THE SPACE-AVERAGING OF DETERRENT FUNCTIONS FOR USE IN GRAVITY MODEL DISTRIBUTION CALCULATIONS

IN TRANSPORTATION CALCULATIONS THE GEOGRAPHICAL REGION OF INTEREST IS COMMONLY SUB-DIVIDED INTO ZONES BUT IT IS DESIRABLE THAT THE MODELS OF THE VARIOUS PARTS OF THE TRANSPORTATION PROCESS SHOULD NOT BE RESTRICTED BY ANY SUCH ZONE SYSTEM. THE CONSEQUENCES OF REQUIRING THIS INDEPENDENCE AND THE RESULTS OF NOT SO DOING ARE EXAMINED FOR THE GRAVITY MODEL OF TRIP DISTRIBUTION
