TimeTrain

From Softwise:

TimeTrain is a software that perform simulations of trains travels, allowing the user to obtain the diagrams of the dynamic parameters of the train in time (acceleration, velocity and displacement) and the effort of the engine and of the braking system. The main data required are the definition of: the railway definition, the trains and the speed limitations.

KEY FEATURES: - Definition of the railway layout through the sequential chaining of other layouts; - Definition of the train and of his friction, traction and braking curves; - Definition of the maximum train velocity along the railway, in addition to definition of the initial and final velocities; - Definition of the surface condition of the rails: wet or dry; - Control of the type of energy losses/ resistances to be considered in the calculation; - Definition of whether the program should or should not control the acceleration and the acceleration variation attending the user specified limits; - Consideration of tunnels, catenary neutral zones, local speed limitations, train stops/stations, etc; - Summary table with the main results of each analysis; - Definition in simultaneously of up to: 20 analysis cases, 20 trains and 20 railway layouts; - No interaction between different tracks and only one train by track; - Graphical interface intuitive and easy to use; - Multiple languages support.
