A DYNAMIC TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT MODEL AND A SOLUTION ALGORITHM

This paper deals with the modeling of the Dynamic Traffic Assignment Problem (DTAP) which is aimed at simulating the flows of urban transportation networks, mainly at peak periods. During the past 40 years, most of the research has been concentrated on the Static Traffic Assignment Problem (STAP or simply TAP) where it is assumed that demand is constant over time. This assumption is realistic for the analysis of intercity freight transportation networks over long periods of time (as a month or a year) where the traffic flows supposedly have reached some steady state.
