Abstract

Based on the current situation and operation of urban bus network stops, this paper uses complex network theory to analyse the topology of the constructed network. Taking the ChangZhuTan bus network as an example, the Space-L method is selected to establish a network topology model, and the topological characteristics of different networks are analysed by calculating the static indicators of the network (degree, degree distribution, average path length, clustering coefficient, etc.). The research results show that the ChangZhuTan bus network has scale-free network characteristics, but the small-world characteristics are not obvious, and the results of the indicator calculation are consistent, which provides a reference for urban transport The results show that the ChangZhuTan bus network has scale-free network characteristics, but the small-world characteristics are not obvious, and the results are consistent with the index calculation, which puts forward reference suggestions for urban transportation planning and development.
