Explanations of variables in Equations 1 and 2 (1/2)
| Variable | Explanation | Equation/comment |
|---|---|---|
| C pi-i | Preventive intervention costs | |
| C pi-tt | Travel time costs due to preventive interventions | |
| C pi-a | Accident costs due to preventive interventions | 0 |
| R f-i | Corrective intervention risks (i.e. probability of failure multiplied by the costs of corrective interventions) | |
| R f-tt | Travel time risks (i.e. probability of failure multiplied the additional travel time costs) | |
| R f-a | Accident risks (i.e. probability of failure multiplied by the conditional probability of accident given a failure and the number of people on the train multiplied by the accident risks conditional on a failure) | |
| att | Additional travel time per train | 20 min/d – assumed to be constant for all interventions |
| e ci-o | Extent of object o in state s to have a corrective intervention | Calculated using transition probabilities in Tables 10 and 11 and the strategies in Table 14 |
| Extent of object o in state s to have a preventive intervention | Calculated using transition probabilities in Table 10 and the strategies in Table 8 |
