Abstract

The object of research is the development processes of transport and technological systems of railway ferries as complex technical systems. In the course of the study, a systematic approach to solving the scientific and technical problem of increasing the efficiency of maintenance of railway ferry services is used, for which a graphical method is used to analyze the formation of cause and effect ties with the construction of Ishikawa diagrams. According to the most informational criterion, the reserve for accelerating the speed of railcars on railway ferries is selected – a qualitative characteristic of the efficient use of the railway fleet, which directly depends on the reduction of railway outages in the port area, is promising. The research results provide a multifaceted picture that shows the possibility of reducing the time spent on the ship at the port by increasing the technical level of organizational work with rolling stock on access roads and loading them on a ferry. It also affects the state of the material and technical base for servicing rolling stock and the port base for loading ferries, the compatibility of operations of dispatch services and the need for appropriate information support. However, the development of these areas is impossible without ensuring conditions for the reliability of railway automation, automation and telemechanics, as well as advanced training of personnel for their maintenance. The compatibility of operations of dispatch services is implemented through the use of flexible forms of organization of cargo flows with the preparation of an optimal cargo plan for loading a railway ferry. The implementation of information support should take into account the synchronization of the information systems of the railway and port, as well as the relationship of automation with the work of the ferry, constantly updated with new software products. Based on the analysis, a program of measures has been drawn up for the development of transport and technological systems of railway ferries.The obtained results are aimed at increasing the efficiency, validity and effectiveness of management work on the operation of means of transport and can be used in carrying out research work of other objects of railway-water communication, in particular port railways.

Highlights

  • The use of ferry complexes is a promising and competitive way to deliver goods and is aimed at expanding international transport and economic ties

  • Increasing the efficiency of maintenance of railway ferry services is an important scientific and technical problem, the solution of which will contribute to an increase in freight traffic

  • Ferry stations are a highly developed infrastructure for processing ferry ships, loading them with cars and railway cars, forming and disbanding trains. This requires the synchronized operation of the railway and port services, is ensured by the reliable operation of transport and technological systems (TTS) – a complex technological complex that serves ferry berths, coastal devices and connecting loading bridges equipped with bag and head switches [2]

Summary

Introduction

The use of ferry complexes is a promising and competitive way to deliver goods and is aimed at expanding international transport and economic ties. Ferry stations are a highly developed infrastructure for processing ferry ships, loading them with cars and railway cars, forming and disbanding trains. This requires the synchronized operation of the railway and port services, is ensured by the reliable operation of transport and technological systems (TTS) – a complex technological complex that serves ferry berths, coastal devices and connecting loading bridges equipped with bag and head switches [2]. Continuous improvement of existing and the introduction of new operational measures require a system-analytical study of the TTS to identify promising ways to improve the efficiency of their maintenance. The object of research is the development processes of transport and technological systems of railway ferries as complex technical systems. Of the TTS of iron ferries, with the identification of promi­ sing development paths
