Elastic-demand Wardrop equilibrium

In an elastic-demand Wardrop equilibrium, demand $f_s$ responds to the minimum route delay ${\lambda }_s$ through $f_s=B_s({\lambda }_s)$. An inverse demand function supplies the utility term that must be subtracted from the Beckmann potential.

A strictly decreasing demand function has a decreasing inverse on its range. The utility primitive $\int P_s(u)du$ is a concave function. A positive interior reference value avoids assuming that an improper integral from zero is finite.
