Dear resercher,

You can use Arena Simulation software to simulate technological processes . Please see in my profile - there are a papers when is used Arena simulation Tools for simulate train movements and the interval in metro, and also technological processes in metro stations.

AnyLogic railroad library could be the solution. But you should have basic JAVA programming skills, as the complex logic should be described in code. Read more here https://www.anylogic.com/rail-logistics/

I suggest you to use Arena Simulation software

You can use VISSIM Simulation Software. Read more here http://vision-traffic.ptvgroup.com/en-us/products/

I have made good experience with VISSIM and OpenTrack http://www.opentrack.ch/. However, since you seem to look for a macro or mesoscopic simulation VISSIM might be preferable.

I think VISSIM is a good application.

I think you can use VISSIM

you can use matlab to simulate moving trains and cars to verify your solutions.

You can use VISSIM

VISSIM is perfect, but download student version from PTV ,

the software it is not free

VISSIM could be an option, or if you have a JAVA coding background you could use AnyLogic. I used both in some projects and they’re both useful
