  4. 2. Simulation of rail traffic : applications with timetable construction and delay modelling

    Author : Hans Sipilä; Bo-Lennart Nelldal; Anders Holst; Jan Ekman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis covers both applications where simulation is used on parts of the Swedish rail networks and running time calculations for future high-speed trains with top speed improvements on existing lines. Calculations are part of a subproject within the Green Train research program (Gröna tåget). READ MORE

  5. 3. Simulation of rail traffic : Methods for timetable construction,delay modeling and infrastructure evaluation
