Improving the understanding of mobility in cross-border areas using a pooled travel survey

Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon

Understanding mobility behaviour in cross-border regions is a major challenge for transport policies and the wellbeing of people living near national borders. However, the available relevant information is often limited to a collection of unharmonized nati ...

OASIS: An integrated optimisation framework for activity scheduling

Janody Pougala

Activity-based models offer the potential for a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. Based on the fundamental assumption that travel demand is derived from the need to do activities, they are flexible tools that aim ...

A data fusion approach for ride-sourcing demand estimation: A discrete choice model with sampling and endogeneity corrections

Michel Bierlaire

Ride-sourcing services offered by companies like Uber and Didi have grown rapidly in the last decade. Understanding the demand for these services is essential for planning and managing modern transportation systems. Existing studies develop statistical mod ...

Demand-based operations of vehicle sharing systems

Selin Ataç

Vehicle sharing systems (VSSs) allow users to rent vehicles for a short period of time, in a more flexible and convenient manner compared to the traditional vehicle rental services. The long-term VSS subscription replaces the need for contract signing for ...

Simulating intra-household interactions for in- and out-of-home activity scheduling

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Negar Rezvany

Various interactions, time arrangements, and constraints exist for individuals scheduling their day as a member of a household, which affect their in-home as well as out-of-home activity schedule. However, the existing activity-based models are mostly base ...

Large-scale traffic signal control and multimodal network design

Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Traffic congestion constitutes one of the most frequent, yet challenging, problems to address in the urban space. Caused by the concentration of population, whose mobility needs surpass the serving capacity of urban networks, congestion cannot be resolved ...

Modeling, estimation, and control in large-scale urban road networks with remaining travel distance dynamics

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Isik Ilber Sirmatel, Anastasios Kouvelas, Dimitrios Tsitsokas

City-scale control of urban road traffic poses a challenging problem. Dynamical models based on the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) enable development of model predictive perimeter control methods for large-scale urban networks, representing an advan ...

Dedicated bus lane network design under demand diversion and dynamic traffic congestion: An aggregated network and continuous approximation model approach

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mehmet Yildirimoglu

This paper proposes an integrated methodological framework to design a spatially heterogeneous bus route network and time-dependent service headways to serve travel demand that varies over time and space. Travelers choose to use either the transit mode or ...

Estimating network travel time reliability with network partitioning

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohammadreza Saeedmanesh

Network travel time reliability can be represented by a relationship between network space-mean travel time and the standard deviation of network travel time. The primary objective of this paper is to improve estimation of the network travel time reliabili ...

Dynamic Modeling of Trip Completion Rate in Urban Areas with MFD Representations

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Anastasios Kouvelas, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte, Mikhail Murashkin

A large part of the research utilizing the concept of Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) relies heavily on the PL model, an approximation of the trip completion rate derived for steady states. There exists an alternative method to the PL approximation. ...

Congestion and departure time choice equilibrium in urban road networks

Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

When drivers are regularly faced with congestion, they try to optimize their departure time. If the demand and the road network evolve slowly enough, the entire system may approach an equilibrium, i.e. a state such that no one can be better off by unilater ...

Aggregate route choice models : the mental representation item approach

Evanthia Kazagli

Route choice analysis concerns the understanding, modeling and prediction of the itinerary of an individual who travels from one position to another. In this thesis we elaborate on aggregate route choice analysis. The objective is the development of a flex ...

Network design of a transport system based on accelerating moving walkways

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Iliya Dimitrov Markov

Pollution, congestion and urbanistic considerations are leading to a change in the use of private vehicles in dense city centers. More frequently, the last-mile is covered with systems such as public transport, car sharing and bike sharing as well as an in ...

Hybrid Modeling and Predictive Control of Bus Transport Systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Isik Ilber Sirmatel

Bus operations, due to their unstable nature, are inefficient when left to their own devices. Irregularities such as bus bunching lead to loss of time and decrease bus service quality. Development of bus transport system management schemes to avoid bus bun ...

Revisiting the Route Choice Problem: A Modeling Framework Based on Mental Representations

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd, Evanthia Kazagli

We present a new approach for modeling and analyzing route choice behavior. It is motivated by the need to reduce the complexity of the state-of-the-art choice models. It is inspired by the simplifications done by the travelers, using representations of th ...

Activity choice modeling for pedestrian facilities

Antonin Danalet

This thesis develops models of activity and destination choices in pedestrian facilities from WiFi traces. We adapt the activity-based travel demand analysis of urban mobility to pedestrians and to digital footprints. We are interested in understanding the ...
