Abstract

This paper describes sensitivity analysis for a degradable transportation system, based on an integrated equilibrium model with elastic travel demand, to identify critical components and assist efforts to improve system reliability. A reliability model, involving practical measures of reliability, is also described. Algorithms for solving the reliability model are discussed.
