Stability and robustness analysis of acyclic timetable

To satisfy the growing passenger transportation demands and improve the service quality n railway system, a more stable and robust timetable needs to be designed while considering highly utilized capacity. Acyclic timetable is extensively applied in large ailway networks. In order to acquire the quality of timetable, analytical timetable...

A three-level framework for performance-based railway timetabling

The performance of railway operations depends highly on the quality of the railway timetable. In particular for dense railway networks it can be a challenge to obtain a stable robust conflict-free and energy-efficient timetable with acceptable infrastructure occupation and short travel times. This paper presents a performance-based railway...
