Item Determining the Rational Motion Intensity of Train Traffic Flows on the Railway Corridors with Account for Balance of Expenses on Traction Resources and Cargo Owners(Sciendo, 2019) Butko, Tetiana V.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Prokhorchenko, Andrii V.; Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Prokhorchenko, HalynaENG: The article proposes a method for determining the rational motion intensity of specific train traffic flows on railway transport corridors with account for balance of expenses on traction resources and cargo owners. A mathematical model based on stochastic optimization is developed, which allows to optimize, in the conditions of risks, the interval between trailing trains on the railway lines taking into account the limited resources of the traction rolling stock, the capacity of the stations and freight fronts at the cargo destination point. Solving this mathematical model allows to find a balance between the expenses for movement of train traffic flows from different railway lines to their terminal reference station and the expenses of a consignee, subject to the limitations of the technological logistics chain in cargo transportation. For the solution of this mathematical model, a Real-coded Genetic Algorithm (RGA) was used.Item Evaluation of Effectiveness of Piggyback Traffic within the National Network of International Transport Corridors of Ukraine(Publishing House of University of Technology, Katowice, 2022) Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Kuzmenko, AlbinaENG: The increasing role of education and science in modern society has caused changes in its understanding.

A characteristic feature of railroads with such a traffic system is the difficulty in predicting the stages of a transportation process, which necessitates the development of effective methods of forecasting. Based on correlation analysis, we have determined the dependence of the general macro-characteristics of train flow and individual parameters of a freight train on the duration of its movement along a section. It has been proposed to represent the dependence of predicted duration of train movement along a railroad section on the following factors: traffic intensity and density along a section, the proportion of passenger trains in total train flows, the length of a train and its gross weight. All experimental studies are based on actual data on the operation of the distance Osnova-Lyubotyn at the railroad network AO Ukrzaliznytsya. Based on a comparative analysis, using the indicators for accuracy and adequacy of several regression methods to predict ETA of cargo dispatch, we have chosen the regression model based on an artificial neural network MLP. To derive the MLP structure, a cross-validation method has been applied, which implies the validation of a mathematical model reliability based on the criteria of accuracy MAE and adequacy ‒ F-test. The structure of MLP has been obtained, which consists of five hidden layers. We predicted the time that it would take for a train to travel in facing direction along the Osnova-Lyubotyn section. For a given projection, the value for MAE was 0.0845, which is a rather high accuracy for this type of problems, and confirms the effectiveness of MLP application to solve the task on predicting a cargo dispatch ETA. The current study provides a possibility to design in the future an automated system for predicting a cargo dispatch ETA for a mixed-traffic railroad system in which freight trains depart not complying with a regulatory schedule.Item Formulation of the Mathematical Model for the Planning System in the Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail(IOP Publishing, 2020) Bibik, Svitlana I.; Strelko, Oleh; Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Kuzmenko, AlbinaENG: The paper aims to the topical issue of improving the system in the planning of carriage of dangerous goods by rail subject to ensuring a high level of safety of the transport process and minimal costs for its implementation. Formalization of this process leads to the formation of an optimization task of the two-stage mathematical model. To implement the first stage, a mathematical model in searching the best route based on risk minimization is developed. In order to exclude the unacceptably complex and expensive options for the carriage of dangerous goods from the many possible routes, the authors abided by the condition not to exceed the critical operating costs. The second stage in the process of planning routes for dangerous goods takes into account the hazard identification study in the technological process of car movement with dangerous goods. Considering that the probability of a potential traffic accident is a complex random variable, which is due to a set of elementary previously unknown events, its estimation was made on the basis of the Bayesian approach. Based on the simulation results, the following reliability values are determined at which a transport accident should not emerge.Item An Improved Method of Determining the Schemes of Locomotive Circulation with Regard to the Technological Peculiarities of Railcar Traffic(НВП ПП «Технологічний Центр», Харків, 2016) Butko, Tetiana V.; Prokhorchenko, Andrii V.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.UKR: Запропоновано удосконалення методів визначення схем обігу локомотивів з урахуванням технологічних особливостей вагонопотоків.

Лазаряна, Дніпро, 2018) Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Bekh, Petro V.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Avramenko, Svetlana I.ENG: Purpose. The work is aimed to investigate the feasibility of transferring automatic control to low-density stations of the sections (according to the principle of supervisory control of train line) to the operators at principal stations. Methodology. The article analyzes the work of heavy traffic sections of the Ukrainian Railways JSC. It was found out that the information workload of dispatchers who control the train movement at the sections of the main course, constantly exceeds the permissible level. The possibility of using the technology of supervisory control of train movement by the introduction of operational zones has been investigated. Findings. The authors found out that the capacity of receiving and departure tracks at the stations of the sections is extremely limited. The occupancy of passing loop by the out-of-work trains hinders any regulatory measures at the sections. Trains pass one after another without giving priority, that is, they pass through the section in the order in which they entered it. Due to the limited number of tracks at the front-line intermediate station, freight trains are set for passing by the passenger ones at the distant approaches. This leads to a loss of service speed and reduces the level of utilization of the sections` working capacity. The introduction of operational zones will significantly reduce information flows and facilitate the work of the train dispatchers at the, create the necessary conditions for creative decision-making on the internal section regulation, and will contribute to increase in the service speed of trains. Originality. The article developed a new technology to improve the management of train sections by dividing them into operational zones. In each zone, consisting of two or three passes, the train movement can be controlled by the duty officer of the principal station, performing in this case the functions of the train dispatcher. Practical value. It has been proposed to put trains from technical stations that idle due to uneven movement, especially the trains from the terminal stations (division points) of the locomotive circulation sections, to reserve routes of the front-line intermediate stations. Laying the reserve tracks and their content, taking into account the frequency of use and reduced allowable speed, can be allowed according to less tight standards for the construction of the roadbed, ballast section, sleeper density, taking into account the use of switches and decommissioned tracks.Item Improvement of the Automated Control Technology of Trains Traffic with Dangerous Goods(IEEE, 2021) Bibik, Svitlana I.; Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Kuzmenko, AlbinaENG: This article is devoted to the actual issue of improving the automated control technology of trains traffic with dangerous goods due to the addition of the existing set of tasks. These tasks are solved on the basis of operating automatized working places of dispatching personnel, by the software for decision-making support system developed on the basis of the graph of the Bayesian Belief Network that describes the security status of trains traffic en route. The scientific value of the article lies in the development of new technology for planning and managing the transport of dangerous goods through intelligent support for decisions at the tactical and operational levels.Item Non-Destructive Control Data Analysis of Railroad Foundation Constructions(Dnipro National University of Railway Transport named after Academician V. Lazaryan, 2019) Trofimov, Alexander; Kuzmenko, Albina I.; Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Avramenko, Svitlana I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Mormul, Nikolaj; Sokhatsky, AnatoliyENG: Abstract. The evaluation of the parameters of multi-layered foundations (railroad basis, foundations of railway structures, etc.) plays an important role in ensuring the safe movement of trains. The method of estimating the mechanical and geometric parameters of such foundations based on the solutions of inverse problems for multi-layered elastic packets is proposed. As input data for such problems the measured displacements of certain points on the package surface are used. The method allows estimating the parameters of the a priori distribution of unknown variable parameters, identifying and excluding outliers of the measured data from the created model, and constructing a posteriori estimation of the unknown parameters probability density with acceptable resolution. Proposed method can be used to create a new generation of equipment intended for non-destructive monitoring and estimating of the condition of the railroad basis and the foundations of artificial structures. The appropriate software of such vehicles based on the developed methods of data processing can be developed. The use of such equipment allows to operatively analyzing the state of individual areas of the railroad to decide on the need of repairing or replacing the railroad base or foundation of other elements of railroad infrastructure.Item Practical Aspects of Improving the Operation Interaction of the Station and Sidings(Silesian University of Technology, Katowice, 2019) Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Avramenko, Svetlana I.ENG: Summary. This research deals with the analysis of the main parameters of the freight operation at the railway station. The modern scientific works on improving the interaction of the station and sidings were analysed. In order to improve the operation interaction of sidings with the Dnipro-Holovnyi railway station and to reduce the time of cars` inactivity, an improved technology of work was proposed. The variants of operation interaction of the station and sidings according to the existing and improved technology were compared. The improved technology of the station's operation makes it possible to significantly reduce the inactivity of local car and the average duration of the car's standing under one cargo operation. The track occupancy coefficient in the receiving-departure yard decreases as well.Item Study of Car Traffic Flow Structure on Arrival and Departure at the Marshalling Yard X(Дніпропетровський національний університет залізничного транспорту імені академіка В. Лазаряна, Дніпропетровськ, 2016) Nesterenko, Galina I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Horobets, Volodymyr L.; Muzykina, Svetlana I.ENG: The paper is aimed to analyse the existing car traffic organization at the marshalling yard aimed to reduce downtime of cars. Methodology. The methods of mathematical statistics allowed building the histogram of car traffic flow distribution at the marshalling yard and assessment of their parameters. The key quantitative and qualitative indicators of the station operation were analyzed. In order to analyze the effect of rehandling volume on the rehandled transit car downtime elements at the station we plotted the dependence graph of the car downtime elements on the rehandling volume. The curve variation on the graph clearly shows the effect of rehandling volume on two downtime elements: during formation and in expectation of operations. Findings. The question of reducing the average downtime of all car categories at the station should be solved by reducing unproductive downtime was proved. The correct determination of the average time spent by a rehandled transit car at the station is essential, especially in the conditions of new system of economic incentives. But still there is no separate methodology for determining the car downtime, which would allow to objectively consider the equipment and operation technology and exclude the possibility for subjective decisions. Originality. One of the main kinds of unproductive downtime during the carriage of goods by rail is a downtime on the marshalling yards in expectation of technological operations because of the system congestion. Reduction of this indicator is possible due to rational use of the marshalling yard capacity provided the rational distribution and car – and train flows between the major marshalling yards of Ukrzaliznytsia. Practical value. The analysis of changes in downtime elements, depending on the rehandling volume allows not only to identify the car downtime reduction methods, but also to make a correct assessment of station staff work, as well as to adjust the rate of idle wagons.Item Ways to Increase Railway Competitiveness(Державний університет інфраструктури та технологій, Київ, Україна, 2022) Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Strelko, Oleh; Shcherbyna, Rozalia; Pavlenko, OlenaENG: Nowadays, railway transport is the most developed in Ukraine. It is the heart of transport services for individuals and legal entities, without it is difficult to imagine the normal functioning of production facilities and logistics firms. Rail transport also occupies the main place among domestic traffic. Passenger transportation occupies a significant place in the work of transport, so suburban transportation occupies the second place in terms of mass transportation after intercity transportation by automobile transport . The demand for this type of transportation can be called elastic, since there is an impact of seasonality on transportation, for example, the beginning and ending of academic semesters, vacation time. Therefore, it is advisable to consider tourist trains that could run on sections of the Dnіpro-Pіvdennij station – Apostolovo station, Dnіpro-Pіvdennij station – Surskoye station, Dnіpro-Pіvdennij station – Zhovtokamenka station, Dnіpro-Pіvdennij station – Elizarovo station. The article provides graphs of the movement of these trains, allowing passengers to visit attractions along the entire route. Consequently, tourist routes can improve the development of tourism throughout Ukraine, and not popular destinations. This may result in increased demand for tourist trains, increased monetization of passenger transportation, thereby improving passenger comfort.Item Ways to Increase Railway Competitiveness(Державний університет інфраструктури та технологій, Київ, 2022) Nesterenko, Halyna I.; Muzykin, Mykhailo I.; Strelko, Oleh; Shcherbyna, Rozalia; Pavlenko, OlenaENG: Nowadays, railway transport is the most developed in Ukraine.

The paper identifies the problems and ways to implement the measures to increase the working and carrying capacity of railway lines. The analysis of this problem shows that for Ukrainian rail network there is no holistic approach to formalize procedures for calculating the working capacity of track sections taking into account technological features of passage of individual car traffic volumes. In addition, there are few studies of factors that influence the level of working capacity use. This necessitates research in this area, which can be a basis for calculating working capacity of sections depending on the influence of various factors. The main ways to increase the working and carrying capacity of railway lines are to increase the weight and length of the trains. But it is a difficult complex task. When solving this task it should be considered restrictions on the useful length of station tracks, restrictions on the traction force of locomotives, possible reduction of train service speed, and many other additional factors. Increase of the train weight makes it possible to increase the carrying capacity of railway lines on the average by 10-30%. But the problem of train weight is closely connected with analysis of the length of existing receiving and departure tracks on the main directions of train movement of OJSC "Ukrainian Railways." Having analyzed the working capacity reserve at all the existing lines of Dnipropetrovsk Management of Rail Transportations we can conclude that the available working capacity exceeds the required one (the reserve is sufficient).
