摘要：With an accurate description of urban rail transit station-front turning-back process, this paper establishes two cellular automaton models for two typical station-front turning-back modes,there are station-front single-line turning-back mode and station-front double-line turning-back mode. In order to simulate train turning-back accurately, the models set cell updated rules for different rail parts, besides that line identification .direction identification and signal identification are formulated to solve several problems,such as lane changing,steering and paths confliction preventing. Using computer programming to simulate the trainoperation process with the models proposed, analyzing speed-location and time-location diagrams of train operating,we find that the simulation results are exactly the same as the actual train turn-back processes,at the same time comparing the results of turning-back capacity worked out by simulating methods with the traditional graphic method,the error is only 2.4% ,it shows that the simulating models proposed can accurately simulate train turning-back operating process,it can be applied to train turning-back simulation.%在对城市轨道交通中列车站前折返过程准确描述的基础上,建立了2种典型站前折返模式的元胞自动机模型,即站前单渡线折返仿真模型和站前双渡线折返仿真模型.为准确模拟列车的折返过程,模型设定了列车在不同轨道部分的元胞更新规则,在此基础上还添加了线路标识、方向标识和信号标识等来实现列车的换道、转向和防止进路冲突等问题.采用计算机编程,运用已建立的模型来模拟列车的运行过程,对列车运行过程的速度-位置图和时间-位置图的分析发现,模型的模拟结果与实际列车的折返过程完全相同,同时采用仿真方法计算的折返站折返能力与传统图解法计算的结果误差仅为2.4％,由此说明所建立的模型能够准确模拟实际列车的站前折返过程,可以应用于对列车的折返仿真.
