Consider the network shown in Figure 1. The demand between nodes A and B is 160 vph
whereas the demand between A and C is 80 vph. The link travel time functions are:
Link 1: T, = 10+5v,
Link 2: T, = 30+2v,
%3D
Link 3: T, = 30+2v3
Link 4: T, = 5+ 2v,

Expert Solution
Step 1

Solution

Given data

The demand between A and B= 160 vph

The demand between A and C= 80 Vph

Step 2

Calculation

From reaching A to B two path follows

AB

ADB

So

link1= link 2 + link 3

T1=T2+T3

(10+5V1) = (30+ 2V2 )+ (30+ 2V3)

5V1=50+2V2+ 2V3

V1=10+0.4V2+0.4V3),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,(1)
