Automation of individual operations of the transport process to create sufficient conditions for the efficient functioning of digital transport and logistics

Abstract

The current evolution in information technology will enable the railway industry to bring the concept of a customer-centric marketing approach to life. At present, the main factor for ensuring the competitiveness of the transport company, which emphasizes the position in the transport services market, is to provide a service with a qualitatively new modern level of services, based on the opinion of consumers of these services. The digitalization of railway transport and logistics, the use of modern technical means and programs allows one to improve the efficiency of the transport complex in general and on separate subsystems, as well as to ensure high quality of services. The introduction of an automated procedure for the optimal placement and fastening of the cargo in the production process will allow transport and logistics market operators to predict the occurrence of risk cases at each stage of the transport process. Algorithms for selecting the type of rolling stock to transport the cargo of the relevant category and the typical scheme of placing cargo in it, as well as the method of fixing cargo, have been developed and presented. Since the digitization of supply chains depends more on the type of cargo and the type of rolling stock chosen for transport, the construction of algorithms is based on the example of a flat-base cargo. The development of the automated procedure is based on the construction of a model scheme for placing and fastening a particular type of cargo. The results of using the developed automated procedure make it possible to determine the magnitude of the load shift and tension in the fasteners under the influence of various factors.
