Cooperative Passenger Inflow Control in Urban Mass Transit Network with Constraint on Capacity of Station

In urban mass transit network, when passengers’ trip demands exceed capacity of transport, the numbers of passengers accumulating in the original or transfer stations always exceed the safety limitation of those stations. It is necessary to control passenger inflow of stations to assure the safety o...

description In urban mass transit network, when passengers’ trip demands exceed capacity of transport, the numbers of passengers accumulating in the original or transfer stations always exceed the safety limitation of those stations. It is necessary to control passenger inflow of stations to assure the safety of stations and the efficiency of passengers. We define time of delay (TD) to evaluate inflow control solutions, which is the sum of waiting time outside of stations caused by inflow control and extra waiting time on platform waiting for next coming train because of insufficient capacity of first coming train. We build a model about cooperative passenger inflow control in the whole network (CPICN) with constraint on capacity of station. The objective of CPICN is to minimize the average time of delay (ATD) and maximum time of delay (MTD). Particle swarm optimization for constrained optimization problem is used to find the optimal solution. The numeral experiments are carried out to prove the feasibility and efficiency of the model proposed in this paper.
