  3. 2. Station Capacity and Platform Allocation – A Test Case at Linköping Central Station

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Erik Johansson; Hampus Nilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : station capacity; platform allocation; discrete simulation; event-based simulation; railway station; Arena;

    Abstract : Different paths for trains throughout a railway system are more or less convenient, where intersecting train paths require a safety margin in time between different trains to reduce the risks of accidents. Intersecting train paths are just as much of a challenge on a railway station, especially when multiple trains are entering the station close in time. READ MORE
