Variable symbolsThe train in the network (Inputs)
The riding scheme
Required time for passenger volume of train p that is transported by scheme q
Transfer time for passenger volume of train p that is transported by scheme q
Travel distance of train p (Inputs)
is fixed number of passengers of train p (Inputs)
All the passenger volume through the train p transport (Inputs)
Passenger volume of train in the section
The train is included in the scheme q when , otherwise
Intermediate variable. Train p which is included in scheme q will stop in station s.
Passenger volume in the section k of train which is included in scheme q
The origin or destination of train includes station s when (Inputs)
lqThe scheme is an independent scheme when lq = 1, otherwise lq = 0. (Inputs)
ypqThe passenger volume of train p can be transported by scheme q when ypq = 1, otherwise ypq = 0. (Inputs)
