Abstract: In daily operation, urban rail transit (URT) systems often experience disturbances that result in a partial reduction in transport capacity [partial disturbances (PDs)] rather than disturbances leading to a complete reduction ...

Abstract: In the daily operations of urban rail transit (URT) systems, line capacity sometimes is reduced, which worsens service performance. To measure the effects of line capacity reductions on URT system service performance in a ...

Abstract: The addition of new lines to an existing urban rail transit (URT) network sequentially helps improve its operation. However, only a few studies have improved URT networks by simultaneously optimizing the locations and ...

Abstract: To evaluate the travel reliability of an urban rail transit (URT) in normal operation, three travel reliability indicators are proposed from passengers’ travel. The connectivity reliability, travel time reliability, and ...
