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 …

Dynamic route choice in hurricane evacuation
… research a framework is developed for modeling route choice in hurricane evacuation. Two behavioral hypotheses are evaluated which together with the route choice model, constitute the contributions of the research. The first hypothesis states that beside congestion, other variables such as …

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 …

Route choice responses to variable road user charges and traffic information
This study investigates the drivers' route choice in response to variable road user charges and traffic information. Firstly, this study investigates the effects of information concerning traffic conditions on drivers' route choice behaviour and the way in which drivers evaluate the value of …

Investigating route-choice by recreational walkers in the English Lake District
… or on day visits, but elsewise not frequently. Route-choice was found to be related to, but not dependent on the casual-serious typology: one individual could be serious in their approach but undertake less demanding, ‘more casual’ walks at certain times. This can be built upon by future …

Using GPS data in route choice analysis : case study in Boston
… of its application is how people choose the route given the existing urban network. However, dealing with the excessive amount of data and the modeling of route choice behavior are two major challenges in the route choice analysis.This thesis discusses the general process in the route choice …

Explore pedestrian route choice preferences by demographic groups: analysis of street attributes in Chicago
… this pattern. This study investigates pedestrian route choice preferences in Chicago, Illinois, using a diverse dataset of home-based work walking trajectories collected from a smartphone application. The impact of street attributes on route choice is examined, and a comparison is made of how …

Validation of EcoRouting and an Analysis of the Impact of Traffic on Route Choice
… EcoRouting is a methodology that determines the route with the least energy consumption between two points. Standard navigation systems often determine the shortest or the fastest route, emphasizing travel time. EcoRouting considers an alternative criterion - energy consumption. In this thesis, …

Implementation and evaluation of an asymmetric equilibrium route choice model incorporating intersection-related travel times
… development and implementation of an equilibrium route choice model with asymmetric cost functions that reflect traffic interactions at urban intersections. Detailed models of intersection operation are embedded into a user-optimal route choice framework, so that link costs can be represented by a …

Incorporating Perceptions, Learning Trends, Latent Classes, and Personality Traits in the Modeling of Driver Heterogeneity in Route Choice Behavior
… in this work to reflect driver aggressiveness in route switching behavior. It may be interpreted as analogous to the commonly known personality-types, but applied to driver behavior. Third, driver heterogeneity is addressed via latent class choice models. Last, personality traits were found …

A Bi-Level Programming Formulation and Heuristic Solution Approach for Traffic Control Optimization in Networks With Dynamic Demand and Stochastic Route Choice
The essential part of the lower level problem is route choice model. This research proposes an algorithm framework which can accommodate various route choice models to investigate how the extended logit models change the equilibrium flow by using various treatments on overlapping paths and how much …

Urban transportation networks : analytical modeling of spatial dependencies and calibration techniques for stochastic traffic simulators
… of this thesis is to examine the calibration of route choice parameters in microscopic traffic simulators. Automatically calibrating simulators using traffic counts requires describing the relationship between route choice and traffic flows. This thesis proposes an analytical finite capacity …

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 …

Algorithms for Multi-objective Network Equilibrium Problems
… describe interactions between road users. The route choice of every individual influences travel times and level of congestion in the network, and, as a result, influences the route choice of other road users. Over time, such interactions lead to an equilibrium state when no road user can …

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 …

Parallel implementations of dynamic traffic assignment models and algorithms for dynamic shortest path problems
… the dynamic network loading model and the user's route choice model. We apply parallel computing technology to the dynamic network loading model to achieve faster implementations. To the best of our knowledge, this concerns the first parallel implementations of macroscopic DTA models. Two loading …
