User-equilibrium (UE) static deterministic traffic assignment is a widely accepted model among researchers, and is extensively applied in travel forecasting practice. UE route flows are also quite commonly used in methodological research as well as in practical applications, even though it is...

Consistent transportation forecasting models that combine travel demand and network assignment are receiving more attention in recent years. A fixed point formulation for the general combined model is presented. Measures for solution accuracy are discussed. An origin-based algorithm for solving...

In traffic assignment models with time-varying flows (dynamic network loading or dynamic traffic assignment), overtaking behaviour is normally not included in the model and, in that case, it is important that the model at least approximates first-in–first-out (FIFO), to prevent deviations from...

Dynamic network loading (DNL) models need to address both the behavior of traffic at different roadway elements (sections, merges and diverges) as well as the propagation of flows along routes. Most models presented so far devote more attention to one of the two issues. This paper aims to...

The static user-equilibrium (UE) traffic assignment model is widely used in practice. One main computational challenge in this model is to obtain sufficiently precise solutions suitable for scenario comparisons, as quickly as possible. An additional computational challenge stems from the need in...

Recent studies demonstrate the importance of computational precision of user equilibrium traffic assignment solutions for scenario comparisons. When traffic assignment is hierarchically embedded in a model for network design and/or road pricing, not only the precision of the solution itself...

Several urban traffic models make the convenient assumption that turning probabilities are independent, meaning that the probability of turning right (or left or going straight through) at the downstream intersection is the same for all travelers on that roadway, regardless of their origin or...

A combined model of interregional, multimodal commodity shipments, incorporating regional input-output relationships, and the associated transportation network flows is formulated as an alternative to the traditional four-step travel forecasting procedure of trip generation, distribution, mode...

We present a reformulation of the residential location submodel of the Integrated Model of Residential and Employment Location as a network equilibrium problem, thereby making travel costs by auto endogenous. The location of housing supply is examined as a welfare maximization problem for both...
