Summary

METHODS

The problem under consideration is combinatorial-optimization, the nature of which is due to the non-linearity and integer nature of a number of components of the objective function and constraints. The first direction involves the calculation of effective (efficiently implemented) distribution options and the organization of transport flows for the future, followed by the definition of investments in infrastructure and rolling stock, with a partial adjustment of individual options to reduce the total amount of construction and operation costs. Optimization calculations for the specialization of the railway network lines using the method [5] should provide for the direct account of construction costs - instead of penalties for exceeding the restrictions for infrastructure objects with development opportunities, values are entered K*1(X, N, Y) and K*2(X, N, Y). A foreseeable number of effective alternatives is generated, for which it is possible to find a compromise operation using the method [6], which contains the original interactive algorithm for eliminating unacceptable solutions
