PACIFIC RIM TRANSTECH CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS. VOLUME I. SIMULATION OF THE DYNAMIC TRAFFIC FLOW ON URBAN ROAD NETWORK

Satoshi Kawakami, Z C Liu, Lunhui Xu

Abstract

It is noted that methods of performing dynamic traffic assignment are needed to simulate traffic conditions on urban highways during peak periods of congestion. This study first analyzed the route choice behavior of two kinds of dynamic user, and then formulated the constraints for a dynamic traffic assignment problem. A practical simulation method was developed to perform dynamic traffic assignment for urban road networks. The method was applied to dynamic assignment of the road network in Nagoya City.
