Railway infrastructure saturation using Constraint Programming approach
Railway infrastructure managers now have to deal with the new operators' requests for capacity. Planning the new construction or reconstruction of infrastructures must be carried out very carefully due to the huge investment needed. This paper studies a Constraint Programming (CP) model of the 'Railway Infrastructure Saturation Problem" (RISP). The model applies to assess the capacity of a junc...
متن کاملModel for Railway Infrastructure Management Organization
The provision of appropriate quality rail services has an important role in terms of railway infrastructure: quality of infrastructure maintenance, regulation of railway traffic, line capacity, speed, safety, train station organization, the allowable lines load and other infrastructure parameters. The analysis of experiences in transforming the railway systems points to the conclusion that ther...
متن کاملRailway Infrastructure: Pricing and Investment
This paper analyses the requirements for rail infrastructure charging, laid down in directive 2001/14/EC. It calls for marginal cost pricing and allows for mark-ups. Four standard pricing principles are analyzed on their suitability for track charging. It is found that no charging system proves superior and that the EC legislation is in line with economic theory. Scrutinizing the tariff systems...
متن کاملCost-Effectiveness of Railway Infrastructure Renewal Maintenance
U.S. Class I railways maintain their infrastructure through a mix of ordinary maintenance and periodic renewal of infrastructure components. Different railways use different proportions of ordinary maintenance and periodic renewal with little consensus as to the best combination. Furthermore, the cost-effectiveness of emphasizing one method over the other has not been analyzed using empirical d...
متن کاملOntology-based Railway Infrastructure Verification - Planning Benefits
Planning new railway infrastructures is a complex process. We present an approach where the formalization of expert knowledge regarding the railway domain is motivated in order to improve the planning process. By applying ontologies as a representation of railway related knowledge we are able to make the coherencies of infrastructural elements explicit. Furthermore the integration of an ontolog...
