The Usefulness of Transport Models in Swedish Planning Practice

Jonsson, Daniel; Berglund, Svante; Almström, Peter; … - CTS - Centre for Transport Studies Stockholm (KTH and VTI) - 2011

This paper presents some experience from using transport models in Swedish planning practice. First we outline three … recent examples of planning settings in which transport models have been put to extensive use. For the Swedish ‘national …’ transport plan for the period 2010–2021, which was recently finished, the national transport model SAMPERS was used to compute …

Samhällsekonomiskt effektiv tilldelning av järnvägskapacitet: några synpunkter på Trafikverkets nuvarande process

Eliasson, Jonas; Aronsson, Martin - CTS - Centre for Transport Studies Stockholm (KTH and VTI) - 2014

När inte järnvägskapaciteten räcker till för alla tågoperatörers önskemål ska Trafikverket enligt järnvägslagen fördela kapacitet till olika operatörer på ett samhällsekonomiskt effektivt sätt. För att utföra detta använder Trafikverket s k prioriteringskriterier. Vi...

Impacts of holding control strategies on transit performance: a bus simulation model analysis

Cats, Oded; Nabavi Larijani, Anahid; Koutsopoulos, Haris N. - CTS - Centre for Transport Studies Stockholm (KTH and VTI) - 2013

Transit operators are interested in strategies to improve service reliability as it is an important measure of performance and level of service. One of the common practices aimed to reduce service unreliability is holding control strategies. The design of these strategies involves the selection...

Effect of real-time transit information on dynamic path choice of passengers

Cats, Oded; Koutsopoulos, Haris N.; Burghout, Wilco; … - CTS - Centre for Transport Studies Stockholm (KTH and VTI) - 2013

Real-time information is increasingly being implemented in transit networks worldwide. The evaluation of the effect of real-time information requires dynamic modeling of transit operations and of passenger path choices. This paper presents a dynamic transit analysis and evaluation tool that...

Multi-agent transit operations and assignment model

Cats, Oded - CTS - Centre for Transport Studies Stockholm (KTH and VTI) - 2013

Transit systems exercise complex dynamics and evolve through the interaction of various agents. The analysis of transit performance requires emulating the dynamic loading of travellers and their interaction with the underlying transit system. Multi-agent simulations aim to mimic the emergence of...
