SIMULATION OF PASSENGER SERVICE SYSTEMS AT RAILWAY STATIONS
Abstract
The article studies structure of models, based on multiagent approach, abstract theory of transportation process, and transport systems, destined to simulate passenger service systems at stations and other transport structures. The author describes algorithms of searching for routes of movement and interaction between simulated passengers and services. The article contains some conclusions on parameters of convergence and stability of transport processes at rail structures under different service modes. The practical implementation is illustrated at example of three simulated types of passenger service in the ticket office (hall of large rail hub station) with 12 ticket desks and entering flow of passengers estimated at 90 pers./min (5400 pers./ hour). The models are simulated with the help of JAVA platform and Repast Simphony 2.0 environment. Following the simulation the author suggests approach of implementation of the results of simulation, suggesting measures aimed at quality enhancement and service acceleration for analyzed cases.
