An Extended Model for the Design of City Mass Transport Network
The presented article deals with the problem of the design of city mass transport lines network. The problem will be solved by means of linear programming methods. The fundamentals of this model consist in the known pieces of knowledge – the lines are identified through assigned vehicles. However, the results of original mathematical models often require further corrections for traffic realization. Therefore, mathematical modeling is not usually used to solve this problem. Nevertheless, there are many possible modifications of the models to solve such types of problems, the proposed models are universal. In addition, in many cases mathematical models enable us to find the optimal solution. The presented model has the following characteristics. The total costs for vehicle ride will be the optimization criterion. The proposed model will include the conditions which ensure better construction of timetable after the resolution of the model. Vehicles are allocated according to the acceptable intervals and these intervals are predetermined. The model will be formed for a company with a homogeneous vehicle fleet.
