ANALYSIS OF LANE-BLOCKING EVENTS WITH AN ANALYTICAL DYNAMIC TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT MODEL

摘要

An analytical-based dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) model intended for off-line analysis and evaluation of non-recurring lane-blocking events is proposed. Formulated as a variational inequality (VI), this model solves an ideal dynamic user-optimal (DUO) route choice problem. A diagonalization algorithm is proposed to solve the model to a prespecified convergence using a large-scale, real-life traffic network.
