DEFINITION AND CALCULATION OF "REGULATION DIFFICULTIES" IN A RAILWAY NODE

DEFINIZIONE E COMPUTO DELLA "DIFFICOLTA DI REGOLAZIONE" DI UN NODO FERROVIARIO

Difficulties in regulating traffic in a railway node depend on the intensity and distribution of the traffic, the configuration of the node as a whole and of its elements, i.e., the characteristics that can be expressed as precise factors of a kinetic and probabilistic nature. The writer suggests using a suitable "index" for these difficulties and describes the procedure for the determination of this index.
