A fuzzy optimization model based on improved symmetric tolerance approach is introduced, which allows for rescheduling high-speed railway timetable under unexpected interferences. The model nests different parameters of the soft constraints with uncertainty margin to describe their importance to the optimization purpose and treats the objective in the same manner. Thus a new optimal instrument is expected to achieve a new timetable subject to little slack of constraints. The section between Nanjing and Shanghai, which is the busiest, of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail line in China is used as the simulated measurement. The fuzzy optimization model provides an accurate approximation on train running time and headway time, and hence the results suggest that the number of seriously impacted trains and total delay time can be reduced significantly subject to little cost and risk.

High-speed railway passenger train operation plan is an important basis to ensure the quality of transportation services. With construction and development of the country's high-speed railway, design and evaluation of railway passenger train plan theory need to be improved and perfected. On the basis of reading and studying a large amount of the references, this paper summarizes the domestic and overseas high-speed running railway operation modes, the high speed railway train operation programs design and other aspects. Besides, according to the related problems and shortcomings, this paper illustrates the meanings and necessities of analyzing the high-speed railway passenger train program.

Differential pricing of trains with different departure times caters to the taste heterogeneity of the time-dependent (departure time) demand and then improves the ticket revenue of railway enterprises. This paper studies optimal differential pricing for intercity high-speed railway services. The distribution features of the passenger demand regarding departure times are analyzed, and the time-dependent demand is formulated; a passenger assignment method considering departure periods and capacity constraints is constructed to evaluate the prices by simulating the ticket-booking process. Based on these, an optimization model is constructed with the aim of maximizing the ticket revenue and the decision variables for pricing train legs. A modified direct search simulated annealing algorithm is designed to solve the optimization model, and three random generation methods of new solutions are developed to search the solution space efficiently. Experimental analysis containing dozens of trains is performed on Wuhan-Shenzhen high-speed railway in China, and price solutions with different elastic demand coefficients ( ϕ ) are compared. The following results are found: (i) the optimization algorithm converges stably and efficiently and (ii) differentiation is shown in the price solutions, and the optimized ticket revenue is influenced greatly by ϕ , increasing by 7%–21%.

This paper studies the multistage pricing and seat allocation problems for multiple train services in a high-speed railway (HSR) with multiple origins and destinations (ODs). Taking the maximum total revenue of all trains as the objective function, a joint optimization model of multistage pricing and seat allocation is established. The actual operation constraints, including train seat capacity constraints, price time constraints in each period, and price space constraints among products, are fully considered. We reformulate the optimization model as a bilevel multifollower programming model in which the upper-level model solves the seat allocation problem for all trains serving multiple ODs in the whole booking horizon and the lower optimizes the pricing decisions for each train serving each OD in different decision periods. The upper and lower are a large-scale static seat allocation programming and many small-scale multistage dynamic pricing programming which can be solved independently, respectively. The solving difficulty can be significantly reduced by decomposing. Then, we design an effective solution method based on divide-and-conquer strategy. A real instance of the China’s Wuhan-Guangzhou high-speed railway is employed to validate the advantages of the proposed model and the solution method.

We consider the sensor networks hierarchical optimization problem in high-speed railway transport hub (HRTH). The sensor networks are optimized from three hierarchies which are key area sensors optimization, passenger line sensors optimization, and whole area sensors optimization. Case study on a specific HRTH in China showed that the hierarchical optimization method is effective to optimize the sensor networks for security monitoring in HRTH.
