SBN Railway traffic simulation by means of a Petri Net model G.Malavasi, S. Ricci University of Rome La Sapienza - DTS - Transport Area, taly Abstract The paper explains the main results of an ongoing research concerning the development of a network model, including lines and stations, capable to simulate the traffic operations on the basis of the actions performed by the signalling components; this approach allows a high flexibility and capability to manage the traffic command and control operation. The model feasibility has been demonstrated and a global network model has been built up. t includes: i) a generalised station model to be applied to any lay-out and interlocking system; ii) a generalised line model to be applied for any signalling system. The represented network may be analysed with the simulation of different timetables without traffic density constraints. The main outputs of the model application are: i) the global rate of occupation for line and station components (track circuits, points, etc.); ii) the traffic development representation with the underlying of the critical situation (conflicts among trains). The model has been successfully tested on a network including a line section equipped with a codified currents automatic block signalling system and two stations. 1 ntroduction and objectives From the increasing attention towards the railway interoperability and safety arise the need of models capable to support the decision processes concerning the system upgrade, particularly for the performances of the signalling in terms of canying capacity and safety.

SBN Computers in Railways V The successful work carried out in the past on the application of the Petri Net formal method for the simuhtion of the station interlocking system (Malavasi [l], Malavasi [2]) suggested to investigate the possibility to apply the same method to the more general problem of traffic simulation. 2 Methodological approach The development of a global network model includes the integration of: 0 a generalised station model to be applied to any lay-out and interlocking system; 0 a generalised line model to be applied for any signalling system; a timetable model capable to reproduce the traffic perturbations. The modularity performance of the Petri Net modelling tool (Peterson [3]) allows the easy integration of the models with a simple chaining of their elementary modules (e.g. track circuits, block sections and related signals); the resulting network model allows the simulation of different timetables without traffic density constraints. 3 Station model The Petri net station model includes typically sets of nodes corresponding to various objects categories: track circuits, switches, signals, etc. linked by transitions on which the token run at defined conditions; on this basis the train movement simulation including route selection, occupation and release results strongly simplified. n Figure 1 a flow-chart of check, recording and interlocking procedures within the station model is shown. ROUTE BELECTCN Figure 1 : Sequentially performed check, recording and interlocking procedures n Figure 2 the Petri net dedicated to reproduce the track circuit recording check procedure is shown as a sample.

The Petri net adopted for the modelling of the timetable is shown in figure 4.

SBN Computers in Railways V n the timetable module the actual train arrival time is determined by the temporisation of the transitions (A1 and A2) calculated on stochastic basis. Starting from this time the following procedures included in the station lay-out and the common modules are activated: i) route set up; ii) train access; iii) track circuit occupation. 4 Linemodel Obviously the Petri net line model includes sets of nodes corresponding to objects categories only partially different from station: block sections, signals, etc. linked each other. For the automatic block systems, both at fixed (D.C.) or codified (A.C.) current, the core process is the modification of block system code depending upon occupation and release of the block sections. t may be simply modelled as showed in figure 5. 4 TRACK CRCUT OCCUPATON NPUT TO CANCELLATON N CODE ABSENCE AlTRlBUTlCN TO TRACK CRCUT (; yo 0 NPUTTO THE PREVOUS TRACK ClRCUil TRAN DRECTON DENTFCATON AND RELATED SELECTON OF TRANSTON TOWARDS PREVOUS TRACK CRCUT CRCUT CONCERNED THE FRSTOF TRACK YET-) TO THE PREVOUS A BLOCK SECTON 7 TRACK CRCUT Figure 5: Flow-chart of block system code modification process n Figure 6 the Petri net dedicated to reproduce the transmission of code 75 within the line block system (with codified current) is shown as a sample.

SBN Computers in Railways V global rate of occupation for components (track circuits, points, etc.); traffic representation with underlying of the critical situations (conflicts among trains). 6 Model application The model has been successfully tested on a network including a line section equipped with a codified currents automatic block system and the two extreme stations (Figure 7); the simulated timetable is represented in the same figure. The results of the application are reported in the time occupation diagram (Giuliani [4]) of the line sections (Figure 8) and one of the two stations tracks (Figure 9). + t [min] Figure 7: Schematic lay-out of simulated network and timetable 7 Conclusions The Petri net tool is particularly suitable for the simulation of railway traffic operation due to the capability to take into account the system states changing caused by train movement by means of the progressive transitions activation. The station model requires a high codification effort for the common framework but the modular structure allows a simple extension to various station lay-outs; this approach is also fully consistent with logic safety checking criteria of electronic interlocking systems (Gottschalk [5], Ricci [6]).
