| Abstract: | The authors consider the problem of determining the capacity of a planned railway infrastructure layout under uncertainties. In order to address the long-term nature of the problem, in which the exact demand of service is unknown, they develop a "timetable"-free approach to avoid the specification of a particular timetable. They consider a generic infraelement that allows a concise representation of many different combinations of infrastructure, safety systems and traffic regimes, such as mixed double and single track lines, and train operations on partly overlapping routes at station yards. The authors translate the capacity assessment problem for such a generic assessment for the newly built high-speed railway line in The Netherlands. |
