Due to its unique installation position and complex environment, this unit has a higher fault rate within the on-board train control system. To conduct fault prediction for the BTM unit based on actual fault data, this study proposes a prediction method combining reliability statistics and machine learning, and achieves the fusion of prediction results from different dimensions through multi-method interactive validation. Firstly, a method for predicting equipment fault time targeting batch equipment is introduced. This method utilizes reliability statistics to construct a model of the remaining faultless operating time distribution considering uncertainty, thereby predicting the remaining faultless operating probability of the BTM unit. Secondly, considering the complexity of the BTM unit’s fault mechanism, the small sample size of fault cases, and the potential presence of multiple fault features in fault text records, an individual-oriented fault prediction method based on Bayesian-optimized Gradient Boosting Regression Tree (Bayes-GBRT) is proposed. This method achieves better prediction results compared to linear regression algorithms and random forest regression algorithms, with an average absolute error of only 0.224 years for predicting the fault time of this type of equipment. Finally, a multi-method interactive validation approach is proposed, enabling the fusion and validation of multi-dimensional results. The results indicate that the predicted fault time and the actual fault time conform to a log-normal distribution, and the parameter estimation results are basically consistent, verifying the accuracy and effectiveness of the prediction results. The above research findings can provide technical support for the maintenance and modification of BTM units, effectively reducing maintenance costs and ensuring the safe operation of high-speed railway, thus having practical engineering value for preventive maintenance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100607,"journal":{"name":"High-speed Railway","volume":"2 3","pages":"Pages 164-171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142318915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A dynamic optimal allocation strategy of electric-air braking force is proposed in this paper to solve the problem of the lack of consideration of adhesion difference of train wheelsets in the existing high-speed train electric-air braking force optimal allocation strategies. In this method, the braking strategy gives priority to the use of electric braking force. The force model of a single train in the braking process is analyzed to calculate the change of adhesion between the wheel and rail of each wheelset after axle load transfer, and then the adhesion of the train is estimated in real time. Next, with the goal of maximizing the total adhesion utilization ratio of trailer/motor vehicles, a linear programming distribution function is constructed. The proportional coefficient of adhesion utilization ratio of each train and the application upper limit of braking force in the function is updated according to the change time point of wheelset adhesion. Finally, the braking force is dynamically allocated. The simulation results of Matlab/Simulink show that the proposed algorithm not only uses the different adhesion limits of each trailer to reduce the total amount of braking force undertaken by the motor vehicle, but also considers the adhesion difference of each wheelset. The strategy can effectively reduce the risk and time of motor vehicles during the braking process and improve the stability of the train braking.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100607,"journal":{"name":"High-speed Railway","volume":"2 2","pages":"Pages 77-84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949867824000308/pdfft?md5=f893352645e3b14ecb17ccb28774ec7e&pid=1-s2.0-S2949867824000308-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141434697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
