Shared mobility can provide access to transportation on a custom basis without vehicle ownership. The advent of connected and automated vehicle technologies can further enhance the potential benefits of shared mobility systems. Although the…
Shared rides are often considered to be a promising travel alternative that could efficiently pool people together while offering a door-to-door service. Notwithstanding, even though demand distribution patterns are expected to greatly…
In recent years, we have witnessed a remarkable surge of usage in shared vehicles in our cities. Shared mobility offers a future of no congestion in busy city roads with increasing populations of travelers, passengers, and drivers. Given…
In this paper, we contrast parametric and semi-parametric representations of unobserved heterogeneity in hierarchical Bayesian multinomial logit models and leverage these methods to infer distributions of willingness to pay for features of…
Shared autonomous electric vehicles can provide on-demand transportation for passengers while also interacting extensively with the electric distribution system. This interaction is especially beneficial after a disaster when the large…
Vehicle (bike or car) sharing represents an emerging transportation scheme which may comprise an important link in the green mobility chain of smart city environments. This chapter offers a comprehensive review of algorithmic approaches for…
Concepts of Mobility-on-Demand (MOD) and Mobility as a Service (MaaS), which feature the integration of various shared-use mobility options, have gained widespread popularity in recent years. While these concepts promise great benefits to…
Travel time in urban centers is a significant contributor to the quality of living of its citizens. Mobility on Demand (MoD) services such as Uber and Lyft have revolutionized the transportation infrastructure, enabling new solutions for…
We propose a ridesharing strategy with integrated transit in which a private on-demand mobility service operator may drop off a passenger directly door-to-door, commit to dropping them at a transit station or picking up from a transit…
We consider ride-sharing networks served by human-driven vehicles (HVs) and autonomous vehicles (AVs). We propose a model for ride-sharing in this mixed autonomy setting for a multi-location network in which a ride-sharing platform sets…
Connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) promise to enhance safety, efficiency, and sustainability in urban transportation. However, this is contingent upon a CAV correctly predicting the motion of surrounding agents and planning its own motion…
Fleets of autonomous vehicles (AV) often are at the core of intelligent transportation scenarios for smart cities, and may require a wireless Internet connection to offload computer vision tasks to data centers located either in the edge or…
Carsharing is a model of renting vehicles for short periods of time, where the payment is made according to the time and distance effectively traveled. Carsharing offers a simple, economical and smart alternative to urban mobility, that is…
This paper studies the benefits of autonomous vehicles in ride-sharing platforms dedicated to serving commuting needs. It considers the Commute Trip Sharing Problem with Autonomous Vehicles (CTSPAV), the optimization problem faced by a…
Car sharing is expected to reduce traffic congestion and pollution in cities while at the same time improving accessibility to public transport. However, the most popular form of car sharing, one-way car sharing, still suffers from the…
We envision a multimodal transportation system where Mobility-on-Demand (MoD) service is used to serve the first mile and last mile of transit trips. For this purpose, the current research formulates an optimization model for designing an…
As efficient traffic-management platforms, public vehicle (PV) systems are envisioned to be a promising approach to solving traffic congestions and pollutions for future smart cities. PV systems provide online/dynamic peer-to-peer…
This paper studies models for Autonomous Micromobility-on-Demand (AMoD), a paradigm in which a fleet of autonomous vehicles delivers mobility services on demand in conjunction with micromobility systems. Specifically, we introduce a network…
The increasing rate of urbanization has added pressure on the already constrained transportation networks in our communities. Ride-sharing platforms such as Uber and Lyft are becoming a more commonplace, particularly in urban environments.…
Autonomous Vehicle (AV) technology is advancing rapidly, promising a significant shift in road transportation safety and potentially resolving various complex transportation issues. With the increasing deployment of AVs by various…
