Criticism of generally accepted fundamentals and methodologies of traffic and transportation theory: A brief review

BS Kerner - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2013 - Elsevier
It is explained why the set of the fundamental empirical features of traffic breakdown (a
transition from free flow to congested traffic) should be the empirical basis for any traffic and …

A primer for agent-based simulation and modeling in transportation applications

H Zheng, YJ Son, YC Chiu, L Head, Y Feng, H Xi… - 2013 - rosap.ntl.bts.gov
Agent-based modeling and simulation (ABMS) methods have been applied in a spectrum of
research domains. This primer focuses on ABMS in the transportation interdisciplinary …

Boundedly rational user equilibria (BRUE): mathematical formulation and solution sets

X Di, HX Liu, JS Pang, XJ Ban - Procedia-Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2013 - Elsevier
Boundedly rational user equilibria (BRUE) represent traffic flow distribution patterns where
travellers can take any route whose travel cost is within an 'indifference band'of the shortest …

Solving discretely constrained, mixed linear complementarity problems with applications in energy

SA Gabriel, AJ Conejo, C Ruiz, S Siddiqui - Computers & Operations …, 2013 - Elsevier
This paper presents an approach to solving discretely constrained, mixed linear
complementarity problems (DC-MLCPs). Such formulations include a variety of interesting …

A portfolio theory of route choice

D Levinson, S Zhu - Transportation Research Part C: Emerging …, 2013 - Elsevier
Although many individual route choice models have been proposed to incorporate travel
time variability as a decision factor, they are typically still deterministic in the sense that the …

Toll sequence operation to realize target flow pattern under bounded rationality

X Guo - Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2013 - Elsevier
Because boundedly rational user equilibrium (BRUE) always has a set of solutions instead
of a unique one, from a static network equilibrium viewpoint, under BRUE there is no …

Drivers' perception of route alternatives as indicator for the indifference band

J Vreeswijk, T Thomas, E van Berkum… - Transportation …, 2013 - journals.sagepub.com
Although travel time is probably one of the most important attributes in route choice, the
shortest time route is often not the preferred route, according to several studies in the …

Risk-neutral second best toll pricing

XJ Ban, MC Ferris, L Tang, S Lu - Transportation Research Part B …, 2013 - Elsevier
We propose a risk-neutral second best toll pricing (SBTP) scheme to account for the
possible nonuniqueness of user equilibrium solutions. The scheme is designed to optimize …

Latent Class choice model of heterogeneous drivers' route choice behavior based on learning in a real-world experiment

AM Tawfik, HA Rakha - Transportation research record, 2013 - journals.sagepub.com
This paper presents a route choice model of latent class heterogeneous drivers that is based
on learning in a real-world experiment. Previous publications have presented findings about …

Influence of experience on users' behaviour: a day-to-day model for route choice updating

ML De Maio, A Vitetta, D Watling - Procedia-Social and Behavioral …, 2013 - Elsevier
The performance of a transportation network is the consequence of users' choices and the
interaction of these choices. Several aspects influence users' choices. For the analyst of the …
