THEORETICAL BASE AND METHODS

OF THE COMPLEX OPTIMIZATION OF MAGLEV

Keywords: Maglev-system, optimization, system analysis.

Currently, with the ever-growing competition in the world market of transport services and dynamically developing new transport technologies, will be able to compete only those maglev-systems that will use their technical and economic advantages. And if we take into account that modern maglev-systems are complex and high-tech multi-functional designs, which is constantly updated with new developments, then the existing evaluation methods were not always able to identify the maximum benefits of the aforesaid transport technologies.

Thus, a new tool has been proposed in this paper, which allows scientifically based methods to find the most optimal solution for maglev-system, depending on its application. This scientific instrument, as a full virtual model of the entire maglev-system, allows you to simulate any work processes of such a transport system, taking into account the introduction into it of new technical developments. As a result, at the lowest cost maglev-system ensures its maximum performance and the required traffic safety, which ultimately creates a good preconditions for considered maglev-system not only maintain a good position in the competition with other transport systems, but also to expand its scope of application.

2. METHODS OF SOLUTION

2.1. Fundamental approaches

In order to improve the competitiveness of Maglev systems (Fig. 1) they were optimized by creating mathematical models based on the condition of maximum satisfaction of existing transport needs with minimum resource consumption.

The object of the investigation

l

Fig. 1. The object of the study

For this purpose, according to the systems theory, in the basis for the creating of the models of MLX01 and TRANSRAPID the system analysis method was applied to correct reflection the main features of these Maglev systems, their structure and properties, acting in this systems interactions and regularities, causal relationships inside the systems and methods of influencing them (Fig. 2).

Also, for the analysis and description of the existing complex algebraic problems, there was used the principle of structured modeling, based on the research of the hierarchical structure MLX01/TRANSRAPID and qualitative/quantitative relationships between their elements, which have an impact on the economic parameters of considered Maglev systems.

Using graph theory the possibility of configuration of module-oriented multivariate technical execution structure was investigated for MLX01/ TRANSRAPID, depending on their capacity to adapt to the conditions of application for selected case of the building of a new line in terms of dynamically changing during its operation, technical and economic characteristics of these Maglev systems.

Economic aspects of the modeling

Life-Cycle-Cost analysis of the economic characteristics of MLX01/TRANSRAPID was carried out

through the determination of their capital investment, operating costs, total

costs and the specific travel tariff. ^_^

Comparative analysis

Choosing the most of the effective variant from the variety of the variants of technical performance MLX01 and TRANSRAPID was carried out by the method of invariant immersion at specific travel tariff.

It is based on analytical deterministic analysis of separate lines or group of lines constituting the discrete structure of the transport network.

groups thereof, which can lead to their dominance due to the deterioration of the values of other elements of the system, the choice of most of the equilibrium state MLX01/TRANSRAPID carried out according to the vector optimization for the selected criteria through a complete solution of system of equations describing the calculated parameters of their technical and economic structure and operation technology. As a result, all unnecessary costs were cut off to provide maximum adapted configurations investigated Maglev systems according to the conditions of their application. At the same time these configurations will correspond to the state of the most stable equilibrium between all groups and the elements of the general optimization process.

According to the control theory and in order to identify new dependencies in the time carrying out simulative calculation was applied the combined principle of control of the optimization in models MLX01/TRANSRAPID, where the values of some parameters of their configuration and exploitation (which are considered as external control parameters) entered manually, and the value of all the other calculated parameters investigated Maglev systems are defined according to conditions of their application automatically.

The operating concept of MLX01/TRANSRAPID, used in the modeling was calculated for a period of 50 years. This period is equal to the period of operation of the track infrastructure of the line until its overhaul, taking into account changes

in the intensity of seasonal/daily traffic and the continued growth of their annual volume. In the same time this schedule of trains and their number during this period have not changed over the years. The number of sections in the train configuration was only increased. Based on the maximum load on the line, which falls on the "peak hour" of the last calculation year of its operation, have been identified: type of track structure (single-track, double-track and single-track with bilateral passing track), the number of bilateral passing track and the number of station tracks at halt.

2.3. Technology of functioning

Economic aspects of modeling MLX01/TRANSRAPID are based on Life-Cycle-Cost analysis, according to which there were identified sum total costs as well as the specific travel tariff (as the main evaluation criterion) which was received from the calculation of the payback of the total costs to the time of credit payment.

The selection of the most effective variant of configuration MLX01/ TRANSRAPID from the multitude ways of their technical execution (due to database diversity), as well as the choice between the investigated Maglev technologies and railway systems for each specific case their application, were carried out by the method of comparative analysis on specific tariff.

Thus, a deterministic analysis of individual lines or groups of lines constituting the discrete structure of the transport network, with a selection of the most efficient system from comparable transportation systems, allows to identify (according to the set theory) limits of effective application Maglev transport for each concrete case of its use and determine preconditions for optimal development existing transport infrastructure.

As a tool to achieve of the above purposes by scientifically-based methods, on the grounds of the principles of building of mathematical computer models, was developed the calculated application program that allows carry out the necessary volume of experimental calculations based of apparatus of methods of the optimization and the simulation modeling (Fig. 3).

However, due to deficit of information resources, caused by a strong structure considered Maglev systems and complicated functional connectivity in them, were used crude mathematical models MLX01/TRANSRAPID with limited modular execution (which takes into account the interaction only between their main components), for partial optimization these Maglev systems on average values of parameters condition of their application.

The principle of the combined method of control optimization MLX01/ TRANSRAPID was implemented in algorithm of the calculated program through two external control parameters: the maximum speed of the trains between two stops and the number of sections per configuration.

Also a function for calculating the linear routes and the circular routes was provided in the program. Circular route allows instead of network radially arranged of linear routes to construct a closed route which will consistently link all the stops.

In addition, the flexibility of input program parameters allows calculations not only for already developed system design as is MLX01 and TRANSRAPID, but also for prospective directions of their development, including for other long stator linear motors and suspension on the electric or superconducting magnets.

Thus, the potential of the program algorithm ensured the holding of the calculation of number of the existing modularly oriented Maglev systems with the

5.3. Train configuration

By a deterministic analysis the dependency of reduction of specific travel tariff from increasing of trains configuration MLX01/TRANSRAPID has been studied, according which the use of the long configuration Maglev trains proved optimal for all considered model lines (Fig. 7).

5.4. Optimal speed of train

By the method of the successive approximations the optimal speed for MLX01/TRANSRAPID on short distances between stops (typical of the regional traffic) was determined. It does not reaches its maximum of technical value, but in compared with the obtained economic effect leads only to a slight increase in travel time (Table 1).
