Simulation of Railroad Hump Yard Activities With Emphasis on the Configuration of the Classification Yard
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe railroad transportation system is composed of three main components of elements: the roadway of track, the vehicle, and the terminal. The "batch" nature of railroad transport increases the relative importance of the terminal as a key in the system. The railroad classification yard, the most important of the various terminal types, has been neglected from the standpoint of planning and development.
