Abstract
Railway operations require alignment between event-time-based timetables and speed-based train trajectories to enable effective interaction between traffic management and train operation across planning levels and real-time control. To support this alignment, this dissertation reviews standardisation activities and develops optimisation methods for Train Path Envelopes and event time flexibility. The proposed approaches support conflict-free operations, improve punctuality and energy efficiency, and provide insights for both academic research and railway practice.
