Abstract

Abstract

Based on the actual operation of locks, this paper analyzed the individual waiting time and the integral waiting time at locks. It also probed into the relationship among the delay, the transit capability and the service level at locks. It is pointed out that at Shiqiao lock, fleets' daily waiting time distributes mainly in the range from 0 to 4 h, while motorized junks' daily waiting time distributes mainly in the range from 4 to 8 h, and the integral waiting time upwards gathers mainly in the range from 0 to 4 h, while the integral waiting time downwards gathers in the range from 0 to 8 h. The results indicate that the waiting time at locks has relation to the actual operation and the transit capability of locks, so the service level of locks can be evaluated from the view of waiting time combined with the actual transit capability of locks.
