How Germans use their time
Scheffel, Juliane - 2011
Diese Dissertation besteht aus vier Aufsätzen, die zur empirischen Literatur der Allokation der Arbeitszeit beitragen. Der erste Artikel untersucht die Wechselbeziehung zwischen Arbeit und Sozialleben von Paaren und untersucht die Synchronisation der Arbeitszeiten. Ein neuer Analyseansatz wird...

An examination of county-level labor market responses to economic growth in Kansas
Schlosser, Janet A. - 2008
markets are not bound by county lines, commuting and migration are important factors to consider when measuring employment …, in-commuting, and out-commuting. The model was estimated using Ordinary Least Squares regression and was simulated to … predict changes in labor force, unemployment and commuting as a result of a change in employment for all 105 Kansas counties …

The day activity schedule approach to travel demand analysis
Bowman, John L. - 1998
This study develops a model of a person's day activity schedule that can be used to forecast urban travel demand. It is motivated by the notion that travel outcomes are part of an activity scheduling decision, and uses discrete choice models to address the basic modeling problem-capturing...

Das Problem der Leerfahrten im Straßenverkehr – und Möglichkeiten zu deren Reduzierung
Müller, Stefanie - 2010
Der Straßengüterverkehr in Deutschland hat ein enormes Ausmaß angenommen: Mehr als 80 Prozent der gesamten volkswirtschaftsweiten Gütertonnage in Deutschland oder – in absoluten Zahlen– etwa drei Milliarden Tonnen Waren werden jährlich per Lkw transportiert. Entwicklungen wie die Tendenz...

Forecasting urban highway travel for year 2005
Miaou, Shaw-Pin; Rathi, A.K.; Southworth, F.; Greene, D.L. - 2008
As part of a study aimed at estimating suburban highway needs for year 2005, models were developed for forecasting daily vehicle miles of travel (DVMT) for urban areas and its distribution by highway functional class, urban location, and urban area size. A regression model combining both time...

The dynamics of iterated transportation simulations
Nagel, K.; Rickert, M.; Simon, P.M. - 2009
Transportation-related decisions of people often depend on what everybody else is doing. For example, decisions about mode choice, route choice, activity scheduling, etc., can depend on congestion, caused by the aggregated behavior of others. From a conceptual viewpoint, this consistency problem...

Comparison between three different traffic micro-simulations and reality in Dallas
Nagel, K.; Pieck, M.; Simon, P.M.; Rickert, M. - 2009
It is certainly desirable that transportation forecasting models are correct in the sense that the traffic patterns they predict correspond to what would happen in reality under the circumstances assumed in the forecasting model. Unfortunately, it is notoriously difficult to transform the above...
