Evaluating rail transit timetable using big passengers' data

作者:

Highlights:

• A time-driven microscopic simulation model to evaluate train timetable with big passengers' data is presented.

• The drawbacks of scheduled timetables by the analysis of the interaction between trains and passengers is assessed.

• The train load factors and the extra passengers' waiting times due to overcrowded vehicles are taken into account.

• A real rail transit line that involves 634 trains and more than 1 million passenger trips per day is examined.
