Transit systems offer substantially different services in urban and inter-urban areas; this usually leads to different assumptions about user behaviour in path choice modelling. These differences have not yet been recognised in mode choice modelling. Consistent with the above, in this paper we...

Equilibrium analyses of transportation networks are by their nature "static," with equilibrium configuration defined as "fixed" or "autoreflexive" points, i.e. flow patterns reproducing themselves on the basis of the assumptions made on users' behavior once reached by the system. In this paper...

Methods commonly used for estimating origin-destination (O-D) matrices can be divided into three categories: direct sample estimation, model estimation and estimation from traffic counts. In this paper a generalized least squares estimator of the O-D matrix is proposed combining direct or model...

This paper presents an in-depth study of the methodology for estimating or updating origin-to-destination trip matrices from traffic counts. Following an analysis of the statistical foundation of the estimation and updating problems, various basic approaches are reviewed using a generic traffic...

The paper presents a method of measuring the quality of circulation worked out by processing the data derived from 155, 000 vehicle passages over two sections of two-lane, divided-carriageway motorway of identical geometric characteristics. The mass of observed data was broken down into a...
