Abstract
Railway yard is the basic composition unit of railways, therefore, the efficiency and quality of railway yard design have a crucial effect on the construction and operation of railways. Plane design is the basis and core of railway yard design, consequently, it is significant to research plane design of railway yard. In this study, through analysis and summary of the research status as well as integrated application of computer technology and railway yard plane design methods, we researched and developed railway yard plane design system based on AutoCAD platform. According to the characteristics of railway yard plane design, we constructed the information model based on which we established specialized database, with the information data organized and managed efficiently; moreover, we put forward methods of constructing geometric models of the plane equipment, meanwhile, we did a focused research on associated design of yard equipment and preliminarily realized linkage design of planar yards.
Highlights
As the bond of the frontier and the back of stations, railway yard plays a key role (Peng et al, 2014)
According to the overall goal, the system is divided into four modules— project management, database, plane design and diagram output
The entity objects are similar to the internal entity of AutoCAD and reflect the object-oriented design concept
Summary
As the bond of the frontier and the back of stations, railway yard plays a key role (Peng et al, 2014). To begin with, we constructed scientific and reasonable railway yard information models, followed by the design of data models of equipment in railway yard plane; we established specialized database of railway yard plane, and researched on various associated design methods; we set up behavioral models of railway yard plane design; with AutoCAD adopted as the development platform, we Yuanxing Tang, Wencai Zhang Computer-aided model construction and database design of railway yard information developed new railway yard plane design system which can greatly improve the efficiency, quality and level of railway yard design. Overall goal of the system The overall goal of developing railway yard plane design system is to achieve functional maturation, process clearness, accurate calculation, standard graphical representation, simple operation, and meet the requirements of digital plane design (in the phases of pre-feasibility study, preliminary design and construction documents design) of railway yard (of mixed passenger and freight railway and high speed railway). The design process and graphic output are mutually independent; once the design is completed, design result output can be implemented rapidly by means of graphs and forms
