Characteristics of Trip Generation and Attraction Based on Complex Network Theory

Publication: International Conference on Transportation Engineering 2007

Abstract

To analyze the characteristics of the network of trip generation and attraction, this paper constructed the topological network of trip generation and attraction of the urban traffic zones based on complex network theory, and then studied the characteristics of the complex network are studied. Ruian, a Chinese city was selected for case study area, and the geometric characters of the topologic network were analyzed in detail. The results show that this network has the same characteristics as many other complex networks. The reason of this phenomenon was then discussed. This paper is important for the research of people clustering, the rules of travel demand generation and evolution, as well as land use planning and travel demand forecasting based on such kind of rules.
