Degradable transportation systems: An integrated equilibrium model

This paper discusses the need for analysis of transportation systems whose components are subject to degradation, and describes an integrated equilibrium model for a large scale, multi-mode degradable transportation system. The existence, uniqueness and stability of the solutions are discussed. Use of the model, to identify the socio-economic impacts of system degradation, the critical components and system reliability, is also discussed.
