An Equilibrium Ride Model for Subway Passengers with Arrival Early Penalty

Abstract

Abstract: This paper deals with the travel behavior for commuters who take subway from living places to work places during matutinal rush hour. An equilibrium model that incorporates the costs for early arrival and congestion in carriages is proposed. In the elastic demand case，the fare level and train headway or frequency are compared respectively，which derived from standpoints of system optimum and subway profit maximization.

Key words: travel behavior, equilibrium model, cost for early arrival, congestion cost in carriage, elastic demand

摘要： 研究早晨高峰期内出行者由郊区住处乘地铁到达市中心工作地的交通行为，所建立的均衡选择模型考虑了早到成本和车内拥挤成本，得到了固定需求下的最优发车间隔，在弹性需求下比较了系统最优和地铁公司净利润最大化两种不同政策所导致的地铁票价和出行分布.
