The approach is embedded in the Wagon 4.0 concept, which is a holistic approach to a smart freight wagon.

Short-term success can be achieved through the data-driven optimization of operations and maintenance as well as the application of novel strategies such as prescriptive maintenance. After introducing the concept of prescriptive maintenance, this paper aims to prove that vehicle-focused applications of this approach indeed have the potential to increase attractiveness. However, even greater advantages can be activated if data from the horizontal network of the vehicle is available. Drawing on the state of the art in research and technology in the field of cyber-physical systems (CPS) as well as digital twins and shadows, our work serves to design a system of systems for the horizontal interconnection of a rail vehicle and to conceptualize a draft for a digital twin of a locomotive.}, language = {en} } @article{PfaffSchmidtPinders2015, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Schmidt, Bernd and Pinders, Udo}, title = {Energieeffizienz steigern durch Rekuperationseinrichtungen}, series = {Deine Bahn}, journal = {Deine Bahn}, number = {5}, publisher = {Eisenbahn-Fachverlag}, address = {Mainz}, issn = {0172-4479}, pages = {50 -- 53}, year = {2015}, language = {de} } @article{PfaffEnning2017, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Enning, Manfred}, title = {Die nachhaltige Alternative zum autonomen Lastwagen}, series = {Deine Bahn}, journal = {Deine Bahn}, number = {10}, pages = {22 -- 26}, year = {2017}, language = {de} }
