Study on the maximum operation speeds of metro trains for energy saving as well as transport efficiency improvement

By following a computer-aided simulation procedure, this research analyzes the traction energy cost and transport operation time per 10,000 passenger-kilometers of two representative types of metro trains in China under various top speeds between different stations along a hypothetically straight an...
