We analyse the behaviour of market participants in a multi-modal commuter network where roads are not priced, but …, and markets in which separate operators own each public transport link. To do so, we consider a simple transport network … influenced by all fares in the network. We then use numerical simulations to show that, contrary to the results obtained in …

This paper presents the design of the sea toll network, especially in choosing the combination of the marine toll … network that has the best performance, in terms of profit and benefit. The problem of selecting the best combination in this … lower-level problem is related to network loading due to sea toll operations, while the upper-level problem is related to …

This paper discusses a number of issues centred around the evaluation of the benefits and costs of transport. It is argued that, for various reasons, transport cannot be treated as an ‘ordinary’ economic sector, and in the paper the policy implications of a number of the sector’s...

In this paper, we demonstrate how a new network performance/efficiency measure, which captures demands, flows, costs …, and behavior on networks, can be used to assess the importance of network components and their rankings.We provide new … power generation and distribution network in the form of a supply chain. The Nagurney and Qiang network performance …

A transportation network is a complex system that exhibits the properties of selforganization and emergence. Previous … research in dynamics related to transportation networks focuses on traffic assignment or traffic management. This research … concentrates on the dynamics of the orientation of major roads in a network and abstractly models these dynamics to understand the …

In a scale‐free network, the chance of … observing extremes in network connections becomes higher than the Gaussian distribution predicts and, therefore, it explains the … to other cities on the transportation network can boost its local economy and explains the city‐size distribution as a …
