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.

These parts are typically managed on-sight, i.e. with no signalling and train protection systems ensuring the freedom of movement. This is possible due to the rather short braking distances of individual vehicles and shunting consists. The present article analyses the braking behaviour of such shunting units. For this purpose, a dedicated model is developed. It is calibrated on published results of brake tests and validated against a high-definition model for low-speed applications. Based on this model, multiple simulations are executed to obtain a Monte Carlo simulation of the resulting braking distances. Based on the distribution properties and established safety levels, the risk of exceeding certain braking distances is evaluated and maximum braking distances are derived. Together with certain parameters of the system, these can serve in the design and safety assessment of driver assistance systems and automation of these processes.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PeekenTroederBenneretal.1986, author = {Peeken, Heinz and Troeder, Christoph and Benner, Joachim and Platt, Werner}, title = {A new approach to describe the mechanical performance of flexible couplings in drive systems}, series = {Proceedings of the International Conference on Rotordynamics : September 14 - 17, 1986, Tokyo}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the International Conference on Rotordynamics : September 14 - 17, 1986, Tokyo}, publisher = {IFToMM}, address = {Tokyo}, pages = {159 -- 163}, year = {1986}, language = {en} } @article{PeekenBennerPlatt1989, author = {Peeken, Heinz and Benner, Joachim and Platt, Werner}, title = {Ausfallkriterien elastomerbest{\"u}ckter Wellenkupplungen}, series = {Antriebstechnik : Konstruktion, Entwicklung und Anwendung von Antrieben und Steuerungen ; Organ der Forschungsvereinigung Antriebstechnik e.V.}, volume = {28}, journal = {Antriebstechnik : Konstruktion, Entwicklung und Anwendung von Antrieben und Steuerungen ; Organ der Forschungsvereinigung Antriebstechnik e.V.}, number = {11}, publisher = {Vereinigte Fachverl.}, address = {Mainz}, issn = {0341-2652}, pages = {85 -- 88}, year = {1989}, language = {de} }
