交通冲突技术在ETC安全评价中的应用研究

由于数据缺乏,国内外有关ETC对交通安全影响的评价研究开展甚少。ETC系统对交通安全究竟会产生怎样的影响,如何进行分析评价,是一个全新的课题。作者参考了其它交通设施的安全评价方法并结合我国交通安全管理的实际情况,得出了仅运用事故统计数据模型来评价ETC对收费区安全水平的影响是欠可靠的这一结论,确定采用以非事故间接评价方法暨交通冲突技术对ETC安全进行评价。本文旨在确立ETC系统的安全评价方法并搭建其评价框架,着重探讨了如何在收费区引入交通冲突技术。

Nonlinear pricing in linear cities with elastic demands

Nonlinear road pricing charges each traveler based on his/her trip’s corresponding particular attribute level. In order to help authorities in designing road pricing systems at a strategic level, this paper attempts to address two fundamental questions: (i) what is the value of pricing’s nonlinearity for mitigating traffic congestion? (ii) if a nonlinear toll function is implemented, should it be convex, concave or other shape? Specifically, we consider distance-based pricing in linear cities. For linear monocentric cities with heterogeneous travelers, we show that the system optimal distance-based pricing indeed exhibits nonlinearity. It is proved that: (i) the cost-based system optimal toll function is monotonically increasing and concave with respect to the traveled distance; (ii) the time-based system optimal toll function always exists and is unique. If the initial proportion of each traveler group is invariant along a corridor and the demand function is of exponential type, then the time-based system optimal toll function enables the travelers, living further away from a city center, to face a lower toll level per unit distance. For a linear polycentric city, we demonstrate: (i) there always exists the system optimal differentiated (in terms of city centers) toll functions; (ii) it is highly possible that the system optimal non-differentiated toll function does not exist. Hence, we further propose an optimal toll design model, prove the Lipschitz continuity of its objective and adopt a global-optimization algorithm to solve it.     

高速路网不停车收费车道优化布设方法

合理设置高速公路收费站ETC (Electronic Toll Collection)车道数量，对高速公路通行效率至关重要。针对目前路网中ETC与MTC (Manual Toll Collection)车辆混行的情况，考虑ETC的普及率，结合多用户路网均衡模型和排队论方法，建立基于双层规划模型的高速路网ETC车道优化布设方法。上层模型以车辆总通行时间最小为目标，优化设置进出收费站的ETC车道数量；下层模型为多用户路网均衡模型，反映ETC和MTC车辆的路径和收费车道选择行为。下层模型通过设计收费站的等价拓扑结构，表征收费站的车道使用规则及车辆的收费车道选择行为，并采用排队论方法估计ETC和MTC车道的收费排队时间。根据模型的特点设计了基于主动集的启发式算法，利用参数二进制与拉格朗日函数法确定迭代下降方向，解决了下降方向与步长难以计算的问题；通过内嵌优化函数的方式，保证在主动集转化过程中上层约束均不会失效，且避免了迭代过程中的模型解退化问题。基于上海市绕城高速进行实证分析，结果表明：随着ETC普及率的提升，收费排队时长按照负指数趋势下降；与按比例布设ETC车道的方法相比，所提方法最高可降低57.4%的收费排队时间，且该方法可以避免ETC车道布设过多对于MTC车道通行能力挤压造成的负面效果。研究成果可以有效指导高速路网ETC车道的布设，提高路网通行效率。     

Second best toll and capacity optimisation in networks: solution algorithm and policy implications

This paper looks at the first and second best jointly optimal toll and road capacity investment problems from both policy and technical oriented perspectives. On the technical side, the paper investigates the applicability of the constraint cutting algorithm for solving the second best problem under elastic demand which is formulated as a bilevel programming problem. The approach is shown to perform well despite several problems encountered by our previous work in Shepherd and Sumalee (Netw. Spat. Econ., 4(2): 161–179, 2004). The paper then applies the algorithm to a small sized network to investigate the policy implications of the first and second best cases. This policy analysis demonstrates that the joint first best structure is to invest in the most direct routes while reducing capacities elsewhere. Whilst unrealistic this acts as a useful benchmark. The results also show that certain second best policies can achieve a high proportion of the first best benefits while in general generating a revenue surplus. We also show that unless costs of capacity are known to be low then second best tolls will be affected and so should be analysed in conjunction with investments in the network.
