... efficiency for railway dynamics simulations [ 20 , 25 , 26 ] and optimizations [ 27 , 28 ]. In this paper, a parallel computing scheme as shown in Fig. 11 was developed in which the wagon brake systems are divided into a number of groups. This figure gives an example of four wagon brake system groups...
