Railway applications - Methods for calculation of stopping and slowing distances and immobilisation braking - Part 6: Step by step calculations for train sets or single vehicles
This European Standard describes a general algorithm that may be used in all types of high speedand conventional vehicle applications, including self-propelling thermal or electric trains, thermal orelectric traction units; passenger carriages, mobile railway infrastructure construction andmaintenance equipment and freight wagons. This standard does not specify the performancerequirements. It enables the calculation of the various aspects of the performance: stopping orslowing distances, dissipated energy, force calculations and immobilization braking.This standard enables the verification by calculation of the stopping, slowing and immobilizationperformanc
