This paper is designed to present to the transport research community the wide existing body of work and potential future applications of the method of System Dynamics (SD) within transport research. We introduce the reader to the basic concepts of the SD method, and discuss previous reviews of academic SD papers, before setting out a systematic review on SD in transport. We find that over 400 papers have been published over the past 40 years, with over 80% in the past decade. The most popular topic is strategic and sustainable policy, but alternative fuel vehicle uptake and maritime applications have been increasingly popular over recent years. SD is also being adopted outside academia in both consultancy and governmental organisations, so we believe that this paper is a timely contribution to embedding SD as a leading emerging method within transport research, which will encourage all members of the community to consider adopting it within their toolkit.

摘要

This paper is designed to present to the transport research community the wide existing body of work and potential future applications of the method of System Dynamics (SD) within transport research. We introduce the reader to the basic concepts of the SD method, and discuss previous reviews of academic SD papers, before setting out a systematic review on SD in transport. We find that over 400 papers have been published over the past 40 years, with over 80% in the past decade. The most popular topic is strategic and sustainable policy, but alternative fuel vehicle uptake and maritime applications have been increasingly popular over recent years. SD is also being adopted outside academia in both consultancy and governmental organisations, so we believe that this paper is a timely contribution to embedding SD as a leading emerging method within transport research, which will encourage all members of the community to consider adopting it within their toolkit.
