Active Safety Methodologies of Rail Transportation - Yong Qin Limin Jia Gebunden

Safe and high-efficiency operation are two main issues in rail transportation. This book focuses on these two key issues bringing together a wealth of research to offer theoretical and technical support for rail operations and maintenance. In addition it presents a comprehensive active safety assurance system for rail transportation which includes the quantitative state identification and prediction of train components rail transportation safety and reliability assessment methods and rail transportation risk assessment at the rail networks level which achieves the quantitative and high-p recision monitoring of complex systems in real-time. In addition it extends active safety based theory to safety prognostic analysis in the traffic system. Lastly representative case studies verify that the theory is suitable for the actual traffic system.
