A Mathematical Framework for Expanding a Railway’s Theoretical Capacity
نویسنده
چکیده
Analytical techniques for measuring and planning railway capacity expansion activities have been considered in this article. A preliminary mathematical framework involving track duplication and section sub divisions is proposed for this task. In railways, these features have a great effect on network performance and for this reason they have been considered. Additional motivations have also arisen from the limitations of prior models that have not included them. Keywords—Capacity analysis, capacity expansion, railways.

The object of the present paper is to study temperature distribution and thermal stresses of a functionally graded thick hollow cylinder with temperature dependent material properties. All the material properties except Poisson’s ratio are assumed to be dependent on temperature. The nonlinear heat conduction with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity is reduced t...
متن کاملDoctoral Thesis Proposal: Cooperative Task Processing
This work describes the dynamical behavior of agents that can each share the task-processing burden of their immediate neighbors. The work is influenced by studies of the evolution of cooperation and extends existing work in the design of resource allocation strategies on cooperative agents. A framework for shared task processing on a network is presented, and theoretical results show sufficien...
