Timetable-based capacity evaluations: analysis of a sub-urban single-track railway
2018
Num. 4
Summary - The paper presents an original approach to perform capacity assessments of railway systems, based on the automatic generation and evaluation of feasible timetables. This method relies on a... read all
Optimization facilities for bridges and track on high speed railways
2018
Num. 3
Summary - The paper describes the research results of the optimisation of “bridge-track-car” interaction for high- speed railway traffic (up to 400 km/h) in bridge zones. The developed criteria allow... read all
