A multi-agent-based approach for the impacts analysis of passenger flow on platforms in metro stations considering train operations

A multi-agent-based approach for the impacts analysis of passenger flow on platforms in metro stations considering train operations

Impacts analysis of train operation on passenger flow in metro stations is an important and fundamental requirement to improve the operational efficiency and ensure passengers a high level of service. This study aims at large metro stations where thousands of passengers are moving, boarding or alig...
