Simulation Model of the Bus Stop
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2010, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
On the basis of the research conducted at the bus stops in Krakow and Warsaw, the movement processes, related with functioning of a bus stop have been identified. As a result, the simulation model imitating its functioning has been formulated and verified. The stop has been analyzed as a system, in which the input flow comprises of municipal bus transport, whereas the service time corresponds the dwell time. The formulas for time losses incurred due to queuing to reach the boarding and alighting zones have been derived, constituting a basis for operative capacity estimation of a bus stop and specifying the selection determinants for the number of boarding and alighting zones in regards to traffic intensity as well as boarding and alighting time.

SERVICE LEVEL IN MODEL OF INVENTORY LOCATION WITH STOCHASTIC DEMAND
In this paper we consider the influence of the safety factor on the decision of the inventory location. This decision is done based on the model which centralizes or decentralizes the safety stock. In this model we have...
