Safety of users in road evacuation: Modelling and DSS for demand

Abstract

The SICURO research project was developed by the Laboratory for Transport Systems Analysis (LAST). The project includes demand analysis for transportation system simulation in emergency conditions. Herein we propose the specification and calibration of generation and distribution with modal choice models. Using SP (Stated Preference) and RP (Revealed Preference) surveys. Software for demand model calibration and estimation is described, with some being used for the proposed model experimentation. © 2009 WIT Press.
