The Optimization Model and Algorithm for Train Connection at Transfer Stations in Urban Rail Transit Network
In urban rail transit network, the passenger transfer time depends on the train connection states in transfer stations, so the optimization of the connection relations of arrival and departure time among trains is significant to improve the level of transfer service. Here, with the psychology of waiting passengers taken into consideration, the cost function of transfer waiting times has been es...
متن کاملComparative Analysis and Pedestrian Simulation Evaluation on Emergency Evacuation Test Methods for Urban Rail Transit Stations
The emergency evacuation test method of rail transit station not only affects the operation safety of the station, but it also has significant influence on the scale and cost of the station. A reasonable test method should guarantee both the safety of evacuation and that the investment is neither excessive nor too conservative. The paper compares and analyzes the differences of the existing eme...
متن کاملExploring Comparative Ridership Drivers of Bus Rapid Transit and Light Rail Transit Routes
A major research gap is the relative ridership performance of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), Light Rail Transit (LRT), and streetcar (SC). This paper assesses ridership influences of 101 routes in Australia, Europe, and North America using multiple regression examining the influence of transit mode, vehicle capacity, service level, employment/residential density, car ownership, speed, stop spacing, r...
متن کاملModelling Pedestrian Circulation in Rail Transit Stations Using Micro-Simulation
Rail transit with its high passenger capacity and high efficiency has become one of the preferred alternatives to automobile travel. This is evident in the increasing patronage of rail travel especially in urban areas. As a result, many railway stations experience high levels of pedestrian congestion especially during the morning and afternoon peak periods. Traditional design and evaluation pro...
متن کاملEvaluating Rail Transit Criticism
This report evaluates criticism of rail transit systems. It examines claims that rail transit is ineffective at increasing public transit ridership and improving transportation system performance, that rail transit investments are not cost effective, and that transit is an outdated form of transportation. It finds that critics often misrepresent issues and use biased and inaccurate analysis. Th...
