“…Although various mathematical formulations of DUE have been proposed (see, Szeto and Wong, 2011), they are considerably complex ways to analyze properties of an equilibrium because they must handle the complicated nested structure between link and path travel times in a network. Consequently, many issues remain regarding DUE properties, such as their existence, uniqueness, and stability (Iryo, 2013).…”

This paper presents a transparent approach to the analysis of dynamic user equilibrium and clarifies the properties of a departuretime choice equilibrium of a corridor problem where discrete multiple bottlenecks exist along a freeway. The basis of our approach is the transformation of the formulation of equilibrium conditions in a conventional "Eulerian coordinate system" into one in a "Lagrangian-like coordinate system." This enables us to evaluate dynamic travel times easily, and to achieve a deep understanding of the mathematical structure of the problem, in particular, about the properties of the demand and supply (queuing) sub-models, relations with dynamic system optimal assignment, and differences between the morning and evening rush problems. Building on these foundations, we establish rigorous results on the existence and uniqueness of equilibria.

“…Moreover, drivers can link their licence plate number and payment account to the ETCP service to enjoy the automatic payment service for parking. This new trend brings many challenges to the adaptability of classic traffic models, which are typically developed based on theoretical derivation and survey data, such as Vickrey's bottleneck model, dynamic traffic assignment techniques and regression approaches [1][2][3][4].…”

As the products of intelligent transportation systems, parking apps have become convenient platforms for implementing parking policies, which can be provided as parking app services. This paper proposes a traffic simulation model for evaluating the impacts of parking app services on the travellers’ choice behaviour and traffic dynamics. Travellers are assumed to use three types of parking app services: the provision of information on real-time parking lot occupancies, parking reservation, and the display of dynamic parking fees. The behaviour of travellers, such as travellers’ mode choices, departure time choices, and learning behaviour, are considered in this model. Numerical experiments show that providing information on real-time parking lot occupancies can be helpful in reducing the use ratio of commercial parking lots, but the effect will ultimately be smoothed during the evolution of traffic dynamics. Moreover, parking reservation is an effective way to reduce travel costs and encourage travellers to choose park-and-ride. Furthermore, dynamic parking fees usually lead to the oscillation of traffic dynamics and travellers’ choices, in addition to an increase in travel costs. This model is a useful tool for analysing the impacts of other parking management policies that can be implemented as parking app services and can be a reference for evaluating the impacts of other parking polices.

“…Besides considering multiple vehicles, some researchers studied other aspects of transportation, such as the route or mode choices [15,16], the uncertain traffic demand [17], the effects of different departure time [18], and the simultaneous departure time/route choices [19,20]. Reference [21] reviewed the model classification and travel choices adopted in DTA in recent years.…”

In the previously published work [1], we proposed a traveler oriented model which incorporates the traveler dynamics into the cell transmission model (TOM-CTM). By taking travelers as the source of the traffic load, this model can be used to enhance existingCTMs. An open source macro-simulation tool (AuroraRNM), is used for experiments on a real road network. The results show that the TOM-CTM can reflect traffic dynamics properly and reasonably, provides a way to find out the manageable status in a nonequilibrium traffic, and is more practical than user or system optimal solutions. Based on this model, in this extended version, we explored the effect of historical traffic information (HTI) on the traffic. We discussed an HTI guided model (HTIGM) which uses the time dependent shortest path as the guidance. The further simulation results show that the HTIGM can provide another manageable way to guide the traffic flow by influencing the travelers' choices and can be also used to spot the bottlenecks in road networks.
