Abstract

Highlights: [•] An optimization method is developed to improve the operations of metro rail system. [•] It gives quantitative analysis on net energy consumption. [•] It optimizes the scheduling and speed control to minimize the energy consumption. [•] It reduces the net energy consumption of Beijing Metro Yizhuang Line around 25%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
