Sažetak

Today, reducing the energy consumption of rail systems is one of the issues that attract researchers' attention. There are many methods to reduce energy consumption and coasting control method has been used in this study. The driving modelling of the vehicle has been carried out by considering all parameters. A new objective function has been determined and for optimization, genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm have been preferred. The study has been tested with the data of Ankaray metro line. When the proposed optimized driving has been compared with practical driving of the vehicle, the energy savings rate is 13.79% in GA and 13.45% in ABC for a driving. Despite these significant savings ratios, the increase in travel time has been calculated at 1.7% in GA and 1.55% in ABC. When the obtained savings rates are considered annually, this study may greatly contribute to sustainable life.
