Presentation Description
The uncertainties of future ADS deployment call for fast, flexible models of how the transportation system might evolve over time. System dynamics (SD) is one promising approach. Qualitative SD techniques, such as group model building to develop causal loop diagrams (CLDs), can lead to common understanding of a problem among stakeholders. Quantitative SD modeling can simulate system behavior under various scenarios. This poster focuses on the possible effects of a shared automated mobility service.
