Fixed-Point Model and Schedule Reliability of Morning Commuting in Stochastic and Time-Dependent Transport Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a fixed-point model for studying the morning commuting behavior in stochastic and time-dependent transport networks. The model considers the network uncertainty caused by supply and demand variations as well as the commuters’ perception errors on travel disutility. A new performance index called schedule reliability, i.e., the probability that commuters can arrive at destination on time or within a given time threshold early or late, is introduced to evaluate the network service level. The solution algorithm which combines the Monte Carlo simulation approach with the method of successive average is proposed together with a numerical example for demonstration.

متن کاملOptimal Adaptive Routing and Traffic Assignment in Stochastic Time-Dependent Networks
A stochastic time-dependent (STD) network is defined by treating all link travel times at all time periods as random variables, with possible time-wise and link-wise stochastic dependency. A routing policy is a decision rule which specifies what node to take next out of the current node based on the current time and online information. A formal framework is established for optimal routing polic...
متن کاملInvestigating Impacts of Sustainable Repair Time and Circuit Breaker Model on Meshed Distribution Networks Reliability Assessment
Generally, the failure rate and the repair time of system components are constant parameters in reliability assessment of electric distribution systems. A failure of component is resulted from failing in the operation or overloading. In addition, there exist cases where, the repair times of components are small and tolerable from customer point of view. Thus, tolerable repair times may be overl...

In this paper, a novel quadratic assignment-based mathematical model is developed for concurrent design of robust inter and intra-cell layouts in dynamic stochastic environments of manufacturing systems. In the proposed model, in addition to considering time value of money, the product demands are presumed to be dependent normally distributed random variables with known expectation, variance, a...
متن کاملCommon Fixed Points and Invariant Approximations for Cq-commuting Generalized nonexpansive mappings
Some common fixed point theorems for Cq-commuting generalized nonexpansive mappings have been proved in metric spaces. As applications, invariant approximation results are also obtained. The results proved in the paper extend and generalize several known results including those of M. Abbas and J.K. Kim [Bull. Korean Math. Soc. 44(2007) 537-545], I. Beg, N. Shahzad and M. Iqbal [Approx. Theory A...
