) associated with ECM. Finally, on 10 May 2011 Commission Regulation 445/2011 [3] established mandatory certification of maintenance systems for freight wagons. One of the mandatory criteria described in the Regulation is the obligation to monitor maintenance operations in order to keep or to increase the level of safety through continuous improvement.

Nowadays, transportation becomes a significant source, apart from factories and power plants, of air pollution. Therefore, due to legal restrictions on the emission of noxious gases, other power sources for vehicles are necessary. Some of these power sources allow replacement of the internal combustion engine completely, whereas the other ones only support the engine operation. Hence, a hybrid powertrain – alternative to the drivetrain equipped with an internal combustion engine only – is increasingly being used. The hybrid powertrain was mostly applied in cars and buses but recently it has been also used in railway vehicles such as locomotives and multiple units. The paper presents a shortened and brief overview of construction solutions of selected hybrid locomotives. A list of the applied hybrid drive systems as well as the basic data and properties are provided. The most important variants of vehicles are compared. The presented material allows identification of the development trends in the considered area. The hybrid locomotive usually uses an onboard rechargeable energy storage system, placed between the power source and the traction transmission system connected to the wheelsets. Modification of a classic diesel-electric locomotives is a relatively simple procedure since they have all the components of a series hybrid transmission except the storage battery. Therefore, the existing and operated diesel-electric locomotives can be modified to increase their efficiency and reduce operating costs and emissions.
