“Silk Road”: new projects and opportunities for revival

Abstract

In today's world, China occupies important, if not leading, positions in its region in various industrial sectors, and therefore the question of the possibilities of delivering a very large amount of Chinese products, including ways and means of delivering goods from China to Europe and back, has now become very serious. The last decade, China has actively proclaimed a policy of openness and carries out a huge number of various reforms. Thanks to this, China was able to sign many documents with European countries on cooperation in various fields - economy, trade, science, technology, culture, and in the field of civil aviation, road, rail, and maritime transport. In addition, directly with the EU - general trade agreements. Such cooperation leads to a change in the structure of trade and economic relations, because of which the customs relations of the PRC with members of the Eurasian Economic Cooperation (EAEU) change. The article is devoted to the Chinese project "New Silk Road". The cargo flows of the project “New Silk Road” investigated. It was determined that sea freight is the most profitable way to deliver goods from China to Europe. The transit channel between Europe and Asia is consider as a way to develop an international logistics system in the territories adjacent to Asia and Europe.

“Smart station”-a complex of automated control system

“…Local elements of the transition to digital technology (queue congestion control, ticketprinting machine (BPA), screening frames and X-ray television installation, Face ID system As for the tasks of passenger infrastructure operation, this digital platform "Smart Station" will ensure proactive work based on forecasting, calculation, and risk assessment, as digitization and process monitoring will exclude the human factor, especially if it is relevant to transport safety issues [18][19][20][21]. Even now, due to the implementation of digital technologies and local projects, the support of cross-selling activities for suburban and longdistance trains is noticeably increasing.…”

“…As part of the implementation of the Development Strategy of the Russian Railways Holding Company for the period up to 2030, approved by the Russian Railways Board of Directors on December 23, 2013 No. 19, the Digital Railway project is being initiated. As part of this work, an innovative approach to organizing the work of station complexes, through a set of automated control systems such as "Smart Station" will be considered.…”

Industry 4.0 technologies as a driver of intelligent transport systems development

“…The paper attempts to elaborate a paradigm for the development of a system for intelligent management of the transport and logistics complex by designating hiatuses within the current socio-economic situation. This study is based on the results presented in several sources [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Digitalization of the transport and logistics sphere is one of the leading trends in the development of the industry.…”

“…In addition, the methodology of theoretical research, comparative analysis and system analysis are applied. The issues of the development of digitalization and the introduction of innovations in the Russian logistics ecosystem were considered in the works of Pokrovskaya O., Pokrovskaya O. and others [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

Methods for calculating and analyzing the capacity of a railway line with mixed traffic

“…Table 1 below shows the movement of trains between these stations [17]. Calculations can be made with complication of the modeling cycle and inclusion of calculations by the methods outlined, for example, in papers [18][19][20].Taking into account the time of departure and arrival of trains and intermediate stops, we find the value of the average route speed of the train on each of the sections of the polygon by the following formula 3.…”
