Chart6 schedule when the campsite set is for 2 trip types
As one can see, the ratio of the two trip types can also be any number differing from

shown in the above example. To achieve this we only need to replace the (7,7,8) in
the above schedule with other combination of the two trip types. Therefore similar
to 5.2.1, we are able to design the schedule for given proportions of all trip types by
designing the schedule for corresponding ratio of every two trip types of the same
group.
As mentioned in assumption 47, we calculate for the exact schedule when Y=150 in
order to illustrate the model. For simplicity we let different trip types distribute
uniformly.
Similar with 5.2.1, in order to make sure every trip can achieve its duration, we need
Y ≥ 5 + 2(7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17) = 149. As Y=150, a certain trip can cover at
most 2 intervals each day, and for most time, a certain trip can only cover 1 interval.
Therefore, similar with 5.2.1, we can find out that only 2 days form a cycle. We only
present two days’ schedule, and the following days’ schedule can copy the cycle.
