Field Details

CONSTANT

static final ArrivalsHeadwayGenerator.HeadwayDistribution CONSTANT

Constant headway.

EXPONENTIAL

static final ArrivalsHeadwayGenerator.HeadwayDistribution EXPONENTIAL

Exponential headway distribution.

UNIFORM

static final ArrivalsHeadwayGenerator.HeadwayDistribution UNIFORM

Uniform headway distribution.

TRIANGULAR

static final ArrivalsHeadwayGenerator.HeadwayDistribution TRIANGULAR

Triangular headway distribution.

TRI_EXP

static final ArrivalsHeadwayGenerator.HeadwayDistribution TRI_EXP

Method Details

draw

double draw(nl.tudelft.simulation.jstats.streams.StreamInterface randomStream)

Draws a randomized headway factor. The average value returned is always 1.0. The returned value is applied on the demand pattern by (reversed) integration to derive actual headways.

Parameters:

randomStream - random number stream

Returns:

randomized headway factor
