RELIABILITY OF TRANSPORT NETWORKS. CHAPTER 2. AN EMPIRICAL MODEL OF TRAVELLERS' DAY-TO-DAY LEARNING IN THE PRESENCE OF UNCERTAIN TRAVEL TIMES

Previous mathematical models of traveller learning are presented and a framework for travel time learning in a single link network was used to produce a basic learning model in the context of uncertain travel times. This was tested in a simulation laboratory experiment requiring participants to choose departure times on the basis of the information provided. The results of the model were considered broadly plausible and possible directions in which the model could be extended are discussed. For the covering abstract see ITRD E109656.
