Multi-objective railway timetabling including energy-efficient train trajectory optimization

Energy-efficient train driving is an important topic to railway undertakings (RUs) for sustainability and cost reduction. The timetable affects the possibilities for energy-efficient train driving by the amount of running time supplements, which is the topic of energy-efficient train timetabling (EETT). The scientific literature on EETT...

Optimal running time supplement distribution in train schedules for energy-efficient train control

Energy-efficient train driving can lead to a significant reduction in both CO₂ emissions and energy consumption. A lot of research has been done on the topic of energy-efficient train control that minimizes total traction energy consumption. Furthermore, the running time supplements in the timetable determine the possibilities for...
