Scenario-Based Integrated Assignment Model for Bi-Class User Rail Transit Networks

Abstract:

An integrated assignment model for urban rail transit (URT) networks was proposed and discussed in four typical scenarios with the consideration of passenger difference between native and non-native. An overall algorithm framework for the model was also developed, which introduced three critical route choice models and combined them appropriately to different scenarios. A case study was performed on a real-scale network of Shanghai during the Expo 2010. The results revealed that the proposed model can deliver more appropriate solution to the assignment problem compared to the existing practice in the real world.
