Zusammenfassung:With contributions by transportation experts from around the world, this book compiles engineering data and methods for solving problems in the planning, design, construction, and operation of various transportation modes into one source. It illustrates analytical simulation methods that depict human behavior in a realistic way, and many of its chapters emphasize newly developed and previously unpublished simulation methods. The handbook demonstrates how urban and regional planning, geography, demography, economics, sociology, ecology, psychology, business, operations management, and engineering come together to help us plan for better futures that are human-centered. The text reviews projects from an initial problem statement to final policy action and associated decision-making and examines policies at all levels of government, from the city to the national levels. Transportation systems planning extends far beyond modeling in engineering and economics to present a transdisciplinary approach to transportation systems planning.
