Simulation Approach to Freight Train Classification Modelling Using Queueing System Subject to Two Types of Failures

Original language description

The paper deals with modelling the freight train classification process that is carried out in marshalling yards. The process is modelled with a finite single-server queue with a server subject to two classes of failures - non-preemptive failures and so-called catastrophes. The non-preemptive failures correspond to secondary shunting and we consider that they do not interrupt the service process (primary shunting of inbound freight trains); we consider that it is possible to finish the classification process of the inbound freight train before we begin secondary shunting. The catastrophes represent failures of the infrastructure of the marshalling yard that is necessary to carry out both primary and secondary shunting. Therefore we assume that the catastrophes interrupt both primary and secondary shunting and all the trains found in the system are flushed out. Moreover, no trains enter the system when the catastrophic failure is under repair. The paper describes a simulation model of the queueing system, the model is based on a coloured Petri net.
