A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns (2015)
Journal Article
Fonzone, A., Schmöcker, J.-D., & Liu, R. (2015). A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns. Transportation Research Part C : Emerging Technologies, 59, 164-182. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trc.2015.05.020

If bus service departure times are not completely unknown to the passengers, non-uniform passenger arrival patterns can be expected. We propose that passengers decide their arrival time at stops based on a continuous logit model that considers the ri...

Performance of route suggestions in networks with correlated link congestion. (2014)
Journal Article

We evaluate the performance of route suggestions which can be adopted when no real time information is available. We consider that when the available information is limited, risk-aversion, regret and disappointment may play an important role in decis...

Strategy choice in transit networks. (2013)
Journal Article
Fonzone, A., Schmoecker, J.-D., Kurauchi, F., & Hemdan, S. M. H. (2013). Strategy choice in transit networks. Journal of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, 10, 796-815

Public transport passengers are assumed to choose routes that minimise the expected travel times. In networks with high-frequency services this requires the adoption of hyperpaths. An experimental validation of the hyperpath model has been carried ou... Read More about Strategy choice in transit networks..

Areas subject to natural or man-made disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods or attacks, are reliant on the residual transport network for the rescue of survivors and subsequent recovery. Pre-disaster planning requires assumptions about how the... Read More about Depot location in degradable transport networks.
