Up-peak round trip time: highest reversal floor · case 05
The highest reversal floor is one floor low or high.
Case contract
Up-peak analysis with N floors above the lobby, P = 0.8*capacity passengers per trip (fractional), probable stops S = N(1-(1-1/N)^P), highest reversal floor H = N - sum_{i=1}^{N-1}(i/N)^P, RTT = 2*H*tv + (S+1)*ts + 2*P*tp, interval = RTT/cars and 5-minute handling capacity HC5 = 300*P*cars/RTT. Values rounded to 2 decimals.
Why this case matters
Lift group controllers make these decisions many times per minute; a wrong answer strands passengers, wastes trips or overrides a safety rule.
