Shumliakivskyi V. The improvement of traction properties of M2 category vehicles in intelligent transportation systems

The thesis is dedicated to the improvement of the implementation of traction properties of category M2 buses in cities with the help of modern ITS components. Factors that impact negatively on the operational efficiency of route bus services provided to city passengers were analyzed. The classification of the typical movement obstacles was suggested and mathematical models of equivalent circuits for various obstacles were calculated. The conceptual solution for improving the implementation of traction properties by increasing the average vehicle speed with the help of ITS technologies was given. The model of the average technical speed of vehicles of M2 category considering the correlation with artificial obstacles on the route and their likely resistance to the movement was improved.
