The effect of environmental uncertainty on equilibrium patterns is vital importance to understand travel choice behavior. This paper conducted a laboratory experiment investigate the effects stochastic bottleneck capacity departure time In experiment, varied stochastically from round round, and two different scenarios with information feedback were investigated. Our experimental results showed ...

Passengers would like to choose the most suitable train based on their travel preferences, expenses, and timetable in high-speed railway corridor. Meanwhile, department will constantly adjust according distribution of passenger flows during a day achieve optimal operation cost energy consumption saving plan. The question is how meet differential needs passengers sustainable goals service provid...

In 2008, the majority of U.S. airlines began charging first for one, and then, two checked bags. One of the often cited reasons for this action by the airlines’ executives was that this would influence customers to travel with less baggage and thus improve cost and operational performance. A notable exception to the charging for checked bags trend was Southwest Airlines, who turned their resist...

The growing traffic congestion in urban areas creates an urgent need for a better transportation planning. In this context, traffic assignment models can be used to help public authorities to test the impact of various transportation policies such as enlarging areas where bottleneck occurs, work start time flexbility etc. The representation of traffic variations over time allows dynamic transpo...

A within-day dynamic demand model is formulated, embodying, in addition to the classic generation, distribution and modal split stages, an actual demand model taking into account departure time choice. The work focuses on this last stage, represented through an extension of the discrete choice framework to a continuous choice set. The dynamic multimodal supply and equilibrium model based on imp...

We present an efficient algorithm for effecting round-robin service in discrete-event simulation systems. The approach generalizes and improves upon a previous approach in which a single arrival and a single departure event is considered and handled at a time; further, the previous approach is already an improvement over naive round-robin scheduling currently in use in simulation libraries. The...

This paper studies the last departure time from a queue with a terminating arrival process. This problem is motivated by a model of two-stage inspection in which finitely many items come to a first stage for screening. Items failing first-stage inspection go to a second stage to be examined further. Assuming that arrivals at the second stage can be regarded as an independent thinning of the dep...
