Description
Summary:Public transport is of crucial importance for urban agglomerations - it is the only transport system that can satisfy the mobility of the population with acceptable quality at minimum cost with less negative impact on the environment. In the tasks of designing public transport, ensuring the capacity of the routes is of particular relevance. This problem does not have an unambiguous solution, and in the majority of research, possible excess of capacity of vehicles, as a rule, are ignored. The paper presents the developed mathematical model, which allows us to calculate the highest intensity passenger flow from the transport demand for a day of transport operation and on this basis to determine the necessary throughput capacity at the established limits of rolling stock capacity. An example of calculation of dependence of intensity and interval of movement on nominal capacity of rolling stock is given, in which an example of the performance of restrictions of the capacity of rolling stock is provided on a section of a route with passenger flow of the greatest capacity.
