TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Gravity models for dynamic transport planning: Development and implementation in urban networks JO - Journal of transport geography A1 - Tsekeris, Theodore A1 - Stathopoulos, Antony SP - 152 EP - 160 VL - 14 IS - 2 N2 - This paper describes the development and comparison through a real-life implementation of dynamic extensions of the entropy-based gravity model of trip distribution for dynamic transport planning purposes in urban networks. The single dynamic gravity model (SDGM) accounts only for the inter-period (long-term) evolution of travel demand. The doubly dynamic gravity model (DDGM) takes into account both the inter-period and intra-period (short-term or within-day) evolution of travel demand. The computational analysis and explanation of the differences between the two models are demonstrated in relation to different demand inputs, model parameters and performance measures.
