TL;DR: In this paper, a beam model was used to model the adhesion characteristics after saturation of adhesion force between the wheel and rail in a wet condition for wheel slip prevention control for railway vehicles.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the experimental results about the new wheel slip prevention control by the sliding mode control theory and compared with the conventional control laws, and showed high brake performances under nonlinear characteristics of brake dynamics.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the experimental results from the new wheel-slip prevention control using nonlinear robust control theory, which proved the comparative effectiveness of the proposed control and showed high brake performance under nonlinear characteristics of brake dynamics.

TL;DR: In this article, a new type of wheel slip prevention control, using sliding mode control, is presented, while comparing some conventional control laws. But the simulation results prove the effectiveness of the proposed control compared with conventional equivalents, and show high braking performance under nonlinearity of brake dynamics.
