Abstract:

This paper proposes a non-holding back linear programming (NHBLP) model embedding the cell transmission model (CTM), the basis of which refers to Ziliaskopoulos (2000), to account for the system optimum dynamic traffic assignment problems. The first part of the paper elaborates on the model’s properties which explicitly address most of the limitations from Ziliaskopoulos’s (2000) formulation while preserving the linear nature of the objective function and constraints by introducing the effortless implementable scheme of penalty label for the network. Rigorous proof is presented, complemented with the marginal cost analysis, to show that the optimal solution of the NHBLP formulation completely resolves the unrealistic holding-back issue. The second part of the paper demonstrates the properties of the NHBLP formulation with various test networks. A test network demonstrates the ability to test the route choice behavior in an accident scenario.
