Optimal Trajectory Planning and Train Scheduling for Urban Rail Transit Systems

Mixed-integer linear programming and pseudospectral methods are among the new methods proposed for single- and multi-train systems for the solution ofthe nonlinear trajectory planning problem which involves constraints such as varying speed restrictions and maximum traction/braking force. Signaling...
