Main Academic contribution
Distributed braking control theory of rail vehicles: An adaptive anti-skid control method based on wheel-rail dynamic adhesion characteristics was proposed, which solved the problem of accurate parking control of train braking based on ATO information. The research results have been used for a total of 5 trains on Shanghai Metro Line 1, which have been in safe operation since 2010. Braking force distribution strategy of virtual rail vehicleswas proposed.
Intelligent maintenance and active safety of braking systems: The first quadrant law of the failure state and migration change of braking system was discovered, and the three-characteristic analysis method for the evaluation of the performance evolution of braking system was proposed; the online monitoring and early warning system for the failure of braking system was developed. The research results were demonstrated on a total of 15 trains on Guangzhou Metro Line 2 and Line 8.
Key technologies of braking friction pairs: The laws of pumping wind energy consumption, dynamic heat dissipation and abnormal wear and abrasion of the basic brake under the action of high-speed, wind and snow were revealed. The dynamic accurate test and evaluation of heat accumulation of rapid start and stop, as well as cyclic braking of urban rail trains was solved. The research results supported the development of high-speed EMUs. The temperature rise and speed limit analysis of over 20 lines’ subways, nearly 3500km, were completed.
Wind-resistance braking technology of high-speed trains: Aiming at the problems of low wheel-rail adhesion at high-speed zones and long emergency braking distance, as the core technical director of the project, the wind-resistance non-stick braking method was studied in China for the first time, the prototype was developed successfully, thecomplete sets of technology were mastered, and the 300km/h line test was completed on line Shanghai-Kunming in 2014.
Energy recovery technology of rail transit:Aiming at the problem of self-powered of railway wagons, research on track energy recovery technology and key technology of vehicle vibration energy recovery were carried out, prototypes were developed successfully, and prototype tests were completed.
