Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Application of Combined Model for Tehran Metropolitan Area Incorporating Captive Travel BehaviorShahriar A. Zargari, Morteza Araghi, Kouros MohammadianTo overcome deficiencies of the sequential transportation planning approach, this research applies a Combined Trip Distribution and Assignment Model (CTDAM) for the simultaneous prediction. The proposed combined model can itself be reformulated as an Equivalent Minimization Problem (EMP). When applying the Evans algorithm to the EMP, the CTDAM is expected to be usable in a realistic application. The objective of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,855 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplications of Conditional Value at Risk to Full Truckload Pricing Under Demand and Service Time UncertaintiesThitima Wonginta, Sompong SirisoponsilpProblem statement: Pricing is one of the fundamental management decisions required by a truckload carrier. Traditional pricing based on an average all relevant costs including fixed and variable costs is not capable of providing adequate margins that prevent losses during operation uncertainties inherent in truckload operation including demand variability and variation in service times. Approach: This study utilizes Conditional Value … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,333 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluation of Interregional Freight Generation Modelling Methods by using Nationwide Commodity Flow Survey DataWirach HirunA trip generation model is one of the four parts of the classical transport planning model, which explores the volume of trip or freight at the originating and destination points of a traffic analysis zone. The process of calibrating a trip generation model needs appropriate data. Freight transport data are always robust and a powerful calibration technique is required to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2016 · 8,107 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnalysis of Interregional Commodity FlowsWirach Hirun, Sompong SirisoponsilpProblem statement: Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) was launched to collect comprehensive freight flow data throughout the kingdom of Thailand. The survey’s database is the most complete collection of commodity flow data in Thailand. The need to reveal interregional freight characteristics using available data from the CFS led to the objectives of this research. Approach: An origin destination matrix based on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2010 · 8,922 accessesView PDF Cite
