An increase of the deceleration in high-speed and high-density train operations degrades riding comfort and frequently causes wheel skids. This requires an introduction of the control technology to upgrade the control performance of brake systems on railway vehicles. We are now studying control methods for a mechanical brake that uses friction and pneumatic pressure, including nonlinear elements as the basis of a brake force. Furthermore, the system itself has certain “dead time,” which is not negligible and makes control difficult. One of our targets is to develop a brake control device that can control the deceleration in accordance with a decelerating pattern that optimizes the riding comfort of trains and prevents wheel skids. In this paper, a design method of the controller for the deceleration tracking control and the system compensating the dead time are proposed. Finally, the effects of them are confirmed through computer simulations and experimental results on a dynamo test stand.

Increase of deceleration in high-speed and high-density train operation degrades riding comfort and frequently causes wheel skids. This requires an introduction of the control engineering to upgrade the control performance of brake systems on rolling stocks. We are now studying a control method for mechanical brakes that uses friction and pneumatic pressure, including non-linear elements as the basis of brake force. Furthermore, the system itself has certain “dead time”, which is not ignorable and makes controlling difficult. One of our targets is to develop a brake control device that can control deceleration in accordance with a decelerating pattern that optimizes riding comfort and prevents wheel skids.

Nonlinear Tuned Mass Damper

A tuned mass damper is a passive control device that has been widely used in aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineering as well as many other fields. Tuned mass dampers have been studied and improved over the course of many years. In practical engineering applications, a tuned mass damper inevitably produces some nonlinear characteristics due to the large displacement and the use of the limiting devices, but this nonlinearity is often neglected. The simulation results in this study confirm that neglecting the nonlinearity in the design process can produce adverse effects on the control performance. This paper takes into account the nonlinearity of the tuned mass damper produced in the process of vibration and deduces an optimum formula for the frequency of a tuned mass damper by the complexification averaging method and multiscale method. Based on this formula, a modified design method for the frequency of a tuned mass damper is presented. The numerical results show that the nonlinear tuned mass damper after modification is better than a linear tuned mass damper in terms of control performance.

Vehicle Structure

For high-speed railway carbody structure durability analysis problems in China, one integrated method based on MBS (multibody simulation) is proposed here. Firstly, one EMU (Electricity Multiple Unit) full vehicle was performed to dynamic modeling and simulation. The numerical simulation results were applied to illustrate the vehicle dynamic characteristics. And the relationships between structural strength, stiffness, and frequency characteristics were also studied. Secondly, the multidisciplinary design technique was used to solve multi-mode coupled vibration of carbody structure on the cumulative effects of local vibration and damage effects, as well as structure light-weighting and other parallel optimization problems. Finally, the effective measures were proposed to control carbody structure’s physical failure.

Abstract This paper dealt with design scheme of sliding mode optimal tracking control in which the hyperplane is designed to follow the desired trajectory without time-delay. At first, we designed the servo system by applying conventional optimal tracking control, H1 and H∞ optimal tracking control. Secondly, we show the design method of sliding mode optimal tracking control. Thirdly, we carried out the simulation to verify the validity of the design method. In the simulation, three patterns were examined by using H2 norm. The trajectory following and the robust performance in the difference of the design methods were clarified by the simulations. Finally, we applied these control methods to a quadruped locomotion robot.
