Car-sharing offers an environmentally sustainable, socially responsible and economically feasible mobility form in which a fleet of shared-use vehicles in a number of locations can be accessed and used by many people on as-needed basis at an hourly or mileage rate. To ensure its sustainability, car-sharing operators must be able to effectively manage dynamic and uncertain demands, and make the best decisions on strategic vehicle allocation and operational vehicle reallocation both in time and space to improve their profits while keeping costs under control. This paper develops a stochastic optimization method to optimize strategic allocation of vehicles for one-way carsharing systems under demand uncertainty. A multi-stage stochastic linear programming model is developed and solved for use in the context of car-sharing. A seven-stage experimental network study is conducted. Numerical results and computational insights are discussed.
汽车共享提供了一种环境可持续、对社会负责、经济可行的移动形式,在这种形式中,许多人可以根据需要按小时或里程收费,在多个地点使用共享车辆。为了确保其可持续性,共享汽车运营商必须能够有效地管理动态和不确定的需求,在时间和空间上对战略车辆配置和运营车辆重新分配做出最佳决策,以提高其利润,同时控制成本。提出了一种需求不确定条件下单向汽车共享系统车辆策略优化的随机优化方法。建立并求解了汽车共享环境下的多阶段随机线性规划模型。进行了七阶段的实验网络研究。讨论了数值结果和计算意义。

The primary purpose of this study is to analyze air carriers’ behavior in capturing market share by examining the economic factors affecting passenger behavior toward air travel. This study also examines non-economic factors such as seasonality, unexpected events (9/11 attack), mergers, and trends. Because the airlines included in this study compete with each other, seemingly unrelated regression estimation (SURE) is used to estimate the parameters of the demand models which have correlated error terms. The economic and statistical relationship of the factors with air passenger miles provides valuable information to understand the nature of the demand for the U.S. air passenger industry. In examining demand determinants, this study concludes that air fare, income, seasonality, and mergers play significant roles in determining the demand for air passengers.
本研究的主要目的是通过考察影响旅客航空旅行行为的经济因素来分析航空承运人在获取市场份额方面的行为。本研究还考察了非经济因素,如季节性、意外事件(9/11袭击)、合并和趋势。由于本研究所包含的航空公司之间存在竞争关系,故采用看似不相关回归估计(看似不相关回归估计)对误差项相关的需求模型参数进行估计。这些因素与航空乘客里程的经济和统计关系为了解美国航空客运行业需求的本质提供了有价值的信息。在考察需求决定因素时,本研究得出结论,机票价格、收入、季节性和合并在决定航空旅客需求方面发挥了重要作用。

Hierarchical linear models improve the measurement of performance when applied to a construct such as a metroplex. It compares the outcomes of a hierarchical linear model with those of a multiple regression model to evaluate whether meteorological conditions at individual airports and overall would explain variations in block delays. The study used the cases of the three largest airports in the DC Metroplex and concluded airborne delays had a significant random effect on block delays in spite of meteorological conditions at each airport. It pointed out that surface operations efficiency played a significant role in explaining variations in block delays.
层次线性模型在应用于诸如城域这样的结构时可以改进性能度量。它将层次线性模型的结果与多元回归模型的结果进行比较,以评估个别机场和整体机场的气象条件是否可以解释航班延误的变化。该研究以华盛顿大都会区三个最大的机场为例,得出的结论是,无论每个机场的气象条件如何,空中延误对整体延误都有显著的随机影响。它指出,地面作业效率在解释块延迟的变化方面起着重要作用。

Infrastructure public-private partnerships (“P3s”) have gained considerable recognition as useful policy tools for state and local governments to deliver critically needed infrastructure projects. The objective of this study is to empirically test one of the claims often made regarding states’ motivations for employing this procurement mechanism: P3s can help overcome fiscal constraints on state infrastructure investment. In addition, this study empirically analyzes how state P3 enabling legislation affects the behavior of both the public and private sectors. A regular logit model and a fixed effects logit panel model are employed to test the hypothesis that states with more severe fiscal constraints are more likely to seek P3s for highway infrastructure construction and finance. After controlling for such factors as state economic condition, legislative political affiliation, and highway travel demand, the empirical results indicate that states’ fiscal constraints are not associated with the propensity to use highway P3 projects.
基础设施公私合作伙伴关系(“P3s”)作为州和地方政府提供急需的基础设施项目的有用政策工具,已经获得了相当大的认可。本研究的目的是实证检验关于国家采用这种采购机制的动机的一个说法:p3可以帮助克服国家基础设施投资的财政约束。此外,本研究还实证分析了国家P3授权立法如何影响公共和私营部门的行为。采用正则logit模型和固定效应logit面板模型检验财政约束越严重的国家越有可能寻求公路基础设施建设p3和融资p3的假设。在控制了各州经济状况、立法政治派别和公路出行需求等因素后,实证结果表明,各州财政约束与公路P3项目使用倾向无关。

A total of 30 roundabouts with different dimensions and characteristics were selected from three cities in Jordan. The collected data included the approaching road free flow speed (FFS), area type, entry width, circulating roadway width, exit width, roundabout internal and external circle diameters, circulating roadway super elevation, entry deviation angle, and drive curve. The regression analysis showed that the entry width, internal circulating diameter, entry deviation angle, approaching FFS, and drive curve were significant in determining the average and 85th percentile roundabout circulating speed. The developed model was compared with other international models developed in the United States and Italy.

Income and Exchange Rate Sensitivities of Cross-Border Freight Flows: Evidence from U.S.-Canada Exports and Imports by Truck, Rail, Air, and Pipeline 跨境货运流的收入和汇率敏感性:来自美国-加拿大卡车、铁路、航空和管道出口和进口的证据

This paper aims to improve understanding of the long-run impacts of the gross domestic product (GDP), real exchange rate, and the producer price index (PPI) on U.S.-Canada bilateral freight flows in a dynamic framework. Special attention is given to cross-border exports and imports by truck, rail, pipeline, and air. Using the fully modified ordinary least squares (FM-OLS) approach, the paper finds that the GDP of the importing country is a pronounced factor influencing U.S.- Canada cross-border trade, suggesting that economic growth of the country is a powerful driver in the relative intensity of bilateral freight flows. The real exchange rate tends to be positively associated with U.S. imports, but negatively associated with U.S. exports, indicating that the U.S. dollar depreciation against the Canadian dollar increases demand for U.S. commodities in Canada, but weakens demand for Canadian commodities in the United States. The long-run effects of the selected economic variables on cross-border exports and imports are found to vary by mode of transportation. The Canadian GDP has a positive and significant effect on U.S. freight exports by all transportation modes, but U.S. exports by pipeline are more sensitive to a change in Canadian GDP than U.S. exports by truck and rail. The findings in this paper provide important policy and managerial implications for cross-border transportation planning in the United States and Canada.
本文旨在提高对国内生产总值(GDP)、实际汇率和生产者价格指数(PPI)在动态框架下对美国-加拿大双边货运流的长期影响的理解。特别关注通过卡车、铁路、管道和航空进行的跨境出口和进口。利用完全修正的普通最小二乘(fs - ols)方法,本文发现进口国的GDP是影响美加跨境贸易的一个显著因素,这表明该国的经济增长是双边货运流相对强度的强大驱动因素。实际汇率往往与美国进口呈正相关,但与美国出口负相关,这表明美元兑加元贬值增加了加拿大对美国商品的需求,但削弱了美国对加拿大商品的需求。所选经济变量对跨境出口和进口的长期影响发现因运输方式而异。加拿大国内生产总值对美国所有运输方式的货运出口都有积极而显著的影响,但美国管道出口比美国卡车和铁路出口对加拿大国内生产总值的变化更敏感。本文的研究结果为美国和加拿大的跨境交通规划提供了重要的政策和管理意义。

Overhead guide sign visibility on highway, can be achieved either by illumination or by using retroreflective sheeting. Two surveys were sent to all U.S. departments of transportation, to determine the states’ policies for increasing overhead guide sign visibility. Results showed that 57% of states currently illuminate guide signs, and the most used retroreflective sheeting by states that do not illuminate signs is Diamond Grade for legend and High Intensity for background. Based on cost analysis, the LED light source and the High Intensity (types III and IV) retroreflective sheeting are the most cost-effective methods for increasing guide signs visibility.

The implementation of the Highway Safety Manual (HSM) at the state level has the potential to allow transportation agencies to proactively address safety concerns. However, the widespread utilization of HSM faces significant barriers as many state departments of transportations (DOTs) do not have sufficient HSM-required highway inventory data. Many techniques have been utilized by state DOTs and local agencies to collect highway inventory data for other purposes. Nevertheless, it is unknown which of these methods or any combination of them is capable of efficiently collecting the required dataset while minimizing cost and safety concerns. The focus of this study is to characterize the capability of existing methods for collecting highway inventory data vital to the implementation of the recently published HSM. More specifically, this study evaluated existing highway inventory methods through a nationwide survey and a field trial of identified promising highway inventory data collection (HIDC) methods on various types of highway segments. A comparative analysis was conducted to present an example on how to incorporate weights provided by state DOT stakeholders to select the most suitable HIDC method for the specific purpose.
高速公路安全手册(HSM)在州一级的实施有可能使运输机构主动解决安全问题。然而,高速切削的广泛应用面临着巨大的障碍,因为许多州的交通部门(DOTs)没有足够的高速切削所需的公路库存数据。许多技术已被国家交通运输部和地方机构用于其他目的收集公路清单数据。然而,目前尚不清楚这些方法中的哪一种或它们的任何组合能够有效地收集所需的数据集,同时最大限度地降低成本和安全问题。本研究的重点是描述收集公路库存数据的现有方法的能力,这些数据对最近发布的高速公路模型的实施至关重要。更具体地说,本研究通过全国范围内的调查和在不同类型的公路段上确定有前途的公路清单数据收集(HIDC)方法的现场试验,评估了现有的公路清单方法。通过对比分析,举例说明了如何结合各州DOT利益相关者提供的权重,以选择最适合特定目的的HIDC方法。

This paper applies a stochastic cost frontier model to a panel of 54 major airports over 2002-2008 to examine how the two dominant governance forms of publicly owned airports in the United States and Canada, namely, operation and governance by a government (city, county, or state) branch, or by an airport authority, affect airport efficiency performance. Our key findings are (a) airports operated by an airport authority achieve higher cost efficiency (on average, 14% higher technical efficiency) than those operated by a government branch; (b) airports operated by a government branch have lower labor share than those operated by an airport authority; and (c) there is no statistically significant difference in the efficiency performance between airports operated by U.S. airport authorities and Canadian airport authorities.
本文将随机成本前沿模型应用于2002-2008年间的54个主要机场的面板,以研究美国和加拿大公有机场的两种主要治理形式,即政府(市、县或州)分支机构或机场管理局的运营和治理如何影响机场效率绩效。我们的主要发现是:(a)由机场管理局运营的机场比由政府部门运营的机场具有更高的成本效率(平均技术效率高出14%);(b)政府分支机构运营的机场比机场管理局运营的机场劳动收入占比低;(c)美国机场当局和加拿大机场当局运营的机场之间的效率表现在统计上没有显著差异。

Using National Household Travel Survey data and information collected from over 100 agencies, transportation-related taxation and expenditures were assigned to individual households in the Houston Core Based Statistical Area (CBSA). Using Gini Coefficients and Theil Indices, the research demonstrated that implementation of a Mileage Based User Fee (MBUF) would not have a pronounced effect on the current distribution of what households pay versus what they receive in transportation expenditures. The relative winners are rural and high income urban households, while the relative losers are all other urban households.
利用从100多个机构收集的全国家庭旅行调查数据和信息,将与交通相关的税收和支出分配给休斯顿核心统计区(CBSA)的单个家庭。利用基尼系数和他们的指数,研究表明,实施里程收费(MBUF)不会对当前家庭支付的交通支出与他们获得的交通支出的分配产生明显影响。农村和城市高收入家庭是相对的赢家,而其他城市家庭则是相对的输家。
