In this paper, a tentative attempt at introducing the fuzzy set theory into quantitative analysis and assessment of URT trains' failures was presented. Based on the proposed FMEA-fuzzy model, a com- puter aided system for URT maintenance optimization was developed. The overall structure and procedure of the system were described in detail, and the important issues, including the development environment, improvement to FMEA table, acquisition of weight distribution matrix P, and setting of fuzzy vector R, were also discussed. Initial application into the vehicle maintenance of Shanghai Metro System shows, that the proposed model and computer aided system have a good performance and consequently are worth further development.展开更多

Taking this reduction effect into account, the average values of the reduction coefficients relate to the machine parameters in complicated forms. In this paper, an effective algorithm for the precise computation of the average values of these reduction coefficients is proposed. Furthermore, in the algorithm, the effect of the insulation thickness between the commutator segments and the multiplicity of the wave winding are considered for the first time. The proposed algorithm can also be accommodated into the computer-aided design (CAD) of a DC machine, which normally runs at extremely low speed or standstill.展开更多
