Modernization of the infrastructure of a river station of the north-south transport corridor using the simulation method

Abstract

The paper presents the main fragments of the simulation model of a river port on the water section of the international transport corridor passing through the territory of the Russian Federation. The necessity of modernization and improvement of the infrastructure has been substantiated, the factors influencing the carrying capacity of the water corridor have been identified. A study of the river station in the city of Cheboksary in Republic of Chuvashia (Russia) was carried out and its main objects were presented. The rules for the interaction of the objects being the basis of the simulation model, have been established. The resulting model allows generating scenarios for predicting changes in the characteristics of a river station, ship schedules, assessing the quality of the implementation of processes and the level of managerial decision-making.
