Abstract

In this paper we propose a new model for the equilibrium multi-modal assignment problem with combined modes (MAPCM) for the case of asymmetric costs. MAPCM is stated on a generic passenger assignment equilibrium model, on a generalized traffic assignment model, and on a nested logit distribution as demand model which explicitly takes into account the choice of mode of transport and transfer node among modal networks. This model is formulated as a variational inequality problem in the space of the hyperpath flows and then solved by the disaggregate simplicial decomposition (DSD) algorithm. Illustrations of the model and of the numerical approach are reported on two test networks with asymmetric cost functions.
