The planning of attractive and cost efficient public transport schedules, ie, timetables and
corresponding vehicle schedules is a highly complex optimization process involving many …

Train timetabling, platforming, and network maintenance scheduling are three highly
interdependent problems that are crucial in the planning of railway operations, and each is …

As an effective transport mode to reduce the impact of urban mobility with great capacity and
low pollution, metro systems have received rapid development all over the world in recent …

In complex socio-technical systems there is an influence of safe unwanted events on the
occurrence of accidents. It is like domino bricks. Therefore, it is not only the recovery from …

The main aim of this study was to develop a method for assessing the level of robustness of
timetabled transport performance in rail transport. When the railway lines are supplied by …

Unpredictable disturbances that occur when the train is running often make the actual
timetable deviate from the planned timetable and deteriorate service quality for passengers …

Railway systems and urban rail transit serve as transportation backbones in many countries.
Optimized train operation plans and control decisions are vital for providing better freight …

Due to infrastructure constraints in railway transportation system, each disruption can have a
very important influence on the system operation. Therefore, it is important to evaluate …

This paper defines and solves a mathematical model for finding robust periodic timetables
by proposing an extension of the Periodic Event Scheduling Problem (PESP). In order to …

The traffic schedule is planned to keep distances between trains which allow a conflict-free
train operation. For this reason the load of the power supply system is distributed in time. In …
