In this paper a new formulation of within-day dynamic traffic assignment is presented, where a dynamic user equilibrium is expressed as a fixed-point problem in terms of arc flow temporal profiles. Specifically, it is shown that, by extending to the dynamic case the concept of network loading...

In this paper, we propose a new model for the within-day Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) on road networks where the simulation of queue spillovers is explicitly addressed, and a user equilibrium is expressed as a fixed-point problem in terms of arc flow temporal profiles, i.e., in the infinite...

The applying of simplified schemes, such as cordon pricing, as second-best solution to the toll network design problem is investigated here in the context of multiclass traffic assignment on multimodal networks. To this end a suitable equilibrium model has been developed, together with an...

In this paper, we present a new nonstationary link-based macroscopic arc performance model with capacity constraints, derived from an approximate solution to the simplified kinematic wave theory which based on the assumption, often introduced in the algorithms solving Dynamic Traffic Assignment,...

The mathematical formulation of the problem of maximizing the green band in a two-way street is performed. In so doing, in addition to problems for which the bandwidths are unsplit, we consider cases in which the bandwidths in a single cycle, in one or both directions, are split into two...

A new approach to arterial progression optimisation, based upon the properties of periodicity in time and space of the system, gives rise to the concept of equivalent systems and module of the system, which allow us to devise a very rapid algorithm for solving a bandwidth maximisation problem....

<title>Abstract</title> The concepts of optimal strategy and hyperpath were born within the framework of static frequency-based public transport assignment, where it is assumed that travel times and frequencies do not change over time and no overcrowding occurs. However, the formation of queues at public...

Traffic assignment is a set of criteria through which the demand for mobility is distributed over the links of a transport network. Over the last 30 years, Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) models have been developed to support time-dependent analyses in nascent fields that need to take into...
