Spatial Layout Planning in Sub-Surface Rail Station Design for Effective Fire Evacuation
INTRODUCTION Underground stations can broadly be divided into two methods of construction: cut and cover (i.e. excavating a trench and recovering) and tunnelling. The station layout is mostly comprised of the areas that are common to all stations and their spatial planning must be set out with a thorough understanding of passenger circulation patterns. The station components, namely the ticket ...
متن کاملSub-transmission sub-station expansion planning based on bacterial foraging optimization algorithm
In recent years, significant research efforts have been devoted to the optimal planning of power systems. Substation Expansion Planning (SEP) as a sub-system of power system planning consists of finding the most economical solution with the optimal location and size of future substations and/or feeders to meet the future load demand. The large number of design variables and combination of discr...
متن کاملEvacuation Planning: A Spatial Network Database Approach
Efficient tools are needed to identify routes and schedules to evacuate affected populations to safety in face of natural disasters or terrorist attacks. Challenges arise due to violation of key assumptions (e.g. stationary ranking of alternative routes, Wardrop equilibrium) behind popular shortest path algorithms (e.g. Dijkstra’s, A*) and microscopic traffic simulators (e.g. DYNASMART). Time-e...
متن کاملA Feeder-Bus Dispatch Planning Model for Emergency Evacuation in Urban Rail Transit Corridors
The mobility of modern metropolises strongly relies on urban rail transit (URT) systems, and such a heavy dependence causes that even minor service interruptions would make the URT systems unsustainable. This study aims at optimally dispatching the ground feeder-bus to coordinate with the urban rails' operation for eliminating the effect of unexpected service interruptions in URT corridors. A f...
متن کاملA simulation study for fire extinguisher manufacturing process layout design
This article provides a case study for a fire extinguisher manufacturing company in North America that has been building a new facility in Mexico to benefit from North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and low production cost. The company utilized a value stream mapping to finalize its new facility’s manufacturing process design, and divided the process into several groups, some of which wer...
