mobility

[tomfid@MIT.EDU (Tom Fiddaman)]

Peter Allen at Cranfield in the UK has done some very interesting spatially
disaggregated urban models (of Brussels, I think), that may be relevant to
your interests. Mobility wasnt the focus, but was an important component.
I dont have contact information at my fingertips, but there are links to
some of his work in the spatial dynamic modeling section of my web links
pages, http://web.mit.edu/tomfid/www/bookmarks.html. Good luck.

Hello everybody !

I am a PhD student who wants to apply the System Dynamics Methodology in
order to understand the problem of mobility in big cities. How can we find
a solution for the trafficjam in the long term ?
I am already quite far in understanding the SD Methodology but havent found
any articles on this specific problem. Can anybody help me ? Has anyone
made a model on mobility ?

Thank you very much in advance.
