Description:
This paper provides a highly integrated solution approach for rolling stock
planning problems in the context of intercity passenger traffic. The main
contributions are a generic hypergraph based mixed integer programming
model and an integrated algorithm for the considered rolling stock rotation
planning problem. The new developed approach is able to handle a very large
set of industrial railway requirements, such as vehicle composition,
maintenance constraints, infrastructure capacity, and regularity aspects.
By the integration of this large bundle of technical railway aspects, we show
that our approach has the power to produce implementable rolling stock
rotations for our industrial cooperation partner DB Fernverkehr.
This is the first time that the rolling stock rotations at DB Fernverkehr
could be optimized by an automated system utilizing advanced mathematical
programming techniques.
