C205 THE STUDY OF HAT-CURVE STRAIGHTENING MODEL FOR HEADWAY ADJUSTMENT IN TAIPEI RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMS

抄録

This study, from the operator's viewpoint, combines the advantages of the headway adjustment models in both Middle and Heavy Rapid Transit systems in Taipei to develop a hat-curve straightening model to deal with the headway recovery problems when train delays occur. In the first step, a dynamic objective schedule is generated automatically for all service trains to catch up with. The model then updates the objective schedule step-by-step in order to gradually make the system recover from the delay situation.
