The Optimization of Arriving and Departing Time of Trains in Urban Rail Transit Based on Passenger Transfer

Abstract:

In this paper, there is a study on the effect of the lack of coordination between trains in the network, such as waiting aggravation, travel time extension. Through the study of the practical operation process and passenger transfer characteristics of urban rail transit, according to the types of line crossing, taking the minimized waiting time of all transfer passengers in station as the object function, the optimization model was designed for three lines with two intersections, solve the model by using the Lingo, and transfer stations, Xidan and Dongdan station, from lines No.1 No.4 and No.5 of Beijing Subway Network are chosen as an example to validate its rationality and availability. The result shows that the model is of important significance to reduce the travel time for transfer passengers.
