How different charging prices can contribute to the balancing of ride-hailing services with electric vehicles

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Marko Maljkovic

Motivated by the growing popularity of both the services offered by the ride-hailing companies and the electric vehicles (EVs), we study a scenario in which a central body e.g., the government, wants to influence how the EVs of different ride-hailing compa ...

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 ...

Area-based equitable pricing strategies for multimodal urban networks with heterogeneous users

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng

Equity issues among travellers are critical in congestion pricing. Failure to treat equity can lead to low acceptability towards pricing. In this paper, we develop congestion pricing schemes to improve both equity and traffic performance, for multimodal ne ...

Pricing Electricity Through a Stochastic Non-Convex Market-Clearing Model

Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Farzaneh Abbaspourtorbati, Antonio J. Conejo

This paper proposes a pricing scheme for the day-ahead market in power systems with a large percentage of renewable stochastic production. To clear the day-ahead market, instead of a simplistic deterministic model, we use a two-stage stochastic programming ...

Assessment of positioning accuracy of vehicle trajectories for different road applications

Pierre-Yves Gilliéron, Philipp Clausen

Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) has become a kind of positioning standard due to the high penetration rate of this technology on mass market intelligent transportation systems (ITS) applications. However, this positioning technique remains a rea ...

Time-dependent area-based pricing for multimodal systems with heterogeneous users in an agent-based environment

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng, Guillaume Rérat

In this paper, we investigate an area-based pricing scheme for congested multimodal urban networks with the consideration of user heterogeneity. We propose a time-dependent pricing scheme where the tolls are iteratively adjusted through a Proportional-Inte ...

An Electrostatic Ion-guide and a High-resolution Thrust-stand for Characterization of Micro-propulsion Devices

Subha Chakraborty

Interest in microthrusters has grown significantly in the last two decades for possible applications in small satellites and deep space missions. This thesis is motivated by the need of experimental setup for characterization of microthrusters. In the firs ...

A Dynamic Network Approach for Multimodal Urban Mobility : Modeling, Pricing and Control

Nan Zheng

Recent advances in traffic flow theory at the network level, namely the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD), reveals the existence of well-defined laws of congestion dynamics at aggregated levels. The same knowledge for multimodal networks however is lim ...

Tutorial Session in: Large-scale hierarchical control for congested urban networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis

This tutorial describes methodologies to model and understand the collective behavior or different types of urban systems. It highlights under what physical properties the aggregated laws will provide reasonable description of congestion for single- and mu ...

City size, network structure and traffic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis

This paper presents an alternative approach for analyzing the relationship between land use and traffic congestion by employing the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD). The MFD is an empirically observed relationship between traffic flow and traffic dens ...

A Dynamic Cordon Pricing Scheme combining a Macroscopic and an Agent-based traffic Models

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng

Pricing is considered an effective management policy to reduce traffic congestion in transportation networks. In this paper we combine a macroscopic model of traffic congestion in urban networks with an agent-based simulator to study congestion pricing sch ...

A tractable analytical model for large-scale congested protein synthesis networks

Michel Bierlaire, Carolina Osorio Pizano

This paper presents an analytical model, based on finite capacity queueing network theory, to evaluate congestion in protein synthesis networks. These networks are modeled as a set of single server bufferless queues in a tandem topology. This model propose ...

Demands of the Road An Assisted-GNSS Solution Uses the EGNOS Data Access Service

Cyril Botteron, Jérôme Leclère

For use in billing drivers in road-user charging schemes, onboard units employing GNSS must meet stringent reliability and availability requirements, and at the same time, be based on low-cost equipment systems. The SIGNATURE unit includes an assistance se ...

An Assisted-GNSS Solution for Demanding Road Applications using the EGNOS Data Access System (EDAS)

Cyril Botteron, Jérôme Leclère

Roads right across Europe are becoming more congested and governments and regional authorities are looking for ways to better manage the existing road network. One tool that is being increasingly promoted to tackle the congestion challenge is Road User Cha ...

Mitigating network congestion : analytical models, optimization methods and their applications

Carolina Osorio Pizano

Congestion is a phenomenon that arises in a variety of contexts. The most familiar representation is urban traffic congestion. Nonetheless, phenomenons such as prison cell congestion, hospital bed blocking or, at a cellular scale, ribosome congestion, also ...

Estimation of road traffic emission factors from a long term tracer study

Alain Clappier, Luis Carlos Belalcazar Ceron, Erika Maria Zarate Torres, Minh Dung Ho

Road traffic emissions, one of the largest source categories in megacity inventories, are highly uncertain. It is essential to develop methodologies to reduce these uncertainties to manage air quality more effectively. In this paper, we propose a methodolo ...

Empirical Analysis of the Congestion Revenue Cycle in the European Electricity Market

Matthias Finger, Christof Lorenz Duthaler

In the light of the ongoing electricity market integration in Europe, the debate has turned to a more regional approach of network access. Among other things, this leads to new questions with regard to the handling of congestion revenues. This paper explor ...
