Abstract
The paper considers actual technical and technological problems in the development of the Eastern polygon of the Russian railway network. The purpose of the study is to develop a methodology and software tools that ensure the search for effective solutions for given resource and logistical constraints. Methods of simulation modeling, distribution of flows on networks and graphs are used. The result of the study is a hybrid set of model calculations.
Highlights
The integrated investment project “Modernization of the Railway Infrastructure of the Baikal-Amur Mainline and Trans-Siberian Railway with the Development of Throughput and Carrying Capacities” is among high-priority projects aimed at developing the Russian transport system
Volumes of goods shipped from the major mineral deposits on the Eastern polygon are expected to increase from 58.1 million tonnes in 2012 to 124.9 million tonnes in 2020 and to 184.7 million tonnes in 2024
The purpose of the study is to develop a methodology, algorithms and software tools that ensure the search for effective solutions for given resource and time constraints in delivery of goods and empty cars
Summary
The integrated investment project “Modernization of the Railway Infrastructure of the Baikal-Amur Mainline and Trans-Siberian Railway with the Development of Throughput and Carrying Capacities” is among high-priority projects aimed at developing the Russian transport system. The scale and complexity of the problems to be solved by the project require a significant scientific and methodological support, new algorithms and software for calculating effective parameters, as well as a database for decision-making. Limited investment resources and possibilities to construct and reconstruct the railway infrastructure to the extent and within the time frames as required under the integrated project. 2. The boundaries of the polygon within which investment activities are carried out do not coincide with the boundaries in which technological, commercial, socioeconomic and budgetary effects and losses should be calculated
