Field of Competence System Dynamics
Basics
The Research Unit Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering can look back on a long tradition of theoretical and practical work based on the principles of System Dynamics.
Portfolio simulation models
Since the late 1990ies members of the Research Unit Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering developed and programmed several operational System Dynamics based simulation models.
- Integrated simulation of the interaction between land use and Transport – MARS:
Executive summary, Link - Multimodal simulation of the demand for vacation and business long distance trips – LUNA: Executive summary, Link
- Simulation of the development of market shares of alternative propulsion technologies - SERAPIS: Executive summary, Link
- Simulation of direct and indirect rebound-effects in the sectors personal mobility, appliances and heating/climatization - URANUS: Executive summary, Link
