A Set of Products for Remote Control of Rolling Stock Characteristics

Abstract

A modern specialist in the field of maintenance and repair of rolling stock needs to constantly have access to up-to-date information about the technical condition, equipment and location of serviced units. This article analyzes the existing software products and applications that allow you to plan and manage the processes of repair work and operation. The work is devoted to the creation of products for finding up-to-date information about the technical condition of rolling stock units both on a personal computer and in an online application environment. Programs have the ability to be updated and supported, including bug fixes. The use of the proposed tools will allow a specialist in the field of logistics, maintenance and repair of rolling stock to increase the efficiency of forecasting, organization of transport processes and repair work. The algorithms of operation of each software product are formed in the work. The algorithms are presented in the form of flowcharts. The generated database is presented. Geometric parameters and wheelset numbers, dates of the last maintenance and overhaul, location were added to the presented database in accordance with the number. An array of data with photos of car was also created. The article presents a text written in the Python programming language. This language made it possible to fully implement the algorithm of the products actions. During the testing of the programs, the operation of the main functions was checked, namely, the search for parameters by the composition number. The work solved the problem of displaying photos and videos on the screen at the users request. This function will reduce the time to choose a rolling stock unit for rent and control the quality of repairs. The results of the work of programs in the environment of online applications and on a personal computer are presented in the form of drawings. When creating a software product in an online application environment, the issue of data transfer security (whitelist, password encryption, end-to-end encryption, as well as copy and forwarding protection) was resolved.
