Due to the constant increase in travel demand, rail systems are more and more dense and service providers have the difficult task of planning a timetable which has to be robust and stable. Moreover, in order to increase customers??? satisfaction, it is necessary to provide sufficient transport capacity avoiding train and platform congestion and guaranteeing a good level of service quality. To reach this target, in this framework we provide an appropriate timetable evaluation which considers the dynamic effect of dwell time at station on the service in the case of metro networks.

Abstract
Due to the constant increase in travel demand, rail systems are more and more dense and service providers have the difficult task of planning a timetable which has to be robust and stable. Moreover, in order to increase customers??? satisfaction, it is necessary to provide sufficient transport capacity avoiding train and platform congestion and guaranteeing a good level of service quality. To reach this target, in this framework we provide an appropriate timetable evaluation which considers the dynamic effect of dwell time at station on the service in the case of metro networks.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
