  1. 1. Integration of Shared Autonomous Fleets in Public Transport: : A Case Study of Uppsala, Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : François Poinsignon; [2022]
    Keywords : Public Transport; Autonomous Vehicles; Shared Autonomous Fleets; Demand Responsive Transit; Traffic Simulation; Transport Modelling; Future Mobility;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles are predicted to disrupt the current landscape of urban mobility.Many studies have investigated how autonomous vehicles, either operated as a serviceor as private cars, could compete against public transport and even replace it. READ MORE

  3. 2. Improving accessibility to the bus service : Building an accessibility measurement tool in QGIS

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Author : Philip Lindén; [2021]
    Keywords : public transportation; public transit; fixed route transit systems; buses; bus stops; accessibility; measuring accessibility; measuring performance; social exclusion; vulnerable groups; GIS; QGIS; Graphical Modeler;

    Abstract : Satisfactory public transportation (PT) should enable people to reach attractive destinations and desired activities fast, comfortably, safely, and affordably. When PT fails to do so it will have negative effects on the overall accessibility in a society. READ MORE

  4. 3. Using a multi-objective cuckoo search algorithm to solve the urban transit routing problem

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Linus Ekelöf; [2021]
    Keywords : optimization; applied mathematics; cuckoo search; metaheuristic algorithm; urban transit routing problem; optimering; tillämpad matematik; cuckoo search; metaheuristisk algoritm; optimering av kollektivtrafiknät;

    Abstract : The design of public transportation networks includes the problem of finding efficient transit routes. This problem is called the Urban Transit Routing Problem (UTRP) and it is a highly complex combinatorial optimization problem. READ MORE

  5. 4. A heuristic approach for scheduling of electrical buses

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Optimeringslära; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Rasmus Lindberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Vehicle scheduling; electrical buses; heuristics;

    Abstract : The planning process of public transit systems have for long been a subject treated in operations research. In recent years, research within the public transit area focus on adapting this planning process for electric vehicles. READ MORE

  6. 5. Go with the flow : A study exploring public transit performance using a flow network model

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Axel Boman; Erik Nilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : GTFS; graph mining; flow network model; capacity modeling; public transit; public transport networks; maximum flow; minimum cut; maxflow; mincut; vulnerability characterization; public transit performance;

    Abstract : As opposed to public transit agencies' well-developed data generation capabilities, their utilization of their data is often overlooked. This study will tap into the potential of using the GTFS data format from an agency stakeholder perspective to assess transit performance. READ MORE
