Abstract

The identification of critical links in a network has been studied in the literature, and different approaches were proposed. Most methods that analyzed critical links were based on static traffic assignment. The purpose of this paper is to find critical links in a transportation network, using existing methods in the literature. The novelty of the paper is by comparing two different methods to detect critical links. The first method will apply dynamic traffic assignment and the second will apply betweenness centrality. The methods were applied to a real network, and the results indicate that the BC measure can be used as a proxy for detection of critical network links.
