Abstract
Braking system plays an important role in urban rail vehicle; its performance directly affects the safety and reliability of the train operation. To analyze the performance of braking system, AMESim is applied in this paper, since establishment of a physical model is time-consuming and money-wasting. In the light of the structure and mechanism, every functional block of the braking system is set up utilizing AMESim. Several simulating scenarios are investigated in this paper. The simulation results show that the model built by using AMESim can simulate the dynamical behavior, and it can be used for analyzing the braking system fault, etc.
