ECTS	5

Educational goal:

Acquiring basic knowledge in the field of mathematical traffic demand models, network models and software package application in the field of traffic planning and traffic study elaborations for the needs of spatial and urban plans, general and brief projects, reconstruction feasibility studies, and building traffic infrastructure and passenger and cargo terminals.

Educational outcome:

Creating of network models, application of demand models and output of simulation through software programmes in the elaboration of short-term development programmes and long-term traffic plans, elaboration of programme conditions for road design and elaboration of feasibility studies.

Course content:

System analysis – approach and notions, methodological assumptions in the planning process. Methodology in the transportation planning process – transportation planning within spatial and urban planning, managing function in the transportation planning process. Models – general notions, mathematical models, model development and application. Transport demand models – origins of transport demands: basic types of traffic generation and attraction models. Spatial traffic distribution models. Growth factor models, gravity models, probability models. Models for modes and presentation of traffic distribution. Models for the distribution of flows into networks. Network models.

Teaching methods:

Lectures and practice. During the course, students should complete at the most two papers which solve practical problems in traffic planning. On passing the partial examination, students are not obligated to take a part of the final examination.
