SPATIAL VARIATION OF REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION NETWORK STRUCTURE

Changing Regional Spatial Structure of the Population and Activity The Case of West Azerbaijan Province, Iran

Functional and structural changes of regional system are ongoing spatial changes that form patterns of spatial organization, depending on dominant regional forces and factors. Spatial structure of West Azerbaijan province experienced significant changes during 15 years; thus, the present research aim to investigate the manner of spatial distribution of two variables of population and activity, ...

Regional Transportation

strongly supports academic freedom and a researcher's right to publish; as an institution, however, the Laboratory does not endorse the viewpoint of a publication or guarantee its technical correctness. Abstract. For transportation planning applications , it is useful to not only model each individual traveler, but also the decision-making process leading to her travel demand. Simulation-based ...

Incorporating Transportation Network Structure in Spatial Econometric Models of Commodity Flows

We introduce a regression-based gravity model for commodity flows between 35 regions in Austria. We incorporate information regarding the highway network into the spatial connectivity structure of the spatial autoregressive econometric model. We find that our approach produces improved model fit and higher likelihood values. The model accounts for spatial dependence in the origin-destination fl...

Regional Transportation Simulations

Network structure and spatial separation

This research aims to identify the role of network architecture in influencing individual travel behavior using travel survey data from Minneapolis-Saint Paul and Florida (Fort Lauderdale and Miami). Various measures of network structure, compiled from existing sources, are used to quantify roadway networks, and to capture the arrangement and connectivity of nodes and links in the networks and ...
