Dynamic High Speed Railway Transport Capacity Adjustment Strategy and Practices Coping with Passenger Flow Fluctuation
The expansion of the high speed railway(HSR)network and the rise in the quantity of Electric Multiple Unit(EMU)vehicles have led to the transformation of China's HSR passenger flow into an increasingly complex pattern of changes.To flexibly,promptly,and accurately address varying passenger flow demands at different periods,based on the current approach of transport capacity allocation,an study was conducted to reveal the patterns of passenger flow fluctuations during off-peak and peak periods,encompassing seasonal and national statutory holidays.Subsequently,the principles,processes,resources,and measures pertaining to transport capacity adjustments across passenger transport were analyzed.Finally,based on the patterns of passenger flow fluctuations in various scenarios and periods,a dynamic adjustment strategy was proposed.This strategy includes"three-batch"capacity adjustment to meet passenger flow demands in the off-peak period and"cascade release"capacity adjustment in the peak period.The strategy for dynamic adjustment of HSR transport capacity can meet the fluctuating and complex passenger flow demands in the context of marketization,providing a reference for further improving the strategy for precise allocation of railway transport capacity in composite scenarios.
