The aim of this paper is to contribute to describe the simultaneous choice of travel mode and 1 departure time by making use of a cross-nested logit structure that allows for the joint representation of 2 inter-alternative correlation along the both choice dimensions. Traditional multinomial logit model and 3 nested logit model are formulated respectively. The analysis uses the Revealed Prefere...

In this paper we propose a composite Variational Inequality formulation for modeling multi-mode, multi-class and multi-criteria stochastic dynamic user equilibrium problem in recurrent congestion network with queues. The each mode of travelers is classified into two classes. One is the equipped traveler following stochastic dynamic user-equilibrium with less uncertainty of travel cost, another ...

A feedback simulation model based on radial basis function neural networks is newly developed in this research to analyse the interaction between urban densities and travel mode split. The changes of populations, road mileages, travel mode split, and so on of the enlarging urbanized areas of different cities in China are studied for the trainings of the radial basis function neural networks con...

We describe the design and evaluation of a system named Quantified Traveler (QT). QT is a Computational Travel Feedback System. Travel Feedback is an established programmatic method whereby travelers record travel in diaries, and meet with a counselor who guides her to alternate mode or trip decisions that are more sustainable or otherwise beneficial to society, while still meeting the subject'...

BACKGROUND This study investigated the association of travel mode to school and non-school destinations with objectively assessed health markers and physical activity in an ethnically diverse sample of inner-city UK schoolchildren. METHODS We used data from the Camden Active Spaces project (n = 450 children aged 9.1 yrs) to examine associations of school travel mode and frequency of active tr...

Energy shortage and atmospheric pollution problems are getting more serious in China, and transportation is the main source of energy consumption, pollutants, and carbon emissions. This study combined the activity-based analysis method with emission models, and investigated the influence mechanism of people’s activity travel scheduling on transportation energy consumption and emissions on holid...

Over the past couple of decades, Global positioning system (GPS) technology has been utilized to collect large-scale data from travel surveys. As the precise spatiotemporal characteristics of travel could be provided by GPS devices, the issues of traditional travel survey, such as misreporting and non-response, could be addressed. Considering the defects of dedicated GPS devices (e.g., need muc...

the internet is already the primary source of tourist destination information for travelers. according to world tourism organization, about 95% of web users use the internet to gather travel related information and about 93% indicate that they visited tourism web sites when planning for vacations. the number of people turning to the internet for vacation and travel planning has increased more t...

Most travel behavior studies on route and mode choice focus only on an individual level. This paper adopts the concept of multi-state supernetworks to model the two-person joint travel problem (JTP). Travel is differentiated in terms of activity-vehiclejoint states, i.e. travel separately or jointly with which transport mode and with which activities conducted. In each state, route choice can b...
