Optimization method of passenger train plan based on stop schedule plan for passenger dedicated line

Abstract

This paper analyzed the deficiency of traditional method for working out passenger train plan. An optimization method of passenger train plan based on stop schedule plan under the conditions of passenger dedicated line was put forward. It gave a comprehensive consideration of train-origin/terminal-station, paths, trains grade, quantity of dispatched train, stop schedule plan. Optimization model was established just as formula 9, 10 and 11. This paper programmed calculation of passenger train plan with Matlab according to the new method, and a satisfactory result of the example just as table 4 and 5 was obtained.
