Influence Study between Arrival-Departure Lines Quantity and Station Capacity Based on Station Operation Simulation

Abstract

The relationship between the arrival-departure lines quantity and the station capacity is described. Station capacity is the guarantee of the network capacity. A study on the relationship between arrival-departure lines quantity and the station capacity can provide the theoretical guidance and a detailed reference database for constructing the passenger dedicated line network and station yard designing. In order to fully utilize the station facility, based on the research of the Station Operation Sim-system (SOS), with specific throat routing algorithm and optimized scheme of application of arrival-departure lines, the research simulated a saturation state of station operation and tracked detailed information of technological processes of trains during simulation. Then it studied the relationship between the arrival-departure lines quantity and the station capacity by simulating diversified station operation processes which have diverse arrival-departure lines quantity but similar throat layout. Finally, this paper presents the result of the research and analyzes the simulation results to give certain suggestion.
