Stated Preference Study of Long-Haul Commercial Vehicle Route Choice Behavior
… economic impacts. Research on commercial vehicle route choice is needed to inform planners in developing strategies that balance mobility and sustainability. Potential factors developed from an exhaustive literature review are incorporated into a stated preference survey on routing decisions. The …

Incorporating Perceptions, Learning Trends, Latent Classes, and Personality Traits in the Modeling of Driver Heterogeneity in Route Choice Behavior
Driver heterogeneity in travel behavior has repeatedly been cited in the literature as a limitation that needs to be addressed. In this work, driver heterogeneity is addressed from four different perspectives. First, driver heterogeneity is addressed by models of driver perceptions of travel …

Simulation and verification of autonomous route planning behavior
… disruptions. This new simulator investigates the route choice behavior of cars in an urban environment. It allows subjects to participate as drivers in virtual city environments directly as well as artificial intelligence algorithms. It provides a platform for experimentation with various …

Network knowledge and route choice
Models of urban traveler route choice are reviewed in the context of Intelligent Transportation Systems, particularly Advanced Traveler Information S ystems. Existing models suffer from assumptions of perfect information about travel conditions a nd infinite information processing capabilities of …

Using GPS data in route choice analysis : case study in Boston
… the pattern of geographical information of human behavior and also help dig opportunities in real world. In transportation field, they help people better understand the transportation behavior and at the same time collect necessary information for us. One important aspect of its application is how …

Bus use behavior in multi-route corridors
Multi-route corridors are a common feature of bus networks. In these corridors, passengers select between a set of parallel routes. Understanding how passengers make these decisions can help better measure passenger experience and inform network and service planning. This thesis develops three …

Multi-modal Energy Consumption Modeling and Eco-routing System Development
… transit in most of the trip. A successful eco-route planning thus should be able to cover multiple traffic modes and offer intermodal routing suggestions. Developing such a system requires to address extensive concerns. The dissertation is a building block of the multi-modal energy-efficient …

Essays on the Economic Analysis of Transportation Systems
… (RUM), is expanded to a model of count of mode choice. The extended travel demand model is derived from general economic theory -- maximizing instantaneous utility on the time horizon, subject to a budget constraint -- and can capture the dynamic behavior of countable travel demand. Because the …

Modifying TRANSIMS (Transportation Analysis and Simulation) to Include Dynamic Value Pricing and Departure Time Choice
… rescheduling of activities (i.e., departure time choice model) in response to network conditions. The primary objectives of this study are to improve functions of TRANSIMS by modifying source codes in order to utilize non-linear, individual VOT function in route choice of a HOT lane value pricing …

Analisi comportamentale della scelta del percorso attraverso l'utilizzo di nuove tecnologie di acquisizione delle informazioni
In travel demand modeling, route choice is one of the most complex decision-making contexts to understand and mathematically represent for several reasons. Firstly, a large number of available paths may exist between the same origin-destination (OD) pair. Secondly, neither the traveler nor the …

Mitigating negative transport externalities in industrialized and industrializing countries
… due to exclusion of external costs from behavioral decision making process and to derive real-world policy recommendations. The first part investigates and compares the effect of congestion pricing on emissions levels and the effect of emission pricing on congestion levels while …
