Properties and options of transport systems

Element	Description
Code	Code of the transport system
Name	Name of the transport system
Type	Type of transport system PrT PuT PuTWalk PuTAux Sharing
PCU	Only for transport systems of the type PrT Number of passenger car units per vehicle of the PrT transport system The value indicates the effect of the volume of a vehicle of a PrT transport system.
Simulation-based assignment (SBA)	Only for transport systems of the type PrT For the following attributes, you can enter values for the simulation-based dynamic assignment. SBA reaction time Temporal distance between a vehicle and the effective rear edge of the vehicle in front SBA effective vehicle length Distance between the front edges of two consecutive vehicles stuck in traffic SBA maximum wait time Time that a vehicle waits at a node on a subordinate turn
Sharing section	Only for transport systems of type Sharing Station-bound If the option is checked, the vehicle does not have to be returned at the station where it was picked up. Each other station of the system can also be used as return station. Station-bound (Roundtrip system) If the option is checked, the vehicle must be returned at the station where it was picked up. Free-floating system If the option is checked, the selected vehicle can be parked and returned outside of Sharing stations. Has fixed booking period If the option is checked, the customer defines the length of the car rental in advance. Average daily rentals Average frequency of rentals for each vehicle within 24 hours Note This option is only provided if option Has fixed booking period has not been checked. Average daily rental duration Mean duration of a rental per vehicle within 24 hours Example: 5h means that each vehicle is rented for 5 out of 24 hours on average Note This option is only available if the Has fixed booking period option has been checked. Allows relocations If the option is checked, the operator may exchange vehicles between Sharing stations to achieve an optimal occupancy. Use the input field Maximum number of relocated vehicles per hour to enter the number of vehicles that can be relocated network-wide within an hour (Fundamentals: Relocation procedure). Has vehicle depot Note This option is provided only if the option Allows relocations has been selected. If the option is checked, a depot exists for the Sharing system in which vehicles can be retained that are not based at Sharing stations. Use the input field Number of vehicles to enter the total number of vehicles for the Sharing system. The total number includes all vehicles at the stations of the system plus the vehicles in the depot. Note If a depot exists, vehicles from the depot can be used for relocations. No vehicle has to be transported from one station to another in this case, and a vehicle from the depot can be used instead. Occupancy rate Number of persons present on average in the rented vehicle This number is required to convert PuT passengers to vehicles.
Attributes	Transfer network attributes from If you select this option, you can specify a reference transport system. Visum checks the network objects that have been allocated to the reference transport system via TSysSet. Then it allocates these network objects to the new transport system. Attributes which relate to the transport system are also transferred: for example VMax_PrTSys on a PrT link type, VDef_PuTSys on a PuT link type and T_PuTSys on a PuT link. That means: The link types, turns, connectors, etc. which are open for the reference transport system are also open for this transport system. All transport systems of the same type are available as reference transport system. Additionally, for the PuT transport system type, all transport systems of the PuT-Aux type are available. For PuT-Aux transport systems, any existing transport systems of the PuT type are available. For Sharing transport systems, any transport systems of the PrT type are available. Enter only link type attributes If you select this option, you can specify the link types that are open for this transport system. Besides, for PrT you specify the maximum speed (VMax PrT) and for PuT the mean speed (v PuT) for the link types. Default values by link type vMax PrT Only for transport systems of the type PrT Maximum speed of the PrT transport system v PuT Only for transport systems of the types PuT, PuTWalk, PuTAux and Sharing Mean speed of the PuT transport system Permitted for link type Use the list to select the link types on which the transport system shall be permitted.
