| Research Abstract |
The researcher developed comprehensive energy-saving methodology of vehicle design, scheduling and driving of railway systems based on theoretical analyses. The achievements are; possibility of energy management of on-board energy storage systems, the improved scheduling method based on the proposed "Law of Identical Incremental Energy Consumption" to apply it to real railway operators, the scheduling method in power crisis such as disasters considering energy and passenger trip times, and solving optimal train speed profiles considering long distance driving and signalling systems for high-density operation.
