Abstract:Thanks to a direct operation on random variables and a suitable class of cumulative distribution functions, the network-wide computation of delay propagation in railway networks is enabled in short computation times. On this basis, new work procedures to evaluate timetable robustness during the annual capacity allocation phase, to assess the interactions between temporary speed restrictions and to forecast the quality of operations have been established at European infrastructure managers. In their practical a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
