Regional Dynamic Traffic Assignment with bounded rational drivers as a tool for assessing the emissions in large metropo...
Data-driven surveys show that drivers do not always choose the shortest-path for their travels. The ideas of bounded rationality have been used to model this behavior, and relax the main assumption of travel time minimization of the User Equilibrium principle. In this paper, we propose an extension of an existing dynamic traffic assignment framewor...
Calibration and validation of multi-reservoir MFD models: A case study in Lyon
Aggregated traffic flow models based on the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD), also known as multi-reservoir or multi-region MFD models, have been developed for more than a decade for various applications. While being very appealing for simulating traffic dynamics at a city level, the outputs of these models were rarely confronted with real dat...
On the calibration of time-varying trip length distributions for the aggregated traffic models

Estimation of regional trip length distributions for the calibration of the aggregated network traffic models
The calibration of trip lengths is an important challenge for multi-regional MFD-based applications, as it can influence the dynamics of regional densities (and speeds). Existing research has not paid significant attention in the topic, giving opportunities for answering some fundamental questions. In this paper, we propose an original methodology ...

Flow exchanges in multi-reservoir systems with spillbacks
Large-scale traffic flow models based on the Network Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) are usually grounded on the bathtub analogy and a conservation equation for vehicle accumulation inside a given urban area. Recent studies have proposed a different approach where the MFD defines the spatial mean speed that is shared by all vehicles in a regi...
