Hello,

I would like to simulate the route of a local bus including all stations and entering/quitting passengers at each station. How can I realize the wating time at each station? The bus (container atom) is not flexible enough, also the stations (assembler atom) I can not declare cycletime of the container.
Have you got any proposals regarding my problem. I would be glad to receive any help.
Thanks.

Hello!

Attached you can find a small example model I have made in which I try to simulate a bus passing 2 stations.

- Busses are modelled by containers;
- Travel time between stations is modelled by multi-servers;
- Stations are modelled by assemblers;
- Passengers getting into the bus is modelled by a server.

Maybe this gives you some ideas about how to connect the functionality of different atoms to suit your model description. Please note that the atoms are all with default values. For example you could change the speed of passengers getting into the bus, the number of passengers per bus or the travel time between the stations. There are some other topics about the assembler on the community as well, so maybe you can have a look at these topics for more information.

Good luck!

Kind regards,

Marvin
