Abstract:ABSTRACT:Monitoring the adhesion force between a railway wheel and a rail surface is very essential in maintaining high acceleration and braking performance of railway vehicles. Due to the difficulties encountered in direct measurement of friction coefficient, creepage and adhesion force; state observers are used as indirect estimation methods. This paper proposes an effective estimation method, which exploits railway traction motor behaviour to give an assistance for realizing wheel slip and adhesion control … Show more
