  FAQ on Railway Technology and Traction Drives 

  http://www.cecube.co.uk/news/faq.htm

  Welcome to Cecube Frequently Asked Questions. These pages address commonly asked traction related questions. They have a technical bias to varying degrees, dealing with electrical and mechanical matters ... related to traction drive vehicles such as regen brake and slip/slide control, as well as software and simulation. More general Railway FAQ regarding services, passenger issues and rolling stock class information are covered on numerous other sites. However, if your question is traction specific and is not addressed here please contact us . Q1. Why is there not a single simulation product suitable for all aspects of traction modelling? The investment required to develop a robust numerical engine for a simulator is considerable. In the electrical / systems domain the MATLAB TM and SPICE engines dominate the marketplace and most products involve developing front-end user interfaces (e.g SIMULINK) for these engines. The proprietary MATLAB engine is a powerful mathematical tool capable of s   [More...] [Less...]
