Journal ArticleDOI
Microscopic pedestrian simulation model combined with a tactical model for route choice behaviour
TL;DR: This study builds a microscopic model of pedestrian behaviour using a two-player game and assuming that pedestrians anticipate movements of other pedestrians so as to avoid colliding with them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporating an information acquisition process into a route choice model with multiple information sources
TL;DR: In this paper, a route choice model is proposed that takes into account the information acquisition and reference process, and the empirical relationship between drivers' reaction to multiple information sources, causal factors latent psychological ones, traffic conditions at the time of traveling and the accuracy of traffic information available.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decomposition of the reactive dynamic assignments with queues for a many-to-many origin-destination pattern
Masao Kuwahara,Takashi Akamatsu +1 more
TL;DR: This research discusses the formulation and solution algorithm of the reactive dynamic traffic assignment with the link travel time explicitly taking into account the effects of queues under the point queue concept and an algorithm is proposed based upon the decomposition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic user optimal assignment with physical queues for a many-to-many OD pattern
Masao Kuwahara,Takashi Akamatsu +1 more
TL;DR: The dynamic user optimal assignment under the point queue concept is extended so as to deal with physical queues and the optimal condition is defined and the physical queue propagation based on the kinematic wave theory is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equilibrium Queueing Patterns at a Two-Tandem Bottleneck during the Morning Peak
TL;DR: This work considers the possibility that some commuters pass two bottlenecks on their way to work, and develops queue evolutions that illustrate a service priority at the downstream bottleneck in favor of commuters passing only the upstream bottleneck.
