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 -

Solution concepts for the simulation of household-level joint decision making in multi-agent travel simulation tools
(2014)In the recent years, there have been a growing interest in understanding and forecasting joint travel-related decisions, that is, decisions taken by several individuals together, including binding agreements. Such forecasting would first allow to predict the impact of policies aiming at influencing this kind of behavior (for instance policies aimed at increasing car occupancy), but also improve the forecasts in general, by taking into ...Conference Paper -

Using a multi-agent simulation tool to estimate the car-pooling potential
(2013)TRB 92nd Annual Meeting Compendium of PapersIt is a general trend in transportation planning to try to minimize the negative externalities of the transport system as a whole, such as noise or pollutant emissions. One of the ways to achieve this is to reduce the number of cars on the roads, for instance by increasing car occupancy. This paper focuses on evaluating the potential of this possibility. The factors influencing this potential are manifold: behavioral, structural (number ...Conference Paper -

An innovative survey to study the impact of joint decisions on the characteristics of leisure activities
(2017)In the last decades, a growing body of evidences of the influence of the need for social contacts on mobility, and in particular leisure mobility, has been accumulated. The idea that explicitly considering those motives in transport models could improve forecasts is making progress. However, the actual implementation of those ideas is still difficult, in particular due to the lack of data on how do individuals plan joint activities. This ...Conference Paper -
A generalization of the MATSim simulation process to simulate the influence of social contacts spatial distribution on mobility behavior
(2015)In their daily life, individuals are frequently involved in joint decision making — situations where several individuals have to agree on the actions they will undertake to achieve a joint outcome. Examples in the context of mobility behavior include intra-household task allocation, intra-household vehicle allocation, choice of the time and venue for a dinner with friends or traveling together in the same private vehicle.Conference Paper -
