DELAY MODEL FOR MODERN EXPRESS TRAINS

VERSPAETUNGSMODELLE FUER DEN MODERNEN SCHNELLBAHNBETRIEB

The author, after presenting a set of mathematical models for calculating and forecasting delay times, deduces on the basis of probability methods, a set of practical formulae which give a more or less accurate description of the behaviour of systems when operating incidents occur. This theoretical approach is intended to serve as an aid in assessing the quality of guided transport system operation.
