Ulaşım ağı topolojisinin kapasite ve seyahat süresinin güvenilirliğine etkisi

Generally there are several situations that control the effectiveness of network topology. For instance, the more the number of cycles of a network, the more the network is connected even in worse conditions if discontinuity comes to some links of the network due to natural hazards. This present study aims to reveal the effect of network topology on the capacity and travel time reliability of transportation networks. Three simple network structures for a small urban areas have been compared in terms of travel time and capacity reliability by using both non- equilibrium and equilibrium assignment techniques. According to the findings obtained in this research, it was concluded that the network structure with more number of alternatives is more reliable in terms of travel times and capacity compare to other networks. Moreover, equilibrium assignment techniques particularly stochastic user equilibrium method revealed better assignment for trips.
