Traffic simulation has been extensively used as a decision support tool for efficient traffic management in daily life. During disasters and incidents, traffic simulation can further help rescue teams to understand the current traffic state and the possibl ...
Real-time coordinated traffic management strategies that benefit from parsimonious models with aggregated network dynamics, provide a new generation of smart hierarchical strategies to improve network capacity and performance. However, this raises the ques ...
Congestion is a phenomenon that arises in a variety of contexts. The most familiar representation is urban traffic congestion. Nonetheless, phenomenons such as prison cell congestion, hospital bed blocking or, at a cellular scale, ribosome congestion, also ...
Travel time is an important performance measure for transportation systems, and dissemination of travel time information can help travelers make reliable travel decisions such as route choice or departure time. Since the traffic data collected in real time ...
Research on congestion and propagation in large urban city networks has been mainly based on microsimulations of link-level traffic dynamics. However, both the unpredictability of travel behaviors and high complexity of accurate physical modeling remain ch ...
This study uses accessibility as a performance measure to evaluate a matrix of future land use and network scenarios for planning purposes. The concept of accessibility dates to the 1950s, but this type of application to transportation planning is new. Pre ...
Travel time is considered as one of the most important performance measures for roadway systems, and dissemination of travel time information can help travelers to make reliable travel decisions such as route choice or time departure. Since the traffic dat ...
Research on congestion propagation in large urban networks has been based mainly on microsimulations of link-level traffic dynamics. However, both the unpredictability of travel behavior and the complexity of accurate physical modeling present challenges, ...
An operational framework for the demand calibration in DTA microsimulations from traffic counts is presented. The calibrated choice dimensions comprise but are not constrained to route choice, departure time choice, and destination choice. The mathematical ...
Since centralized control of urban networks with detailed modeling approaches is computationally complex and inefficient, hierarchical decentralized methods based on aggregate models are of great importance. In this paper, we use an aggregate modeling appr ...
