    • Constructor Detail

      • DemandPattern

        public DemandPattern​(FrequencyVector demandVector,
                             TimeVector timeVector,
                             Interpolation interpolation)
        Constructor.
        Parameters:
        demandVector - FrequencyVector; demand vector
        timeVector - TimeVector; time vector
        interpolation - Interpolation; interpolation
    • Method Detail

      • getDemandVector

        public final FrequencyVector getDemandVector()
        Returns the demand vector.
        Returns:
        FrequencyVector; returns the demand vector
      • getTimeVector

        public final TimeVector getTimeVector()
        Returns the time vector.
        Returns:
        TimeVector; returns the time vector
      • getInterpolation

        public final Interpolation getInterpolation()
        Returns the interpolation.
        Returns:
        Interpolation; returns the interpolation
      • getFrequency

        public Frequency getFrequency​(Time time,
                                      boolean sliceStart)
        Returns the demand at given time, which may be the sum of child objects. The input sliceStart is used to resolve the value at a time slice boundary in case of a stepwise (discontinuous) demand pattern. If sliceStart = true and time is a slice boundary, the demand value for after the slice boundary should be returned. In that case, the caller is processing a time slice after time, hence it's the slice start. If sliceStart = false the demand value of before the slice boundary should be returned. For continuous demand patterns, sliceStart can be ignored.
        Specified by:
        getFrequency in interface Arrivals
        Parameters:
        time - Time; simulation time
        sliceStart - boolean; whether the time is at the start of an arbitrary time slice
        Returns:
        Frequency; returns the total demand for branching nodes, or the demand at a leaf node, at the given time
      • nextTimeSlice

        public Time nextTimeSlice​(Time time)
        Returns the start time of the next time slice after the given time or null if no such slice exists. The next time slice starts as soon as the current slice ends, where each slice has it's own linear (or constant) demand. Thus, any change of slope in the demand pattern initiates a new slice. If time is equal to a time slice boundary, the next value should be returned.
        Specified by:
        nextTimeSlice in interface Arrivals
        Parameters:
        time - Time; time after which the first slice start time is requested
        Returns:
        start time of the next time slice after the given time or null if no such slice exists
