Regulating competition between transit and ride-hailing with transit priority zones

The thriving ride-hailing (RH) industry over the last decade provides passengers with flexible mobility options but also stimulates discussions about the possible cannibalization of public transport (PT) ridership. To foster PT and improve system efficienc ...

GreenEVT: Greensboro Electric Vehicle Testbed

Nils Gustav Nilsson

The ongoing electrification of the transportation fleet will increase the load on the electric power grid. Since both the transportation network and the power grid already experience periods of significant stress, joint analyses of both infrastructures wil ...

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 ...

Cohomology in singular blocks of parabolic category O

Jonathan Gruber

We determine the dimensions of Ext -groups between simple modules and dual generalized Verma modules in singular blocks of parabolic versions of category O for complex semisimple Lie algebras and affine Kac-Moody algebras. ...

Optimal Design Operation Strategies of a Hyperloop Transportation System

Denis Tudor

In the last decades, transportation demand growth has played a major role in the increase of global CO2 footprint. At the same time, a number of countries have scheduled measurable and substantial cutback of CO2 emissions by 2050. As the transportation sec ...

Cycling Interaction Rituals in the Conflict against the Car. From the Bike Subculture to the City Scale and Beyond

Alexandre André Robert Rigal

Mobility scholars have long been interested in challenging the automobile's hegemony in the street, particularly by highlighting how to develop urban cycling. The article contributes to this task by explaining how one type of conflict between the bike and ...

Optimizing the utilization of existing vehicle flows in last-mile passenger transport and logistics systems

Patrick Stefan Adriaan Stokkink

The new era of shared economy has raised our expectations to make mobility more sustainable through better utilization of existing resources and capacity. In this thesis, we focus on the design of transport systems that stimulate multi-purpose trips with t ...

A general framework to evaluate different rebalancing operations strategies in one-way car sharing systems

Michel Bierlaire, Selin Ataç, Nikola Obrenovic

Car sharing systems (CSSs) are one of the environmentally beneficial solutions in urban transportation. However, the operators still struggle to make these systems profitable. One of the main contributors in operational cost is rebalancing operations. Ther ...

On minimal tilting complexes in highest weight categories

Jonathan Gruber

We explain the construction of minimal tilting complexes for objects of highest weight categories and we study in detail the minimal tilting complexes for standard objects and simple objects. For certain categories of representations of complex simple Lie ...

Ride-sharing with inflexible drivers in the Paris metropolitan area

Patrick Stefan Adriaan Stokkink

In ride-sharing, commuters with similar itineraries share a vehicle for their trip. Despite its clear benefits in terms of reduced congestion, ride-sharing is not yet widely accepted. We propose a specific ride-sharing variant, where drivers are completely ...

Assessment of the Bus Transit Network: A Perspective from the Daily Activity-Travel Organization of Travelers

Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

In a context where daily car use is a spontaneous and habitual choice for a wide majority of the population, the quality of the alternatives to individual motorized vehicles is a major factor in encouraging modal shift. The ease of access to public transpo ...

Cortical sensory processing across motivational states during goal-directed behavior

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Sami El-Boustani, Johannes Maria Mayrhofer

Behavioral states can influence performance of goal-directed sensorimotor tasks. Yet, it is unclear how altered neuronal sensory representations in these states relate to task performance and learning. We trained water-restricted mice in a two-whisker disc ...

Modeling and optimization of dedicated bus lanes space allocation in large networks with dynamic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Anastasios Kouvelas, Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Dedicated bus lanes provide a low cost and easily implementable strategy to improve transit service by minimizing congestion-related delays. Identifying the best spatial distribution of bus-only lanes in order to maximize traffic performance of an urban ne ...

Spherical birational sheets in reductive groups

Filippo Ambrosio

We classify the spherical birational sheets in a complex simple simply-connected algebraic group. We use the classification to show that, when G is a connected reductive complex algebraic group with simply-connected derived subgroup, two conjugacy classes ...

Individual changes in the bicycle community workshops, A typology from a new agent of socialization

Alexandre André Robert Rigal

Social change is at the center of solutions to the problems of the environment. Yet social change is sometimes elusively described. Through empirical inquiries guided by socialization theories, the present article aims to identify different types of indivi ...

Empirical analysis of large-scale multimodal traffic with multi-sensor data

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng

Recent advances in the network-level traffic flow modelling provide an efficient tool for analyzing traffic performance of large-scale networks. A relationship between density and flow at the network level is developed and widely studied, namely the macros ...

Methodologies for understanding and improving pedestrian mobility

Michel Bierlaire, Marija Nikolic, Riccardo Scarinci, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux, Yuki Oyama, Zhengchao Wang

Pedestrian mobility is at the center of urban transportation systems. Therefore, understanding it is a necessary task to improve the mobility in cities. However, pedestrian mobility is extremely complex, and advance methods are needed to capture its dynami ...

Between Hospitality and Inhospitality: The Janus-Faced 'Arrival Infrastructure'

Luca Giovanni Pattaroni, Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon, Maxime Carl Felder, Marie Hannah Florence Trossat, Joan Stavo-Debauge

Although ‘arrival infrastructure’ is central to the experience of migrants arriving in a new city, is it sufficient to form a ‘hospitable milieu’? Our article compares newcomers’ experiences with ‘arrival infrastructure’ in two European cities: Brussels an ...

Dynamic lane restrictions on congested arterials

Nikolaos Geroliminis

Buses operating in mixed traffic experience problems with delay and travel time variability in peak periods. Numerous transit priority measures are found in the literature but most rely on separating buses from other vehicles. Complete separation such as d ...

Optimization-based Control, Estimation, and Identification of Urban Road Transport Systems

Isik Ilber Sirmatel

Urbanization intensifies as a global trend, exposing transportation networks to ever increasing levels of congestion. As network usage increases with available infrastructure, building new roads is not a solution. Design of intelligent transportation syste ...
