微观仿真在城市停车设施规划中的应用

为研究停车场规划和可达性对城市路网的影响,在世界范围内的三个不同城市应用微观仿真模型模拟停车设施规划。描述了三个城市采用的不同研究方法及得到的研究结果。三项研究都试图找到由驾驶人寻找停车位而造成的城市交通拥堵的解决方法。同时,在测试设计方案时,都使用了S-Paramics微观仿真模型。     

Using Bus Rapid Transit to Mitigate Emissions of CO2 from Transport

Abstract

This article investigates the role of bus rapid transit as a tool for mitigation of transport‐related carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. We analyse a Quality Bus Corridor (QBC) implemented in Dublin, Ireland, in 1999 and estimate CO₂ emissions associated with differing levels of bus priority for the period 1998–2003 and for the Kyoto commitment period (2008–12). Associated monetary values are established using CO₂ prices from the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme. We find that, in the absence of a QBC, peak‐time emissions for our sample population would have been 50% higher than in the factual scenario. For the Kyoto commitment period, we find the median value of the policy implementation to be in the region of [euro]650 000.
