01 / OVERVIEW

Research overview

Variable mappings connect operation, control, and power layers to coordinate speed commands, running times, traction power, and supply-zone configuration.

KEY QUESTIONS

  1. 1How can relations among planning, train control, and power be formalized?
  2. 2How do running-time and power constraints propagate across layers?
  3. 3How should speed commands, traction power, and supply zones be coordinated?
  4. 4How can layered optimization generate executable integrated strategies?
