The wider value of rural rail provision [PDF]
In the context of recent plans for public sector expenditure, the value for money provided by rural public transport is an important issue in Britain and elsewhere, and one aspect of this is the option and non-use value placed on public transport by ...

Passenger transmission and productiveness of transit lines with high loads [PDF]
Deterministic transit capacity analysis applies to planning, design and operational management of urban transit systems. The Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (1) and Vuchic (2, 3) enable transit performance to be quantified and assessed ...

Real-time control of metro train dynamics with minimization of train time-headway variance [PDF]
We present here a real-time control model for the train dynamics in a linear metro line system. The model describes the train dynamics taking into account average passenger arrival rates on platforms, including control laws for train dwell and run times, based on the feedback of the train dynamics. The model extends a recently developed Max-plus linear

Mind the Gap – Passenger Arrival Patterns in Multi-agent Simulations [PDF]
In most studies mathematical models are developed finding the expected waiting time to be a function of the headway. These models have in common that the proportion of passengers that arrive randomly at a public transport stop is less as headway in ...
