Abstract:Preliminary communicationThe goal of the paper is to propose a measurement to quantify and improve the robustness of the train timetables at the design stage. The paper presents the modeling and application of an ex-ante robustness measure for single track railways, known as the Critical Robustness Measure (CRM). Efficiency of the CRM is demonstrated by comparing the technique with the available ex-ante robustness measures, e.g., the number of trains per hour per section, the total amount of runtime margin for… Show more
