Abstract
For subway systems, since the passenger demands frequently change in daily operation hours, the train timetable and speed profile could be correspondingly adjusted for lowering the net energy consumption. Generally speaking, for operation hours with low passenger demand, we could increase the cycle time to reduce traction energy consumption. Once the headway and cycle time at the next cycle is changed according to the predicated passenger demand, we need to adjust the timetable and speed profile accordingly.
