In this paper, the authors integrate economic concepts of supply and demand equilibrium for urban activities using the concept of traffic equilibrium within transportation networks and describe the cutting edge in travel demand analysis using the latest methods.
Abstract
Describes the cutting edge in travel demand analysis using the latest methods. Emphasizing mathematical modeling techniques, this is the first book to integrate economic concepts of supply and demand equilibrium for urban activities using the concept of traffic equilibrium within transportation networks. Models for optimal transportation are integrated with demand models. Transit travel and goods movement are specifically addressed.

How the built environment affects physical activity: views from urban planning

TL;DR: To provide more conclusive evidence, the available evidence lends itself to the argument that a combination of urban design, land use patterns, and transportation systems that promotes walking and bicycling will help create active, healthier, and more livable communities.

The measurement of urban travel demand

TL;DR: In this article, travel demand forecasting has been the province of transportation engineers, who have built up over the years considerable empirical wisdom and a repertory of largely ad hoc models which have proved successful in various applications.

The Choice Theory Approach to Market Research

Daniel McFadden
- 01 Nov 1986 - 
TL;DR: The authors surveys economic choice theory, stressing developments that permit use of data from psychometric and conjoint experiments to produce market demand forecasts, and a new method for estimating multinomial probits is described.
