  2. 1. Simulation Studies for Improved Efficiency in Road and Rail Freight Transports

    Author : Ingrid Johansson; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Behzad Kordnejad; Carl-William Palmqvist; C. Tyler Dick; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heavy-duty vehicle platooning; road traffic simulation; intelligent transport systems; optimal control; longitudinal cruise control; fuel economy; railway traffic simulation; microscopic simulation; macroscopic simulation; freight trains; early departures; capacity; railway stations; strategic planning; timetable compression; UIC Code 406; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The demand for road and rail freight transport continues to grow with the expanding economy, while the climate crisis requires reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, tools and solutions for reducing fossil fuel use and enabling more efficient use of infrastructure are needed. READ MORE

  4. 2. Timetable Analysis based on Social Cost and Simulation

    Author : Jennifer Warg; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Carl-William Palmqvist; Paola Pellegrini; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railway capacity allocation; timetable analysis; social costs; microscopic railway simulation; macroscopic railway simulation; passengers; timetable performance; early departing freight trains; Järnvägskapacitet; tidtabellsanalys; sociala kostnader; mikroskopisk järnvägssimulering; makroskopisk järnvägssimulering; resande; tidtabellseffektivitet; tidiga godståg; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The timetable is essential for railway traffic. Its design affects rail operations – and by extension all operators, passengers, and freight clients. International practice for capacity allocation varies and there is no common algorithm for designing and evaluating timetable changes. READ MORE

  5. 3. Applying Data Analytics to Freight Train Delays in Shunting Yards

    Author : Niloofar Minbashi; Markus Bohlin; Behzad Kordnejad; Carl-William Palmqvist; C. Tyler Dick; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shunting yards; delay prediction; congestion; delay probability distributions; temporal delay distributions; Rangergodsbangårdarna; förseningsprediktion; trängsel; fördröjning av sannolikhetsdistributioner; tidsfördröjningsdistributioner; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The European Commission has foreseen a modal share of 30% by 2030 for rail freight transport. To achieve this increase in the modal share, enhanced reliability of rail freight services is required. Optimal functioning of shunting yards is one of the areas that can improve this reliability.

  6. 4. Application of Predictive Analytics for Shunting Yard Delays

    Author : Niloofar Minbashi; Markus Bohlin; Behzad Kordnejad; Carl-William Palmqvist; Paola Pellegrini; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shunting yards; train delays; machine learning; simulation; freight transport; Godsbangårdar; tåg förseningar; maskininlärning; simulering; godstransport; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : Increasing the modal share of rail freight transport is one of the main ways to achieve carbon neutrality in Europe. The perceived low reliability and predictability of rail freight services is one of the main challenges to overcome in reaching this target. READ MORE
