DISTRIBUTION MODEL OF TRAIN PASSENGERS ALONG THE WHOLE ROUTE AND THROUGHOUT THE DAY

MODELE DE DISTRIBUTION DES VOYAGEURS DANS LES TRAINS

The author, who is employed by the Barcelona Transport Division of RENFE, has devised a calculation model enabling a theoretical train-running graph to be plotted which is adapted as closely as possible to predicted passenger requirements. The article firstly considers these requirements that is to say the spread of the intention to travel over the different sections of line and at different times of the day; it then refers to the criteria of choice between trains and concludes by showing how the timings and lengths of trains are established after the necessary final corrections have been made. An experimental verification of the model is made by taking the Barcelona-La Tour de Carol line as an example.
