State-of-the-Art Traffic Analyses

摘要

In earlier days, traffic analyses for the design of elevator groups had been based on simple assumptions: Morning up-peak traffic conditions and conventional dispatching systems. It is known that today both assumptions must be revisited: Analyses must also cope e.g. with lunch time traffic conditions and with destination control systems. Therefore, simulation methods are now widely used. However, there are various ways how simulations can be applied, which can be confusing. We discuss differences of various approaches and present a method for traffic analyses based on simulations which is as simple and reliable as possible.
