MODELLING TRANSPORT Comprehensive Textbook Resource for Understanding Transport Modelling
Modelling Transport provides unrivalled depth and breadth of coverage on the topic of transport modelling. Each topic is approached as a modelling exercise with discussion of the roles of theory, data, model specification, estimation, validation, and application. The authors present the state of the art and its practical application in a pedagogic manner, easily understandable to both students and practitioners. An accompanying website hosts a solutions manual.
Sample topics and learning resources included in the work are as follows:
State-of-the-art developments in the field of transport modelling, including new research and examples
Factors to consider for better modelling and forecasting
Information and analysis on dynamic assignment and micro-simulation and model design and specification
Agent and Activity Based Modelling
Modelling new modes and services
