A demand management and frequency settings model for complying to the COVID-19 capacity limits in public transport operations

Description:

This repository contains the software code and the documentation of a model that sets the frequencies of public transport lines and derives the Pareto optimal demand management strategies considering the pandemic-imposed vehicle capacities due to COVID-19.

Referencing:

In case you use this code for scientific purposes, you can cite the paper "A demand management and frequency settings model for complying to the COVID-19 capacity limits in public transport operations" once it is publicly available.
