A predictive continuum dynamic user-optimal (PDUO-C) model is formulated in this study to investigate the dynamic characteristics of traffic flow and the corresponding route-choice behavior of travelers within a region with a dense urban road network. The modeled region is arbitrary in shape...

Consider a city with several facilities competing for multi-class users that are distributed continuously over space. Within the city region, the road network is relatively dense and is considered as a continuum. A user equilibrium condition results when users freely make their choice of...

This paper presents an application of the continuum traffic equilibrium model for the cordon-based congestion pricing problem. The traffic equilibrium model treats densely spaced roads as a continuum over which commuters are continuously dispersed. Suppose in the morning peak-hour, all commuters...

This paper proposes a new scheduled-based transit assignment model. Unlike other schedule-based models in the literature, we consider supply uncertainties and assume that users adopt strategies to travel from their origins to their destinations. We present an analytical formulation to ensure...

In this paper, we propose a user equilibrium transit assignment model that takes into account transit schedules and individual vehicle capacities explicitly. The model assumes that passengers use travel strategies that can be adaptive over time and graphically represented as subgraphs. When...

In this paper, we extend the toll pricing framework previously developed for vehicular traffic networks to ones with the potential to include many modes of transportation such as walking, driving, and using public conveyance (e.g., buses, subways, and trains). To determine tolls, we construct a...
