Item Improvement of the Method for Standardizing the Duration of Rail Cars Shunting(НГУ, Дніпро, 2021) Kozachenko, Dmytro M.; Gera, Bogdan V.; Manafov, E. K.; Gorbova, Aleksandra V.; Korobiova, Ruslana G.ENG: Purpose. To improve the method for calculating the time standard for shunting cars from track to track in order to take into account the local operating conditions of railway stations and railway sidings. Methodology. During the research, the methods of theory of railway operation were used. The problem of calculating the time standard for shunting operation was solved as the problem of searching the optimal division of train set into the car groups to achieve minimal time consumption for shunting operation. Findings. In the course of the study, the methods for calculating the time standards for initial and fi nal operations, as well as movements performed when shunting cars from track to track were improved. It was proved that the minimum time spent on shunting cars from track to track was achieved when the train set was divided into the minimum possible number of parts and the cars were shunted in the longest possible groups and one remaining group. It was also established that with suffi cient accuracy for engineering problems the duration of shunting train set from track to track can be represented by the piecewise linear function of the car number in it. Originality. The work originality consists in improving the method for calculating the time standard for shunting cars from track to track, that, unlike the existing one, takes into account the length limitations of the car groups being shunted from track to track, as well as the actual composition of operations performed in the process of shunting. Practical value. The use of the developed method allows setting time standards for shunting cars from track to track, taking into account the local operating conditions of railway stations and sidings of industrial enterprises. The method also makes it possible to simplify solving problems of searching the optimal order of performing more complex shunting operations, such as sorting cars into several tracks, collecting cars on one track, train formation, and others.Item A Model of Transit Freight Distribution on a Railway Network(The Silesian University of Technology, Katowice, Poland, 2019) Kozachenko, Dmytro M.; Skalozub, Vladyslav V.; Gera, Bogdan V.; Hermaniuk, Yuliia M.; Korobiova, Ruslana G.; Gorbova, Aleksandra V.ENG: Summary. The peculiarity of the transit freight transportation by rail in international traffic is the fact that while performing transportation, the railway administrations are in competition among themselves. At the same time, the routes of cargo traffic volumes sig- nificantly depend on the conditions of transportation by railways of individual states. The mathematical model for the distribution of transit freight traffic volumes on the railway network, based on the methods of graph theory and game theory, was proposed in this ar- ticle. The developed model enables the evaluation of the possibilities of attracting transit freight traffic volumes by indi by changing the tariff value and transportation conditions.Item Modeling Work of Sorting Station Using UML(Дніпропетровський національний університет залізничного транспорту імені академіка В. Лазаряна, Дніпропетровськ, 2015) Gorbova, Aleksandra V.ENG: Purpose. The purpose of this paper is the construction of methods and models for the graphical representation process of sorting station, using the unified modeling language (UML). Methodology. Methods of graph theory, finite automata and the representation theory of queuing systems were used as the methods of investigation. A graphical representation of the process was implemented with using the Unified Modeling Language UML. The sorting station process representation is implemented as a state diagram and actions through a set of IBM Rational Rose. Graphs can show parallel operation of sorting station, the parallel existence and influence of objects process and the transition from one state to another. The IBM Rational Rose complex allows developing a diagram of work sequence of varying degrees of detailing. Findings. The study has developed a graphical representation method of the process of sorting station of different kind of complexity. All graphical representations are made using the UML. They are represented as a directed graph with the states. It is clear enough in the study of the subject area. Applying the methodology of the representation process, it allows becoming friendly with the work of any automation object very fast, and exploring the process during algorithms construction of sorting stations and other railway facilities. This model is implemented with using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) using a combination of IBM Rational Rose. Originality. The representation process of sorting station was developed by means of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) use. Methodology of representation process allows creating the directed graphs based on the order of execution of the works chain, objects and performers of these works. The UML allows visualizing, specifying, constructing and documenting, formalizing the representation process of sorting station and developing sequence diagrams of works of varying degrees of detail. Practical value. The usage of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) based on software package IBM Rational Rose and allows to create processes of varying degrees of detail, reduce the time expenditure for the process research of sorting station and get a clear graphical representation, as well as to reduce the human costs at the construction and improvement of existing technological processes.Item An Optimization Method of the Multi-Group Train Formation at Flat Yards(Taylor & Francis Ltd., UK, 2021) Kozachenko, Dmytro M.; Bobrovsky, Volodymyr I.; Gera, Bogdan V.; Skovron, Ihor Ya.; Gorbova, Aleksandra V.ENG: Formation of multi-group trains is aimed at arranging their cars in a given order and is one of the mass operations performed at railway. In this regard, the reduction of the duration of shunting operations for the formation of multi-group trains is an urgent task for railway transport. In this paper, for a discrete deterministic-controlled system that simulates the operation of the flat yard, a mathematical statement of the problem of choosing the optimal order of multi-group train formation is obtained. The set of possible states of the system under study and the transitions between them are presented in the form of directed graph, which made it possible to reduce the problem of choosing the order of train formation to the problem of searching the shortest paths on the graph. An algorithm of searching the optimal order of train formation is proposed.
