Application Of Complex Networks Theory For Transportation Infrastructure Analysis: Celaya's City Avenue Network. Rev.EIA.Esc.Ing.Antioq [online]. 2020, vol.17, n.33, pp.43-55.

The streets and avenues networks of a city form the infrastructure of land transport systems. The measures of centrality of complex networks allow to quantify the performance of each intersection of avenues or streets in the network. In this article, Celaya's city network avenues, was analyzed using the complex networks approach. From betweenness centrality, closeness centrality, diameter and average degree; we identify 5 intersections which play a fundamental role in the city's avenue network as well as its location within the city. The results are of interest for professionals dedicated to the design of logistics systems and transportation.

Keywords : Transport network; complex networks; betweenness centrality; Closeness centrality.
