Abstract EN
Transportation terminal is the key node in transport systems.
Efficient terminals can improve operation of passenger transportation networks, adjust the layout of public transportation networks, provide a passenger guidance system, and regulate the development of commercial forms, as well as optimize the assembly and distribution of modern logistic modes, among others.
This study aims to clarify the relationship between the function and the structure of transportation terminals and establish the function layout design.
The mapping mechanism of demand, function, and structure was analyzed, and a quantitative relationship between function and structure was obtained from a design perspective.
Passenger demand and terminal structure were decomposed into several demand units and structural elements following the principle of reverse engineering.
The relationship maps between these two kinds of elements were then analyzed.
Function-oriented concept layout model of transportation terminals was established using the previous method.
Thus, a technique in planning and design of transportation structures was proposed.
Meaningful results were obtained from the optimization of transportation terminal facilities, which guide the design of the functional layout of transportation terminals and improve the development of urban passenger transportation systems.
