Project for the development of the Eurasian transport framework in the countries of Central Asia

Abstract

The paper puts the importance of an international transport corridor for the Republic of Kazakhstan. Two directions of railway communication within the latitudinal Central Eurasian Corridor have been identified. A technique has been developed for applying simulation modeling to identify the bottlenecks on the way of railway flows. Bottlenecks include the intersections of vehicular and pedestrian traffic with rail traffic. In such places, conflicting flows are formed, which may be accompanied by a merger of individual flows. Using the methods of structural analysis, synthesis, system analysis and step-by-step inclusion (or exclusion), the input parameters of simulation models of objects and processes have been established for the case study of Aktobe city in the Republic of Kazakhstan. A graphical model of the behavior of groups of objects for conflicting flows in bottlenecks has been developed, being the basis for the simulation model.
