Comparison of Static and Dynamic Land Use-Transport Interaction Models: Pirandello and UrbanSim Applications
Résumé
The paper addresses comparability of two urban modeling frameworks: the static equilibrium Pirandello and the dynamic disequilibrium UrbanSim. The two frameworks, though conceptually different, contain some common features in their transportation and land use models. An empirical test includes the long-term effect of an urban toll implementation in the Lyon urban area in France. The conclusion is that the static and the dynamic urban modeling frameworks, despite their fundamental differences, can generate, in most cases, comparable empirical results, which are intuitively logical and can be used for policy scenario evaluations.
