Description
Summary:"TRB's Transportation Research Record (TRR): Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2429 consists of 19 papers that examine methods for quantitative risk analysis for travel demand model forecasts; models of demand elasticity and route overlapping; ways of incorporating the variable of escorting children to school to model individual daily activity patterns of household members; uncertainty in speed-flow curve parameters on a large-scale model; use of synthetic population for transportation applications; and sequential estimation and estimation of hybrid choice models. This issue also explores an integrated transportation planning framework involving a combined utility regret approach; joint modeling of trip mode and departure time choices using revealed and stated preference data; choice set imputation using a two-step weighted stratified and hazard-based approach; a multiple discrete-continuous model of activity participation and time allocation for home-based work tours; an empirical assessment of spatial transferability of tour-based, time-of-day choice models; modeling taxi trip demand by time of day in New York City; and application of a travel activity scheduler for household agents in a Chinese city. Additionally, this TRR summarizes the characterization of household vehicle fleet composition and count by type in an integrated modeling framework; extension of an activity-based modeling approach to incorporate supply side of activities; practical solutions for sampling alternatives in large-scale models; using survey calibration and statistical matching to reweight and distribute activity schedules; synthetic population generation at disaggregated spatial scales for land use and transportation microsimulation; and model complexities and requirements for multimodal transportation network design."--Publisher's description.
"TRB's Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2430 consists of 23 papers that examine modeling demand for bikesharing systems; origin-destination centrality to estimate directional bicycle volumes; imputation of GPS traces forcing full or partial consistency in activity travel sequences; information diffusion in social networks toward sustainable transportation; models of nonmotorized travel demand at intersections in Calgary, Canada; and safety and security in discretionary travel decision making. This issue also summarizes Generation Y's travel behavior and perceptions of walkability constraints; location-based social networking data; multidimensional indicator analyses for transportation policy evaluation; characterizations of the composition of economic activities in central locations; a cellular agent-based approach incorporating spatial discrete choice methods; and validation of origin-destination data from Bluetooth reidentification and aerial observation. This TRR also explores emissions benefits of bicycle facilities with stand-alone software tools; a comparison of adapted four-step metropolitan planning organization modeling results and planning process findings with actual experience; development of a vehicle fleet composition model system for implementation in an activity-based travel model; models of cyclists' route choice based on GPS data; and the process of encapsulating and visualizing disaggregated origin-destination desire lines to identify in-demand corridors. Additionally, this TRR examines a choice set generation algorithm used to measure route choice accessibility; the impact of transportation policies on fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions using a household vehicle fleet simulator; a cost-effectiveness sketch method for safety investment decision making; empirical models of demand levels and turn-in rates at roadside rest areas; and the impact of proposed land use and transportation investments on future travel patterns in California."--Publisher's description.
