Abstract

The paper simulated the carrying capacity in Nanjing-Shanghai district of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway by using OpenTrack software. Firstly, the paper modeled station topological structure and section topological structure of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and set the parameters for simulation. Secondly, the paper simulated on the condition of current train service frequency no less than the frequency in simulation while the headway was respectively 3 minutes, 4 minutes and 5 minutes. Finally, the paper analyzed the carrying capacity in Nanjing-Shanghai district by analyzing the simulation train diagram outputted by OpenTrack.
