Dynamic Performance Optimization of Monorail Rapid Transit Formation Vehicles Based on Improved Artificial Potential Field Algorithm

Abstract

This paper presents a new type of monorail rapid transit vehicle, which can operate in formation. In order to optimize the dynamic performance of the formation vehic-les when passing through the small radius curve, this paper first analyzes the structure of the new monorail rapid transit vehicle, and establishes the vehicle dynamic model and multi-body dynamics simulation model. Then the improved artificial potential field algorithm is used to build the formation vehicle operation controller. Finally, the dynamic performance evaluation index of the new mono-rail rapid transit formation vehicle is formulated, and the formation vehicle passing through the small radius curve scene is simulated. The simulation results show that the controller of the formation vehicle with dynamic optimi-zation control can effectively optimize the load transfer coefficient of running wheels, unbalanced centrifugal acce-leration and roll angle of vehicle body when passing thro-ugh the curve. Through this control method, the dynamic performance of formation vehicles passing through small radius curve lines can be optimized.
