Session #10 ENHANCED FRAMEWORK FOR MODELING URBAN TRUCK TRIPS
Recently there has been renewed interest in modeling urban truck movements. This is potentially important for improving traffic forecasts as well as for a host of other applications including ITS. Despite attempts to fit truck trips models into a passenger modeling framework, there are unique aspects of urban freight movements, such as trip chaining, that must be considered for credible models....

متن کاملEstimating switching costs: the case of banking
We present an empirical model of firm behavior in the presence of switching costs. Customers’ transition probabilities, embedded in firms’ value maximization, are used in a multiperiod model to derive estimable equations of a first-order condition, market share (demand), and supply equations. The novelty of the model is in its ability to extract information on both the magnitude and significanc...
متن کاملHospital Costs and Unexpected Demand : The Case of Greece §
Demand for hospital inpatient care varies in a consistent way. However, a part of this variability is unpredictable. Hospitals react to this situation by holding standby capacity in order to be prepared to meet unanticipated surges in demand. This paper examines the production responses to unexpected hospital demand on a sample of Greek public hospitals over the period 2001-2005. The hospital o...
