Concurrent Locomotive Assignment and Freight Train Scheduling
The locomotive assignment and the freight train scheduling are important problems in railway transportation. Freight cars are coupled to form a freight rake. The freight rake becomes a train when a locomotive is coupled to it. The locomotive assignment problem assigns locomotives to a set of freight rakes in a way that, with minimum locomotive deadheading time, rake coupling delay and locomotiv...
متن کاملLocomotive Assignment Optimization including Train Delays
Intention– Cyclic locomotive assignment planning is a specific type of organization of locomotive usage, and in fact, it means putting the complete workload to a closed chain, which is repeated periodically. The concept of cyclic locomotive assignment planning type organization in the area of train traction has proven in practice as the best one, but as it is made for in-advance defined timetab...
متن کاملSolving Precedence Constraint Traveling Salesman Problem using Genetic Algorithm
Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is an NP-hard Problem, which has so many different real life applications. Precedence Constraint TSP (PCTSP) is one specific type of TSP in which precedence is given to some cities. PCTSP also has numerous applications. Genetic Algorithms [1] are robust and probabilistic search algorithms based on the mechanics of natural selection and survival of fittest. This ...
متن کاملA Fast Heuristic Algorithm for the Train Unit Assignment Problem
In this paper we study a railway optimization problem known as the Train Unit Assignment Problem. A train unit consists of a self-contained train with an engine and a set of wagons with passenger seats. Given a set of timetabled train trips, each with a required number of passenger seats, and a set of train units, each with a given number of available seats, the problem calls for the best assig...
