ENGR 8210:Urban Network Modeling and Optimization

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: ENGR 8120
The course objectives are for students to understand mathematical network models and optimization techniques. Upon completing the course, students should be familiar with the concepts of user equilibrium, system optimum, and heuristic algorithms. Students should be able to develop demand generation, trip distribution, modal split, and traffic assignment models for urban networks. The student will leave the class with mathematical programming skills that have wide applications in the network modeling field.
