Research on passenger flow heat evaluation of urban rail transit network
To evaluate the rapid recovery of passenger flow of urban rail transit network in the new era,12 evaluation indices were selected from four aspects,namely basic passenger flow,basic network,travel characteristics,as well as transport capacity and capacity to thoroughly study the passenger flow heat of the Beijing urban rail transit network.By using the entropy weight TOPSIS and cluster analysis method,the passenger flow heat of 15 lines in Beijing rail transit network was evaluated and classified.The research results show that line 10,line 1-Batong line,line 6,and line 5,as large loop lines or through lines,belong to the hot passenger flow lines.Except for line 11,other lines belong to the medium hot passenger flow lines,showing obvious regional passenger flow characteristics.Based on these findings,the following is suggested the development of urban rail transit in Beijing region shall focus more on the middle and low heat areas;the operating enterprise may reasonably allocate human and material resources according to different passenger flow heat;front line departments may take measures in advance to cope with the impact of passenger flow in line with the forecast of passenger flow heat.
