  1. 1. Railway traffic disturbance management

    Författare :Johanna Törnquist; []
    Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Railway traffic; Transportation; Re-scheduling; Disturbance management; Decision support systems;

    Sammanfattning : With the increasing traffic volumes in many railway networks and reports on capacity deficiencies that result in insufficient punctuality and reliability, the need for efficient disturbance management solutions becomes evident. This thesis focuses on solutions that aim to minimise the consequences of disturbances for the various stakeholders and specifically on methods for re-scheduling the traffic. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Data-driven models for railway track geometry maintenance

    Författare :Hamid Khajehei; Alireza Ahmadi; John Andrews; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Data-driven models; degradation; maintenance; tamping; track geometry; planning and scheduling; railway infrastructure; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : Railways are currently experiencing higher demands on safety, infrastructure performance, network capacity and service quality, etc. As a result, a high level of track availability, service quality and infrastructure robustness against unexpected events is required, at reduced cost, to meet the demands.

  4. 3. Computer-based decision support for handling uncertainty in railway traffic and transportation

    Författare :Johanna Törnquist; []
    Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Railway scheduling; train traffic; transportation; agent systems;

    Sammanfattning : Railway transportation has great potential, but interdependencies in the railway traffic make trains very sensitive to disturbances, which can bedifficult to handle. Using railway in an intermodal transport chain may complicate the interconnections with other modes if there is large uncertainty in the performance of the railway. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Contributions to dual subgradient optimization and maintenance scheduling

    Författare :Emil Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; Göteborgs universitet; Gothenburg University; []
    Nyckelord :Subgradient optimization; Lagrangian duality; convex programming; maintenance scheduling; integer optimization; Lagrangian duality;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis analyses two topics within the area of mathematical optimization; dual subgradient methods and maintenance optimization. The first two papers consider dual subgradient methods, and the third paper considers maintenance optimization. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Improving Timetable Robustness and Punctuality of Railway Traffic : A Combined Simulation-Optimization Approach for Nonperiodic Timetabling on Double-Track Lines

    Författare :Johan Högdahl; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Rob Goverde; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Timetabling; Train scheduling; Delay prediction; Punctuality; Railroad; Robustness; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Sammanfattning : To evaluate the robustness of a timetable against minor delays, it can be simulated. A natural question following a simulation is how the results can be used to improve the timetable, which has received limited attention in the literature. LÄS MER
