Dynamic Model of Peak Period Traffic Congestion with Elastic Arrival Rates

摘要: The paper develops a dynamic model of peak period traffic congestion that considers limited number bottlenecks. predicts the temporal distribution volumes with an elastic demand model. In response to changes in conditions travelers can switch different mode, divert alternate route, or shift trip forward backward time avoid long delay. A simple example would be case two parallel routes jointly selecting route and departure time. choice mode are dependent on travel times costs. is based trade-off between schedule delay which difference actual desired arrival times. delays at bottlenecks modeled deterministic queueing determines waiting as function length queue bottleneck. day adjustment derived...
