Network Design Problem to Prevent Chaotic Flow, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pourzahedi, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
Two significant features of a transportation network, uncertainty and complexity, might cause some irregular behaviors. One example of such behaviors is chaotic flow in which the transportation system fails to reach equilibrium and people experience different daily travel times. These uncertainties are not controllable in any transportation system and, if not taken into consideration, will result to low levels of service and poor reliability. In this study, an evolutionary traffic assignmet model is used to illustrate when the network reaches bifurcation and chaos. Later, the effects of uncertainty in the parameters of supply and demand is tested on the evolutionary traffic assignment model....
