A Subjective Optimal Strategy for Transit Simulation Models

الملخص EN

A behavioural modelling framework with a dynamic travel strategy path choice approach is presented for unreliable multiservice transit networks.

The modelling framework is especially suitable for dynamic run-oriented simulation models that use subjective strategy-based path choice models.

After an analysis of the travel strategy approach in unreliable transit networks with the related hyperpaths, the search for the optimal strategy as a Markov decision problem solution is considered.

The new modelling framework is then presented and applied to a real network.

The paper concludes with an overview of the benefits of the new behavioural framework and outlines scope for further research.
