Week 1

         3^rd February ,2023  

 Aims for Week 1:

  1. Find resources about hydrogen train. 

  2. Understand train parameters and railway simulation on MATLAB.

  3. Determine the final goal for this project.

Actions for Week 1:

  1. Reading resources. 

"Operation and energy evaluation of diesel and hybrid trains with smart switching controls". 

"Pareto-based Multi-objective Optimization of Energy Management for Fuel Cell Tramway"

"Comparison study on life-cycle costs of different trams powered by fuel cell systems and others"

"A rule-based energy management strategy for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV)"

The resources' understanding will continue for all four weeks

   2. Determine that the final goal is to calculate the hydrogen consumption of a specific type of hydrogen train on the set route. Then, design an energy management system to optimize the output. 

  3. With the help of superior and PhD, determine parameters, build models of train and route by MATLAB. (STS code)

Work for next week:

  By work allocation, we divided our targets into two main tasks.

  One was to calculate the total consumption of the hydrogen. There are two students responsible for this part. The other was to attempt to build EMS. Three students aim to overcome this difficulty. And the common aim for everyone was to have a deeper understanding of STS code.     

                

                                     Gather on the first day, reading materials and have discussions
