Departure time choice equilibrium and tolling strategies for a bottleneck with stochastic capacity

J Long, H Yang, WY Szeto - Transportation Science, 2022 - pubsonline.informs.org
This paper develops a bottleneck model in which the capacity of the bottleneck is assumed
to be stochastic and follow a general distribution that has a positive upper bound. The user …

Congestion behavior and tolls in a bottleneck model with stochastic capacity

LL Xiao, HJ Huang, R Liu - Transportation Science, 2015 - pubsonline.informs.org
In this paper we investigate a bottleneck model in which the capacity of the bottleneck is
assumed stochastic and follows a uniform distribution. The commuters' departure time …

Departure time choice equilibrium and tolling strategies for a bottleneck with continuous scheduling preference

T Zhu, Y Li, J Long - Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and …, 2022 - Elsevier
This paper develops a bottleneck model with continuous scheduling preference (CSP),
which assumes that the unit cost of schedule delay penalty functions have continuously …

An ordinary differential equation formulation of the bottleneck model with user heterogeneity

WX Wu, HJ Huang - Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2015 - Elsevier
Considering heterogeneous values of time and schedule delay early, in this paper we
develop an ordinary differential equation formulation of the bottleneck model without …

Step tolling in an activity-based bottleneck model

ZC Li, WHK Lam, SC Wong - Transportation Research Part B …, 2017 - Elsevier
This paper investigates the step tolling problem in an activity-based bottleneck model in
which activity scheduling utilities of commuters at home and at work vary by the time of day …

Impact of capacity drop on commuting systems under uncertainty

W Zhang, H Zhao, R Jiang - Journal of Advanced …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
This paper analyzes the impact of capacity drop on commuters' travel choice behaviors
under uncertainty. For clarity, we assume that the capacity drop is triggered by the queue …

Travel cost budget based user equilibrium in a bottleneck model with stochastic capacity

Q Liu, R Jiang, R Liu, H Zhao, Z Gao - Transportation Research Part B …, 2020 - Elsevier
This paper studies a bottleneck model in which the capacity of the bottleneck is constant
within a day but changes stochastically from day-to-day between a designed value (good …

A single-step-toll equilibrium for the bottleneck model with dropped capacity

H Ren, Y Xue, J Long, Z Gao - Transportmetrica B: Transport …, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
The optimal time-varying tolling is cumbersome for practical implementation due to the
incomplete knowledge of toll determination and high costs for toll collection. Alternatively, a …

Stochastic bottleneck model with heterogeneous travelers

X Lingling, H Huang, T Lijun - Journal of Transportation Systems …, 2014 - Elsevier
This paper studies commuters' departure time choice behavior along a bottleneck
constrained highway connecting a resident area and a workplace. Commuters are …

Coarse tolling with heterogeneous preferences

VAC van den Berg - Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2014 - Elsevier
This paper analyses optimal coarse tolling of congestion under heterogeneous preferences,
and in particular its welfare and distributional effects. With coarse tolling, the toll equals a …
