Abstract:

Mode choice models have, in the past, been disaggregated by a range of work and personal trip purposes. Linear expressions have been developed describing the utility or generalised cost of each transport mode option within each trip purpose category. With improving data collection, storage and processing facilities, highly disaggregate models are finding wider application in mode choice modelling. Disaggregate mode choice models developed thus far have not explicitly defined visitor mode choice and have therefore assumed that visitors' mode choice characteristics are similar to those of res

Abstract:

Transport planning relies extensively on forecasts of traveller behaviour over horizons of 20 years and more. Implicit in such forecasts is the assumption that travellers tastes, as represented by the behavioural model parameters, are constant over time. This assumption is referred to as the temporal transferability of the models. This thesis presents four main contributions in this area. First, a comprehensive review of the transferability literature in the context of the temporal transferability of mode-destination models. This review demonstrated that there is little evidence about the tran

Abstract:

This thesis contributes to the literature on the choice of transport mode for commuting trips, with special focus on the difference between urban and rural commuting in Scotland. The thesis begins by giving an overview of discrete choice theory and some empirical models consistent with this theory, before reviewing the literature on empirical applications of mode choice models for commuting trips. In the following, multinomial, nested and mixed logit models using data from a survey of commuters in the University of St Andrews are developed. The models are used to estimate aggregate mode-choice

Abstract:

The aim of this research was to construct a freight mode choice model, from the perspective of New Zealand freight shippers, identifying the possibility of mode substitution effects. Shipper’s freight modal choice depends on freight demand and infrastructure as well as the quality of service characteristics of alternative modes, such as transport cost, delivery time, reliability, damage and loss and frequency of service. Freight logistics characteristics, such as the attributes of the shipper, the attributes of the commodities to be transported, and the spatial attributes of shipments, stron

Abstract:

The car is the most popular travel mode in the UK, but reliance on the car has numerous negative effects on health, the economy, and the environment. Encouraging sustainable travel mode choices (modal choice) can minimise these problems. To promote behaviour change, psychologists have an interest in understanding modal choice. Historically, modal choice has been understood as a reasoned and rational decision that requires a conscious assessment of thoughts and attitudes: but evidence suggests this approach has limitations when promoting behaviour change. Alternatively, processes that are autom

Abstract:

For a number of reasons--congestion, public health, greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, demographic shifts, and community livability to name a few--the importance of walking and bicycling as transportation options will only continue to increase. Currently, policy interest and infrastructure funding for nonmotorized modes far outstrip our ability to model bike and walk travel. To ensure scarce resources are used most effectively, accurate models sensitive to key policy variables are needed to support long-range planning and project evaluation, and to continue adding to our growing understandi

Abstract:

The financial and environmental effects of traffic congestion and automobile-centric air pollution continue to be problems that must be addressed within the United States. In response, travel demand management (TDM) has emerged as a potential way to reduce automobile-based travel in order to minimize these effects. TDM strategies are highly dependent on specific urban form characteristics such as bicycle lanes, sidewalks, or transit facilities. A current gap exists in the analytical tools available to transportation planners when evaluating TDM projects. The standard transportation models do n

Abstract:

There has been a noticeable swing towards school pupils being driven to and from school, and away from active modes like walking and cycling, in recent decades. This has had a number of side effects. Less reliance on active modes of transport has been a contributing factor in the reducing levels of physical activity for school children. Traffic volumes associated with school trips have also increased. This increased has tended to contribute to an increase in traffic congestion, adverse environmental effects and reductions in levels of sustainability. School trip traffic contributes specificall

Discrete choice models form a class of models widely used in econometrics for modelling the individual choice from a finite set of alternatives.

Abstract:

Die vorliegende Arbeit besteht aus vier Aufsätzen, die sich mit der Modellierung von Markenwahlverhalten und Markentreue beschäftigen. Der erste Aufsatz gibt eine Einführung in das Nested Logit Modell und weist auf die Existenz von zwei unterschiedlichen Spezifikationen hin. Das utility maximization nested logit (UMNL) und das non-normalized nested logit (NNNL) Modell besitzen unterschiedliche Eigenschaften, die die Schätzergebnisse beeinflussen. Mit einer Simulationsstudie werden die Konsequenzen der Verwendung verschiedener Softwarepakete demonstriert. Außerdem wird gezeigt, dass nur die UMN

Abstract:

Depuis quelques années un engouement pour les méthodes de modélisation bayésienne a été observé dans divers domaines comme l'environnement, la médecine. Les études en recherche clinique s'appuient sur la modélisation mathématique et l'inférence statistique. Le but de cette thèse est d'étudier les applications possibles d'une telle modélisation dans le cadre de la recherche clinique. En effet, les jugements, les connaissances des experts (médecins, biologistes..) sont nombreux et importants. Il semble donc naturel de vouloir prendre en compte toutes ces connaissances a priori dans le modèle sta

Abstract:

The importance of strategy to an organisation's competitiveness is widely acknowledged in the strategic management literature. However, although strategy research has become substantial in other areas, the same cannot be said with the shipping industry. Very littie is known about how shipowners choose competitive strategies or what strategies they pursue under certain environmental conditions. Of what is available, most focus on Northern Europe and Northem America, with scant regard for the Asia-Pacific, which has become a major shipping power in recent decades. This study was, therefore, cond

Abstract:

Stochastic User Equilibrium (SUE) models allow the representation of the perceptual and preferential differences that exist when drivers compare alternative routes through a transportation network. However, as an effect of the used choice models, conventional applications of SUE are based on the assumption that all available routes have a positive probability of being chosen, however unattractive. In this paper, a novel choice model, the Bounded Choice Model (BCM), is presented along with network conditions for a corresponding Bounded SUE. The model integrates an exogenously-defined bound on t

Abstract:

The process of containerization has connected the world with a cost-effective freight service, successfully forming a competitive global market. Mixed freight shipping has changed dramatically due to containerization and globalization. The port system has experienced a tough time keeping pace with globalisation in terms of its roles and functions in liner shipping. Consequently, port choice has become a challenging problem to analyse with many stakeholders and complex circumstances. The literature formulating the basis of this maritime container assignment model can be identified as a combinat

Abstract:

This project was a step forward in developing the scientific basis for a method to investigate mode choice/change in natural disasters using the 2011 Brisbane floods as a case study. Statistical models were developed on characteristics affecting traveller’s behavioural changes in times of natural disasters. Understating travellers' modal change is key when identifying methods to efficiently and effectively manage transport networks in times of disaster, specially during a flood event. The proposed framework adopted within this research represents a significant innovation and contribution to k
