Public incident reports are analysed to derive a reasonable brake test hardware and communication architecture, which aims to provide automatic brake tests at lower cost than current solutions. The proposed solutions relies exclusively on brake pipe and brake cylinder pressure sensors, a brake release position switch as well as radio communication via standard protocols. The approach is embedded in the Wagon 4.0 concept, which is a holistic approach to a smart freight wagon. The reduction of manual processes yields a strong incentive due to high savings in manual labour and increased productivity.}, language = {en} } @article{FranzenPindersPfaffetal.2018, author = {Franzen, Julius and Pinders, Erik and Pfaff, Raphael and Enning, Manfred}, title = {RailCrowd's virtual fleets: Make most of your asset data}, series = {Deine Bahn}, journal = {Deine Bahn}, number = {9}, publisher = {Bahn-Fachverlag}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {0948-7263}, pages = {11 -- 13}, year = {2018}, abstract = {For smaller railway operators or those with a diverse fleet, it can be difficult to collect sufficient data to improve maintenance programs.
