A Simulation Approach for Optimising Energy-Efficient Driving Speed Profiles in Metro Lines

We propose a model for optimising driving speed profiles on metro lines to reduce traction energy consumption. The model optimises the cruising speed to be maintained on each section between two stations; the functions that link the cruising speed to the travel time on the section and the correspond...
