Abstract

A multiclass simultaneous transportation equilibrium model (MSTEM) explicitly distinguishes between different user classes in terms of socioeconomic attributes, trip purpose, pure and combined transportation modes, as well as departure time, all interacting over a physically unique multimodal network. It enhances the prediction process behaviorally by combining the trip generation and departure time choices to trip distribution, modal split, and trip assignment choices in a unified and flexible framework that has many advantages from both supply and demand sides. However, the development of this concept of multiple classes increases the mathematical complexity of travel forecasting models. In this research, the authors reduce this mathematical complexity by using the supernetwork representation formulation of the diagonalized MSTEM as a fixed demand user equilibrium (FDUE) problem.
