Analysis of

The original plan to sue the pen for two months, the summer out of Sichuan. In no hurry, I usually choose rail travel. Think of Wenzhou723The accident. Some friends asked me, you not is a school, always encourages us to choose a High-speed Rail, said High-speed Rail very safe, why appear this kind of like the car as serious accident? To be honest, I never thought.

Wenzhou723And Ji'nan, and has since become428, Wenchuan512As an unlucky number symbols.2011-7-23This day just and Lai Changxing was sent back to China day coincidence, will enhance people's memory, as2008-5-12It's Shakya Muni's birthday lunar eighth of the fourth month in April. It seems old Lai is not good, is a disaster, He Lai in Canada do not come back. Canada twelve years his money out, no residual value in use. Canada sent him back to also do not have a good day.7Month22On the Beijing Zhuhai Expressway bus caught fire, death40People,7Month22Norway terrorist shootings, nearly 80 people died. These things are rushing in together, also. This hot July, this week also make people burning.

I'm not railway technical experts, but this twenty years, Southwest Jiao Tong University in the monasteries, learn some of the railway technical knowledge, this combined with their own engaged in explosion-proof environment of mechanical and electrical products R & D experience, according to see TV and Internet news as a preliminary diagnosis technology. Wenzhou723The State Council has set up the accident accident expert group, we heard that experts at the Southwest Jiao Tong University and the Beijing Jiaotong University have rushed to the scene to estimate, after half a year will be a final diagnosis analysis report, the conclusion will be open.

Overall, I think Wenzhou723Estimate is not responsible for the accident, but technical accident, and Ji'nan428The different properties of the accident. Of course, the Shanghai Railway Bureau leadership spread immediately play off, this is the Ministry of Railways of the practice, this is the railway transportation "(high most highly concentrated, big machine, semi military management)" features, is the embodiment of Chinese management system advantage. The railway as long as the emergence of major accidents, from top to bottom head immediately removed, so officials the psychological pressure of railway safety responsibility. As for the Minister of Railways Sheng Guangzu this is estimated that there will be a punishment, not class. He is the new minister, took only half a year, just pick peaches to enjoy7Month1On the Beijing Shanghai High-speed Rail operation glory, now under pressure is a natural. I hope you don't take him as a scapegoat.

From the analysis of the situation of EMU operation, Wenzhou723The accident should not railway hardware accident, this line is the rapid railway, designed to speed250Kilometers per hour, traveling for a few years, not in the running in period. The scene of the accident the photos also visible track and Bridge no problem, the quality is no problem, contact no problem. Contact interval main power supply system no by lightning and lost power, not and then the car will not continue to train.

Now the focus of the issue before the car stopped, after the car why don't know? The railway is normally four display system of automatic block, has set aside enough safe distance. Rapid railway line is smooth, observation distance is sufficient, car drivers don't doze off fatigue driving. This is not the train driver, the glorious sacrifice, no responsibility. Now the high-speed train are automatic driving control system, the driver only supervises auxiliary role. The drivers will be at the Southwest Jiao Tong University to obtain a driver's license to mount guard training, railway, the train driver is more strict requirements to.

My personal analysis first may be the vehicle communication system out of the question, Liu Zhijun made the introduction of digestion and absorption of re innovation, the line ran trains from Japanese technology, train control system of small Japan may stay in the hand, but is not expected to be a logic bomb, small Japan won't take credit to joke, he doesn't want to the Chinese High-speed Rail orders. Car car communication belongs to the wireless communication technology, is very likely the train just in the strike zone, great lightning current from the pantograph afferent, destroyed by the flow system and the drive system and the communication system of the vehicle in front of the front of the vehicle in front, look dynamic part doesn't appear to have touched a rotten cake, and now the car has the black box, known as the system of record traffic monitoring, found the original information sufficiently expert analysis.

My personal analysis of second may be the ground track circuit block signal system problem. The railway track is divided into a section of occlusions, to identify the block has no train this most primitive signal based on track circuit, and derives the subsequent scheduling and control signal according to, after the car has been opened, the front signal must show is light, so the root of the problem is the front car occupied block information source error.

So Is it right? Caused by track circuit insulation failure, also seems unlikely, when High-speed Rail design must consider the lightning factors. I'm in the gas station monitoring system transmission and distribution, to add the fence and anti surge lightning protection system, circuit to add the blast shield tube, instruments for explosion-proof design and inspection. Electrical and circuit railway under the car in the open environment, if found not secure these devices, and these devices do not access license, then to deal with people is not a few problems.

Conclusion personal analysis: Wenzhou723Accident, most likely originated from the contact segment are lightning failure zone, the causes of the accident. To improve the High-speed Rail railway contact net now anti lightning technology design standards, in the high-speed railway viaduct and prone to lightning phenomena block, in the contact net with covering of lightning current drainage net, without leaving any dead space.

In addition the future technology should consider train all system and electrical failure in no power supply and electrical components of lightning in extreme cases, under the existing to ensure their own safety parking at the same time, for after the car and scheduling system to provide correct occlusion information, can consider to use pure mechanical sound and track sound detection.

The current system of high-speed railway in Gaoqiao large tunnel sections or to learn the normal speed railway system, not to engage in synergism of depletion of numbers, to preserve and added with man on duty system, emergency use communication cable telephone report.

There is no absolute security 100% security technology in the world, Wenzhou723The accident is a small probability event, but not zero probability event, accident reveals the current limitations and gaps international high-speed rail technology. In Chinese take the high-speed railway EMU travel is relatively safe, this accident dead shortage40One idea, plane fell down, a man's man inescapable. Have a look the car bus highway on fire, and burned lose one's beyond recognition. Choose sitting railway, or safe a lot. Even in case of accident, and the chance of survival.

Note appended.

Four forty-one on April 28, 2008, Beijing bound for Qingdao Olympic Star passenger train to Shandong, Jiaoji Railway from Zhoucun to Wang Cun between off-line, collided with the 5034 bus from Yantai to Xuzhou. Jiaoji railway train crash that killed 72 people, injured 416 people

Postscript: 2011-12-25 national official Wenzhou accident report
(a) the cause of the accident.

The survey found, the cause of the accident is: Tong group belongs to control chaos & Design Institute Management Center equipment R & D in LKD2-T1 type column, Tong Group as Yong Wen line communication signal integration contractor perform their duties effectively, resulting in LKD2-T1 type for Yong Wen line WenZhou South Railway Station train control center equipment has serious design flaws and significant security hidden danger. The Ministry of Railways in the type LKD2-T1 Train Control Center Equipment Tendering and bidding, technical review, on the use of illegal operations, not strict, resulting in its use in WenZhou South Railway Station. When the WenZhou South Railway Station train control center collection driving insurance tube unit acquisition circuit power supply circuit F2 lightning data fuse, no longer updated, error control code track circuit and signal display, make the operation is not safe. Lightning is caused by transmitter with the column of 5829AG track circuit control fault communication center. So starting from YongJia Railway Station automatic brake D3115 train overspeed protection system to the WenZhou South Railway Station, parking in the 5829AG section. Because the code track circuit abnormalities, leading to its rotating visual driving mode trucks, 7 minutes and 40 seconds after the turn for the visual driving mode with less than 20 kilometers per hour speed to the WenZhou South Railway Station slowly, failed to timely exit 5829 block section. From the WenZhou South Railway Station train control center is not collected information on the occupancy of the D3115 train in the 5829AG section of the WenZhou South Railway Station, the train control center under the jurisdiction of the 5829 block and two subsequent block protection signal error display lights, is sent to the D301 train car free occupation codes, leading to train D301 to the D3115 train and collision. Shanghai Railway Bureau relevant personnel safety awareness is not strong, the equipment fault occurs, not correctly perform their duties, fault disposal work is not effective, unable to avoid accidents or reduce accident loss function.

(two) the nature of the accident.

The survey found, "7 · 23" Yong Wen line special major railway traffic accident is because the train control center equipment serious design flaws, on the road to use review lax supervision, the lightning caused poor emergency response after equipment failure caused by factors such as the liability accident.
