... 7Overview of DynusT–FAST-TrIPs Integrated Model 2.1 DynusT 2.1.1 DynusT Model Structure As shown in Figure 2.1, DynusT consists of iterative inter­ actions between its two main modules, traffic simulation and traffic assignment. Vehicles are created and loaded into the network based on their respective origins and follow a spe­ cific route based on their intended destinations.
From page 8...
... 8For modeling purposes, the speed­influencing region for vehicle i (SIRi) is defined as vehicle i's immediate downstream roadway section in which the stimulus is significant enough to influence vehicle i's speed response.

... 9 of resemblance with car­following–based microscopic mod­ els. The major difference between AMS and car­following models is that in AMS, a vehicle's speed adjustment at each simulation time interval is governed by the SIR density ki t , which is a macroscopic measure of all the vehicles present in the SIR region, instead of an intervehicle measure between the target and the leading vehicle(s)

... 11 schedule network is prepared. The basic unit of the LBTE transit network is defined on each link, which connects two consecutive stop time runs by an identical transit vehicle.

... 12 capture the behavior of passengers and their interaction with transit vehicles. The first module captures the access, egress, and transfer behavior of passengers and is a time­based simu­ lation over fixed time intervals.

... 13 for the assignment and simulation of auto and public transit vehicles. The auto and transit vehicles assignment is run to completion before any input to FAST­TrIPs is generated.
