Industrial technologies, mobility, and energy efficiency of electric traction of rail transport

详细

An electrified main railway line is a transport complex containing rolling stock (locomotive and carriages) and railway infrastructure (railway track, power supply facilities, signaling system, interlocking and sectioning systems, and other stationary objects). Being in conditions of a developing market, the main precondition for efficiency and competitiveness of Russian Railways is the mobility enhancement. The main factors and industrial technologies are considered, with it being planned to enhance the mobility of Russian Railway transport on their basis. Paramount importance in this strategy is given to augmentation of the service speed and increasing the productivity of electrical locomotives and dynamic charge capacities of the track structure and power supply quality of the rapid–transit and high-speed lines. Special technical specifications are developed on the basis of the proposals; they were approved for design and construction of the Moscow–Kazan–Yekaterinburg railway section with a maximum speed of 400 km/h.
