| * | Abbreviated name: | MARBOML1-2 | | | Project title: | Optimal design of ATO driving parameters for Metro de Barcelona to Line 1 for new trains | | | Funding entity: | Bombardier European Investments S.L.U | | | Start date: | April 2020 | | | End date: | December 2023 | | | Researcher(s): | Antonio Fernández Cardador, Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez, Gonzalo Sánchez Contreras, Fernando Conde Montero | | | Description: | The objective of this project is the design and implementation of ATO speed commands in Line 1 of Metro de Barcelona to minimise the energy consumption of new trains in this line. These ATO speed commands are selected and sent to the train by the traffic regulation system in real-time. For each inter-station a set of 4 speed commands are designed, the flat out command and 3 commands parameterized basically by a coast point and a regulation speed. | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | MARBOML3-2 | | | Project title: | Optimal design of ATO driving parameters for Metro de Barcelona to Line 1 for new trains | | | Funding entity: | Bombardier European Investments S.L.U | | | Start date: | April 2020 | | | End date: | December 2023 | | | Researcher(s): | Antonio Fernández Cardador, Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez, Gonzalo Sánchez Contreras | | | Description: | The objective of this project is the design and implementation of ATO speed commands in Line 3 of Metro de Barcelona to minimise the energy consumption of new trains in this line. These ATO speed commands are selected and sent to the train by the traffic regulation system in real-time. For each inter-station a set of 4 speed commands are designed, the flat out command and 3 commands parameterized basically by a coast point and a regulation speed. | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | MARFGC-RAMALES | | | Project title: | Optimal design of ATO driving parameters in the branches of Valles Line of FGC | | | Funding entity: | Siemens Rail Automation S.A.U | | | Start date: | May 2021 | | | End date: | December 2023 | | | Researcher(s): | Antonio Fernández Cardador, Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez, Manuel Blanco Castillo | | | Description: | The objective of this project is the design and implementation of efficient ATO speed commands in FGC railway line in Tarrasa and Sabadell branches. These ATO speed commands are selected and sent to the train by the traffic regulation system in real-time. The new ATO speed commands must comply with technical, operational and comfort restrictions and will minimise the energy consumption. | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | HYMPULSO | | | Project title: | Hympulso: Comprehensive project on rail mobility through hydrogen: from generation to the track | | | Funding entity: | Patentes Talgo S.L.U | | | Start date: | January 2023 | | | End date: | July 2025 | | | Researcher(s): | Antonio Fernández Cardador, Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez | | | Description: | Eleven institutions are collaborating in this project, led by Patentes Talgo, to advance in the transition towards clean mobility based on green hydrogen. The project integrates the entire value chain in the generation of green hydrogen and its use in the railroad, also analyzing the impact that this transition has on the different assets of the railway infrastructure, such as the track or maintenance facilities.
Within the consortium, the Railway Systems Area of IIT collaborates in the development of a prototype train powered by fuel cells and batteries. In particular, IIT is responsible for the development of the digital twin that simulates in detail the behavior of the hydrogen train, as well as the model that optimizes the driving of the train by combining the use of different energy sources (hydrogen cell, battery, catenary and regenerative braking). It also collaborates in real driving tests and energy efficiency analysis. | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | PLAN_CBTC_CAFS | | | Project title: | Specification of the Planning and Rescheduling modules of a TMS for Mass Transit (CBTC) | | | Funding entity: | CAF SIGNALLING S.L | | | Start date: | February 2023 | | | End date: | February 2025 | | | Researcher(s): | Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Antonio Fernández Cardador, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez | | | Description: | The objective of this project is the specification of the Planning and Rescheduling modules of a TMS (Traffic Management System) for Mass Transit (CBTC). | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | RESS | | | Project title: | Energy storage methods in railway systems | | | Funding entity: | Union Internationale des Chemins de Fer (UIC), ADIF, Infrabel, Network Rail, RFI | | | Start date: | April 2023 | | | End date: | March 2025 | | | Researcher(s): | Antonio Fernández Cardador, Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez, María Domínguez Gago | | | Description: | The goal of the project is to provide a decision-making tool based on simulation, and guidance to assist infrastructure managers when planning to increase the energy efficiency of railway stations by using the energy regenerated in braking trains by means of Energy Storage Systems located in stations.
This goal of the project is decomposed into three specific objectives: (1) to study the latest and different technologies in energy storage that could be suitable for this application; (2) to develop a decision software tool based on simulation to analyse the best ESS solution for each station type, based on its consumption and traffic; (3) to develop an IRS (International Railway Solution) draft on the implementation of ESS technologies in railway stations to make them more sustainable. | | | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | MOTIONAL_reg | | | Project title: | Design of railway traffic regulation algorithms of Mass Transit lines | | | Funding entity: | CAF Signalling S.L. | | | Start date: | December 2023 | | | End date: | December 2025 | | | Researcher(s): | Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Antonio Fernández Cardador, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez | | | Description: | The aim of this project is the specification and design of rail traffic regulation algorithms for Mass Transit and with continuous communication signalling systems | | | | |

| * | Abbreviated name: | FUTURRAIL | | | Project title: | Next generation urban rail transport: smart planning and regulation for capacity and energy efficiency [FUTURRAIL] | | | Funding entity: | MCIN/AEI /10.13039/501100011033 y por la Unión Europea NextGenerationEU/ PRTR | | | Start date: | July 2022 | | | End date: | June 2025 | | | Researcher(s): | Asunción Paloma Cucala García, Antonio Fernández Cardador, Adrián Fernández Rodríguez, Manuel Blanco Castillo, Fernando Conde Montero | | | Description: | The main objective of the FUTURRAIL project is to provide an integrated model to manage transport capacity efficiently in highly demanded urban and metropolitan railway lines, and software tools to implement it. This way, it will be possible to increase the transport capacity in urban railway lines maximizing the usage of the rail infrastructure.
The project is structured into three main pillars:
-Planning module: related to infrastructure and new signalling systems.
-Timetabling and transport demand coverage: related to the generation of efficient timetables.
-Traffic operation platform: related to traffic operation and regulation of trains in real-time.
