Study on Train Timetables Generation for Taiwan High-Speed Rail System Using Optimization and Agent Technologies / 高速鐵路運輸之新世代行車控制系統研究

博士 / 國立中央大學 / 土木工程學系 / 102 / As more and more governments are planning or constructing high-speed rail (HSR) systems, the central control mechanism of such systems, i.e., train timetables, should be investigated more in order to cope with various disturbances due to a disaster. Several optimization-based approaches have been successfully utilized for generating stable and reliable train timetables; however, few researchers have considered train circulation issues, especially for HSR systems, even though it could be such a way to reschedule the timetable against disturbances. This research proposed a scheduling optimization model that has the capability to accommodate not only basic requirements but train circulation as well for Taiwan HSR system. The intelligent agent technology was integrated with the optimization model proposed, so that the communication between train drivers, the control center, and the depot managers can be formalized and managed. Actions that can be taken to mitigate the impact of a disaster can be predicted. With proper enhancement, the proposed model could be a good simulation tool to help predict the effect of disruptions on the timetable without doing real experiments.

Key words: Timetables; Trainset utilization; Timetable correction; Timetable fluctuation; Timetable crossover; Train headway; Auto train route setting; Notch; Optimization; Intelligent agents.
