CE6203Transportation Planning and Modeling3 ch
Introduction to transport planning and modeling, aggregate and disaggregate models, various techniques used in trip generation, distribution, mode split and network assignment of four-step transport models, such as regression analysis, cross-classification, growth factor method, gravity models, entropy-maximising approach, direct demand model, discrete choice model, all-or-nothing assignment, Wordrop’s equilibrium assignment, sketch planning methods, and model estimation using traffic counts. Other relevant topics, such as car-ownership, value of travel time, freight transport models, activity-based models, and integrated land use transport models, will also be briefly covered.
