الگوریتم ترکیبی هیدرولیکی برای تجزیه و تحلیل مسئله برنامه ریزی سفر قطار مسافر و حمل بار

We study the joint problem of scheduling passenger and freight trains for complex railway networks, where the objective is to minimize the tardiness of passenger trains at station stops and the delay of freight trains. We model the problem as a mixed integer program and propose a two-step decomposition heuristic to solve the problem. The heuristic first vertically decomposes the train schedules into a passenger train scheduling phase and then a freight train scheduling phase. In the freight train scheduling phase, we use a train-based decomposition to iteratively schedule each freight train. Experimental results show the efficiency and quality of the proposed heuristic algorithm on real world size problems.
