The objective of this study is to understand the different behavioral considerations that govern the choice of people to engage in a crowd-shipping market. Using novel data collected by the researchers in the US, we develop…
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…
The mean occupancy rates of personal vehicle trips in the United States is only 1.6 persons per vehicle mile. Urban traffic gridlock is a familiar scene. Ridesharing has the potential to solve many environmental, congestion, and energy…
Ride-hailing is a sustainable transportation paradigm where riders access door-to-door traveling services through a mobile phone application, which has attracted a colossal amount of usage. There are two major planning tasks in a…
Recommending routes by their probability of having a rider has long been the goal of conventional route recommendation systems. While this maximizes the platform-specific criteria of efficiency, it results in sub-optimal outcomes with the…
Understanding user's perception of service variability is essential to discern their overall perception of any type of (transport) service. We study the perception of waiting time variability for ride-hailing services. We carried out a…
Locational measures of accessibility are widely used in urban and transportation planning to understand the impact of the transportation system on influencing people's access to places. However, there is a considerable lack of measurement…
Getting insights on human mobility patterns and being able to reproduce them accurately is of the utmost importance in a wide range of applications from public health, to transport and urban planning. Still the relationship between the…
With the prospect of next-generation automated mobility ecosystem, the realization of the contended traffic efficiency and safety benefits are contingent upon the demand landscape for automated vehicles (AVs). Focusing on the public…
Ubiquitous mobile computing have enabled ride-hailing services to collect vast amounts of behavioral data of riders and drivers and optimize supply and demand matching in real time. While these mobility service providers have some degree of…
Ride-sharing is a modern urban-mobility paradigm with tremendous potential in reducing congestion and pollution. Demand-aware design is a promising avenue for addressing a critical challenge in ride-sharing systems, namely joint…
Ridesharing has been emerging as a new type of mobility. However, the early promises of ridesharing for alleviating congestion in cities may be undermined by a number of challenges, including the growing number of proposed services and the…
Despite the plethora of research devoted to analyzing the impact of disability on travel behavior, not enough studies have investigated the varying impact of social and environmental factors on the mode choice of people with disabilities…
We are in the midst of a technology-driven transformation of the urban mobility landscape. However, unfortunately these new innovations are still dominated by car-centric personal mobility, which leads to concerns such as environmental…
The paper addresses a variant of the Dial-A-Ride problem with additional features. It is referred to as the DARP with driver preferences, which attempts to determine a solution more driver-oriented by designing a short trip in a specific…
With the emergence of e-hailing taxi services, a growing number of scholars have attempted to analyze the taxi trips data to gain insights from drivers' and passengers' flow patterns and understand different dynamics of urban public…
Ridesplitting, which is a form of pooled ridesourcing service, has great potential to alleviate the negative impacts of ridesourcing on the environment. However, most existing studies only explored its theoretical environmental benefits…
The advances in information and communication technology are changing theway people move. Companies that offer demand-responsive transportation serviceshave the opportunity to reduce their costs and increase their revenues…
In this paper, we propose a model for evaluating the transmission performance of multipath transport. Previous researches focused exclusively on single pair users in simple scenarios. The distinct perspective in this paper is to build…
The combined influence of urban heat islands, climate change, and extreme temperature events are increasingly impacting transit travelers, especially vulnerable populations such as older adults, people with disabilities, and those with…
