Based on the discrete time method,an effective movement control model is designed for a group of highspeedtrains on a rail network.The purpose of the model is to investigate the specific traffic characteristics of high-speedtrains under the interruption of stochastic irregular events.In the model,the high-speed rail traffic system is supposedto be equipped with the moving-block signalling system to guarantee maximum traversing capacity of the railway.Tokeep the safety of trains’ movements,some operational strategies are proposed to control the movements of trains inthe model,including traction operation,braking operation,and entering-station operation.The numerical simulationsshow that the designed model can well describe the movements of high-speed trains on the rail network.The researchresults can provide the useful information not only for investigating the propagation features of relevant delays underthe irregular disturbance but also for rerouting and rescheduling trains on the rail network.
