The project follows up and develops the results of the project CK01000043 System for supporting network time coordination of connections at interchange nodes solved in the years 2020 - 2022 and focused on the issue of node network time coordination. However, in public transport systems (PTS), there are also some operators that in some subsystems (tram network) prefer section network time coordination or a combination of both types of coordination which is a main target of the proposed project. The main goal of the project is to design a higher level of network coordination with integrating the results of the currently solved project into the results of the proposed project. Results of the project will be validated in the conditions of PTS operators in the cities of Prague and Ostrava.
The main goal of the project is the development of the function prototype of the ""Intelligent End of Train"" and their function verification in real conditions. In particular, its transmission, measuring, control and power supply systems will be implemented. The whole systemwill be verified under the operating conditions of rail freight transport. The resulting functional prototype should contain components and functional algorithms to enable the realisation of a prototype and mass production of a commercial product to be deployed as an interoperable system on EU railways.
The aim of the project is to develop a new method for railway superstructure emission noise assessment.The principle will be a combination of optical and acoustic sensors placed in the near field of the rail-wheel contact,which will isolate the rolling noise emission from other noise-generating phenomena during a train passing.Thus,it will be possible to assess the acoustic emission of the railway superstructure itself and to monitor its quality in a continuous,systematic and non-invasive way and in a much shorter time than during other static assessments.Early detection and trend monitoring will allow to optimize the maintenance and will prevent rail lifespan shortenings and excessive noise emission.The detection will also significantly support the processes digitization.
The aim of this project is to formulate a generally usable methodology for design of network-wide operational concept of long-distance train lines on Rapid Services network and, in particular,on adjoining railway lines.The accordance with actual legislative will be ensured. The methodology will include layout of train lines into homogeneous and efficient passenger operations packages, where each one can be operated by another train operating company. The methodology will combine application of mathematical rules of Integrated Periodic Timetable with restricting conditions, derived from coordinated timetabling of more train lines of different segments.The operational concept, based on the methodology,will be used for official Public Transport Conception. Line packaging will be done as well.
The aim of the project is to increase the protection, resilience and security of railway infrastructure elements against current and potential future threats. Research will focus mainly on (1) prediction of significant threats to railway infrastructure and subsequent design of technical measures to raise the level of protection for railway infrastructure soft targets and related infrastructure of other transport operators, (2) protection of passengers during evacuation from railway stations (3) information about threats and incidents at transport infrastructure elements.
The project is focused on analysis and prediction of data produced by public transport systems operated within the framework of transport services of integrated transport systems. The uniqueness lies in the use of a combination of data sources of the multimodal planner, dispatching and billing system, the ability to assign transaction and other information to a specific traffic link in real-time driving. The project is planned for 3 years and will produce 6 outputs, which will allow to store, analyze and predict data. It will create a data storage, three SW for data analysis and prediction, a tool for personification of multimodal planning and a SW tool for support of operational and strategic management of public transport. The functionality will be verified by conducting a pilot plant.
The main goal of the project is to create a system for the support of network optimization of public transport, so that its planning will use advanced computational methods. The proposed optimization approach will be described in a methodology certified by the Ministry of Transport. It is expected that the results generated within the project will be validated in the last year of the project on case studies in two cities (Prague and Ostrava), where public transport plays a key role in terms of population mobility. A higher level of coordination is expected to increase the attractiveness and competitiveness of public transport in relation to individual car transport, which, in large cities in particular, causes significant negative impacts on the quality of life of the population.
The goal of the VEXA project is the development of an expert system which will be able to substitute reaction and decision-making abilities of train drivers to predefined inputs. The inputs cover different sources, among others sensors monitoring obstacles or fire, or configuration and actual status of the environment. These inputs will be compared to the legislative and operational rules and based on that will provide output to other train control systems. The algorithms will also cover the psychosomatic characteristics of the train drivers. The solution will be based on a detailed system analysis, data collection, definition of interfaces, system architecture and mathematical analysis to assess its impact and operation parameters.
The main objective of the project is to create a methodical procedure enabling the introduction and operation of systematic training of train drivers with the use of rail vehicle simulators in the CZ. The outputs of this project will be directly applicable to the legislative process of obtaining and verifying the professional competence of drivers and will serve as the basic specifications for the systematic introduction of this process in the Czech Republic. The project is taking the first necessary step to realize and fulfill the idea of introducing systematic training of drivers in the CZ, which is stated in the Implementation Plan for the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) AP in the CZ by 2020 approved by the Czech Government.

The project aim is to determine the impact of the railway track construction on noise emissions. The measurements of the noise emissions from specific trains passing through different structures of the superstructure will be carried out. There are several methodologies (both foreign and domestic) using for calculating the emissions of noise from passing trains on the railway line design modifications but none are tested on the current situation in the Czech Republic in terms of the fleet composition, structure and characteristics of the trains and track design. There are the disproportions between the calculated values and the noise level after adjustments implemented realistically measured so often. The project will respond to the question of which construction of the railway superstructure which causes emission of noise from the moving trains in according with reference to the Czech Republic terms.
