Abstract

The article presents an overview of some simulation techniques that were developed for use in a recent research effort. The objective of the research was to create a modeling system with the power to evaluate the travel-related impacts of various proposed transportation energy contingency plans, such as increased fuel taxes, reduced speed limits, mandatory vehicle modification, and so on. Traditional modeling efforts in this area have had substantial data requirements which have made their use awkward or impossible in many situations. The use of various simulation procedures in the present model has substantially reduced data requirements while maintaining a high level of forecasting capability.
