An improved replanning strategy for congested traffic conditions in MATSim
(2020)Procedia Computer ScienceAgent-based transport models such as MATSim have been developed and used for the past few decades to simulate transportation systems in different cities and are capable of accurately reproducing travel patterns at different levels of aggregation. Given their disaggregate representation of both travel demand and supply as well as the high level of spatial and temporal detail, agent-based transport models also have the potential to allow ...Conference Paper -
Sizing a fleet of automated taxis: A demand-responsive case study for Zurich
(2018)Automated vehicle technology has reached a point where fleet services can be expected to be opened to the public in just a few years. Companies like nuTonomy and Navya are already running trials in cities around the world including Switzerland and show that their vehicles can cope with the complex situations that arise in everyday traffic.Conference Paper -

Exploring willingness to pay of urban air mobility and on-demand transport
(2020)Research presented in this paper analyzed two data sets from Revealed Preference(RP) and Stated Preference (SP), obtained with a new travel diary and mode choice survey. This survey, called Mobility Jakarta, combines both revealed and stated preference parts and was conducted in the Greater Jakarta region. This is the first survey that collected responses from a substantial sample of the population across the whole metropolitan area. We ...Conference Paper -
CH on the move
(2023)Mobility simulations are crucial for research, industry, and governance. However, sim- ulating mobility systems with reasonable accuracy requires large-scale efforts of data collection, data transformation, data analysis, and data visualization. The paradigm of the digital twin offers a novel perspective on how to manage the data efficiently and make the simulations available more steadily at a lower cost. We introduce the first prototype ...Conference Paper -
Activity rescheduling within a multi-agent transport simulation framework (MATSim)
(2017)TRB 96th Annual Meeting Compendium of PapersPeople’s desire or the need to perform certain activities during the day drives their activity- scheduling decisions. However, these decisions are dependent on the state of the transportation system, its supply and demand. The need for the tools able to deal with the kind of adaptations to the daily plans that come with these decisions, is ever growing. The introduction of new modes and services and the fast approaching era of autonomous ...Conference Paper -
Dynamic demand estimation for an AMoD system in Paris
(2019)2019 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV)A simulation framework is presented that equilibrates a given automated taxi fleet with (a) consistent prices to provide the service and (b) customer behaviour that reacts to costs and level of service alike. In a first attempt, a hypothetical AMoD service within the highway ring of Paris is considered. The “dynamic demand” case yields a demand of around 1.2M trips per day for such a service at the optimal fleet size of 25k vehicles. This ...Conference Paper -
Mobility on-demand
(2024)2024 TRB Annual Meeting Online Program ArchiveMobility on-demand services like ride-hailing, ride-sharing, and car-sharing are changing the way we travel, offering us more options and flexibility. They can be best understood and planned for by using detailed computer simulations. However, these simulations often forget about the weekends. They focus mostly on the average working day when travel is high and fairly predictable. But the way we travel has changed. Unlike the weekdays ...Conference Paper -
Synthetic population of Greater Jakarta
(2020)Agent based simulation frameworks require synthetic populations to simulate traveller’s activity travel patterns. Various methods exist for population synthesis with different advantages and disadvantages. For the Greater Jakarta area, a synthetic population has previously been generated using Bayesian Network (BN) approach and Generalized Raking (GR) multilevel IPF. This approach used very large, city level marginal to fit the population ...Conference Paper
