A STOCHASTIC TRANSIT ASSIGNMENT MODEL FOR MULTI-CLASS USERS

This paper proposes a stochastic user equilibrium assignment model for congested transit networks with multi-class users. The corresponding equivalent mathematical programming problem is formulated, where the different perception of various user classes such as workers and shoppers on the path travel time is considered. An iterative algorithm is also put forward. Finally, an example is given to show that the proposed model and solution algorithm are rational and effective.
