Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods for determining delay cost metrics in a probabilistic operational simulation for vehicles are provided. One aspect provides a computing system comprising one or more processing devices configured to execute a probabilistic operational simulation that simulates an operational environment comprising a plurality of vehicles. Multiple operational models are integrated into the probabilistic operational simulation for interaction and comprise a route model, a preparation model, a delay model, and a delay cost model. Vehicle operational data is used to run a scenario in the probabilistic operational simulation comprising operating the vehicles over a timeframe. The delay model computes delay times occurring over the timeframe, with the delay times provided to the delay cost model to compute and output delay cost metrics over the timeframe.
