railway infrastructure elements, simulation of traffic concept and traffic operation, simulation program OpenTrack, capacity of railway infrastructure, stability
Abstract:
Introduction to the characteristics of simulation tools, creation of a simulation model of railway infrastructure, verification of a specific operational concept on the given infrastructure, adaptation of the infrastructure model and modification to the infrastructure to allow the implementation of the proposed operational concept. Stability tests and evaluations. Evaluation of sensitivity of the operational concept to delays.
Objectives:
Student should be able to design systematic proposals of operational concepts and verify them using simulation tools, including the effect of delays. Student should also be able to formulate specific requirements on the infrastructure resulting from the proposed operational concept.
