Cascading failure with preferential redistribution on bus–subway coupled network

Robustness studies on integrated urban public transport networks have attracted growing attention in recent years due to the significant influence overall performance of system. In this paper, topological properties and robustness a bus–subway coupled network Beijing, composed both bus subway as well their interactions, are analyzed. Three new models depicting cascading failure processes proposed based an existing binary modeling approach. Simulation results show that more accurate than method reflecting actual passenger flow redistribution process. Moreover, traffic load between nodes also plays vital role network. The derived can be utilized improve systems planning.
