Dynamic user equilibrium (DUE) is the most widely studied form of dynamic traffic assignment, in which road travelers engage in a non-cooperative Nash-like game with departure time and route choices. DUE models describe and predict the time-varying traffic flows on a network consistent with traffic flow theory and travel behavior. This paper documents theoretical and numerical advances in synthesizing traffic flow theory and DUE modeling, by presenting a holistic computational theory of DUE with numerical implementation encapsulated in a MATLAB software package. In particular, the dynamic network loading (DNL) sub-problem is formulated as a system of differential algebraic equations based on the fluid dynamic model, which captures the formation, propagation and dissipation of physical queues as well as vehicle spillback on networks. Then, the fixed-point algorithm is employed to solve the DUE problems on several large-scale networks. We make openly available the MATLAB package, which can be used to solve DUE problems on user-defined networks, aiming to not only help DTA modelers with benchmarking a wide range of DUE algorithms and solutions, but also offer researchers a platform to further develop their own models and applications. Updates of the package and computational examples are available at https://github.com/DrKeHan/DTA.
