Optimal Design of Timetables to Maximize Schedule Reliability & Minimize Energy Consumption, Rolling Stock and Crew Deployment

We have developed a non-linear multi-objective model for optimal design of railway timetables. The objectives of the model are to maximize schedule reliability and minimize energy consumption, rolling stock and crew deployment. Metrics have been derived for each of these objectives. AHP is used to determine the relative weights of the objectives, while GCA & TOPSIS techniques are used for optimization, which is demonstrated on a test case
