Railways are in need of technological and operational enhancements to achieve the EU strategic vision of a sustainable, integrated transport system. Beside the deployment of digital signalling and automatic train operations, advanced rail traffic management is critical to increas ...
To further improve the capacity on the European railway network, next-generation distance-to-go signalling systems are being developed in the context of the European Train Control System (ETCS). This paper investigates the impact of track discretisation granularity on conflict de ...
In case of disturbed railway operations, traffic management can apply rescheduling measures to resolve conflicts while minimising delay propagation. This can be optimised by conflict detection and resolution (CDR) models. Usually based on alternative graph or mixed integer linear ...
Railway industry is developing advanced signalling systems like moving block to improve network capacity. In traditional fixed-block systems, safe train separation is determined based on a fixed number of block sections representing worst-case braking distances. In moving-block s ...
Conflict detection and resolution models are being developed to support railway traffic management in taking optimised rescheduling decisions in case of disturbances. Existing models mostly concern fixed-block signalling systems, in which minimum train separation distances are de ...
Railway traffic management is responsible for the detection and resolution of conflicts in case of disturbed operations. To minimise delay propagation, rescheduling decisions are taken by human dispatchers, possibly supported by mathematical models. Existing conflict detection an ...

Deliverable D4.1

Real-Time Traffic Rescheduling Algorithms and Perturbation Management and Hazard Prevention in Moving-Block Operations

This deliverable has the objective to define a mathematical model for an optimised real-time management of railway traffic under Moving Block (MB). The formulated real-time traffic management model contains: i) a core module for the detection and the sub-optimal resolution of tra ...
