18 Jul 2017 | | Abstract: | In this paper, we propose a methodology that bears close resemblance to the
Fourier analysis of the first harmonic to study networks subjected to pendular
behavior. In this context, pendular behavior is characterized by the phenomenon
of people’s dislocation from their homes to work in the morning and people’s
dislocation in the opposite direction in the afternoon. Pendular behavior is a
relevant phenomenon that takes place in public transport networks because it
may reduce the overall efficiency of the system as a result of the asymmetric
utilization of the system in different directions. We apply this methodology to
the bus transport system of Brasilia, which is a city that has commercial and
residential activities in distinct boroughs. We show that this methodology can
be used to characterize the pendular behavior of this system, identifying the
most critical nodes and times of the day when this system is in more severe
demanded. | | Source: | arXiv, 1708.6739 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
