METHOD OF TRAIN OPERATION ALONG THE RAILWAY SECTION Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC B61L3/00 

FIELD: railway automatics.

SUBSTANCE: in the method, when a rail vehicle is moving along a railway section, a travel section is provided that terminates in front of or at a dangerous place of the railway section; vehicle is braked during the brake phase at the beginning of the section, based on the first (V₀) speed; during the braking phase, the vehicle energy absorption unit takes the kinetic value (ΔE_kin) of the kinetic energy (E_kin) of the vehicle; the braking phase is accompanied by a phase of energy reduction in the travel section in which at least a part (ΔE_Q) of absorbed energy (ΔE_kin) is outputted by the energy absorption unit, so that the energy output does not affect either the kinetic or potential energy (E_pot) of the vehicle; the travel section is determined so that the energy parametric value of the state, characteristic of the train energy (E_train), taking into account the energy (E_Q) available at least in the energy absorption unit, corresponds to the condition in a dangerous place. And the train energy (E_train) is the sum of the kinetic energy (E_kin), potential energy (E_pot) and energy (E_Q), present in the energy absorption unit.

EFFECT: short travel time without compromising safety is achieved.
