AI Technical Summary
Conventional brake management systems fail to maintain the target deceleration and stop the train within the intended stopping distance under degraded adhesion conditions, leading to increased safety risks due to the delay in detecting and addressing degraded adhesion, resulting in longer stopping distances.
A braking management method that adjusts braking forces based on actual deceleration and distance traveled, incorporating compensation deceleration values to minimize the additional distance traveled during degraded adhesion, using various braking and adhesion recovery means.
The method ensures the train stops within the target stopping distance by minimizing the additional distance traveled during degraded adhesion conditions, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of accidents.
