Delay Analysis of Trains in Simulation System for Urban Rail Transit

Abstract:

The delay in trains generated by an incident often occurs in urban rail transit scheduling, and how to faster and more accurate estimates the delay time of the trains will determine whether or not the influence can provide at the top speed. In this paper, we analysis the working process of the primary delay and the secondary delay, present the methods to calculate the delay time of the trains in case of non-overtaking and overtaking. We adopted the simulation technique to analysis the delay time of the trains. These methods have been inserted the Urban Rail Transit Trains Operation Control Simulation System as an analytical tool.
