  • Abstract
    The paper presents an imposed distance braking method for urban railway vehicles, free of external devices and maintaining a constant braking effort thanks to a position controller. Its application improves the comfort and the traffic safety and reduces the weariness of the material and the perturbations injected into the electric power network
