We examine how introduction of Shared Connected and Automated vehicles (SCAVs) as a new mobility mode could affect travel demand, welfare, as well as traffic congestion in the network. To do so, we adapt an agent-based day-to-day adjustment…
As electric vehicle (EV) technologies become mature, EV has been rapidly adopted in modern transportation systems, and is expected to provide future autonomous mobility-on-demand (AMoD) service with economic and societal benefits. However,…
Driven by growing concerns over air quality and energy security, electric vehicles (EVs) has experienced rapid development and are reshaping global transportation systems and lifestyle patterns. Compared to traditional gasoline-powered…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are considered as sustainable alternatives to conventional vehicles, as they reduce emission and fossil fuel dependency. A recent study has proposed a charging infrastructure planning tool to support intercity trips…
Many special events, including sport games and concerts, often cause surges in demand and congestion for transit systems. Therefore, it is important for transit providers to understand their impact on disruptions, delays, and fare revenues.…
The maintenance of big cities public transport service quality requires constant monitoring, which may become an expensive and time-consuming practice. The perception of quality, from the users point of view is an important aspect of…
This study investigates the implementation of semi-on-demand (SoD) hybrid-route services using Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAVs) on existing transit lines. SoD services combine the cost efficiency of fixed-route buses with the flexibility…
Driven by the ongoing energy transition, shared mobility service providers are emerging actors in electrical power systems which aim to shift combustion-based mobility to electric paradigm. In the meantime, Energy Communities are deployed…
We present a flexible public transit network design model which optimizes a social access objective while guaranteeing that the system's costs and transit times remain within a preset margin of their current levels. The purpose of the model…
Autonomous mobility on demand systems (AMoDS) will significantly affect the operation of coupled power distribution-urban transportation networks (PTNs) by the optimal dispatch of electric vehicles (EVs). This paper proposes an uncertainty…
Public transport networks(PTNs)are difficult to use when the user is unfamiliar with the area they are traveling to.This is true for both infrequent users(including visitors)and regular users who need to travel to areas with which they are…
Getting people cycling is an increasingly common objective in transport planning institutions worldwide. A growing evidence base indicates that high quality infrastructure can boost local cycling rates. Yet for infrastructure and other…
The potential of an efficient ride-sharing scheme to significantly reduce traffic congestion, lower emission level, as well as facilitating the introduction of smart cities has been widely demonstrated. This positive thrust however is faced…
Achieving a socially desirable operating point for a multimodal transportation system is challenging when Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand (AMoD) and Public Transit (PT) operators pursue selfish objectives alongside endogenous passenger…
The expansion of urban centers necessitates enhanced efficiency and sustainability in their transportation infrastructure and mobility systems. The big data obtainable from various transportation modes potentially offers critical insights…
Urban sensing is essential for the development of smart cities, enabling monitoring, computing, and decision-making for urban management.Thanks to the advent of vehicle technologies, modern vehicles are transforming from solely mobility…
This paper presents a model addressing welfare optimal policies of demand responsive transportation service, where passengers cause external travel time costs for other passengers due to the route changes. Optimal pricing and trip…
Transit agencies have the opportunity to outsource certain services to established Mobility-on-Demand (MOD) providers. Such alliances can improve service quality, coverage, and ridership; reduce public sector costs and vehicular emissions;…
This article emphasizes on inconsistencies in the dynamical estimates obtained by first-order transverse discontinuity mapping (TDM) and direct numerical observations for hybrid dynamical systems. Pitfalls of locally linearizing hybrid…
This study investigates the impact of transit service attributes, focusing on service frequency and on-time performance (OTP), on bus ridership in Miami-Dade County. We obtained route-level ridership from automated passenger counter (APC)…
