The course is carried out as a mixture of discussions, selfstudies and project work |
| Recommended semester: 4th -7th semester |
| Scope and form: Special sessions are given for english students. This involves self-study of english literature to a higher extent as for the Danish students. The responsible teacher can reject students with too few skills in transport and mathematics |
Evaluation: Oral exam and approval of reports
Two exersises in simulation models and traffic models, combined into a traffic planning project. This is defended in a oral examination |
| Examination: 13-scale |
| Previous course: C6723 |
| Prerequisites: 13110 Statistics and operations research at a university level |
| Preferred prerequisites: GIS and advanced classes in statistics and oiperations research |
| No credit points with: C6723 |
| Aim: To achieve a theoretical and practical understanding of the methods and models that are used for planning and operation of public transport |
| Contents: Infrastructure elements and special futures concerning rail traffic. Capacity, simulation and queuetheortical models for rail traffic. Introduction to tools and methods for timetable planning. Traffic and route choice models for public transport, including an introduction to stochastic utility theory and estimation routines. GIS-based methods to handling public transport network. Strategic models for the interrelationships between traffic, car-ownership and localization. Impact models for safety, time-elements, accessibility and environment. Special considerations for socioeconomic evaluation of public transport, and uncertainties in appraisals. The main focus is on mathematical simulation and traffic models. Parallel to this is solved a traffic planning project as part of the evaluation |
