Balancing Bike Sharing Systems
Bike Sharing Systems became popular in recent years to extend the public transportation network of cities or regions. Most research in this area focuses on finding the optimal locations for bike sharing stations. Still various approaches on how to operate such a system efficiently exist. The usefulness of a bike sharing system strongly depends on the user convenience which is directly connected...
متن کاملIncentivizing Users for Balancing Bike Sharing Systems
Bike sharing systems have been recently adopted by a growing number of cities as a new means of transportation offering citizens a flexible, fast and green alternative for mobility. Users can pick up or drop off the bicycles at a station of their choice without prior notice or time planning. This increased flexibility comes with the challenge of unpredictable and fluctuating demand as well as i...
متن کاملConstraint-Based Approaches for Balancing Bike Sharing Systems
In order to meet the users’ demand, bike sharing systems must be regularly rebalanced. The problem of balancing bike sharing systems (BBSS) is concerned with designing optimal tours and operating instructions for relocating bikes among stations to maximally comply with the expected future bike demands. In this paper, we tackle the BBSS by means of Constraint Programming: first, we introduce two...
متن کاملRebalancing Dockless Bike Sharing Systems
Bike sharing provides an environment-friendly way for traveling and is booming all over the world. Yet, due to the high similarity of user travel patterns, the bike imbalance problem constantly occurs, especially for dockless bike sharing systems, causing significant impact on service quality and company revenue. Thus, it has become a critical task for bike sharing systems to resolve such imbal...
متن کاملOnline Repositioning in Bike Sharing Systems
Due to increased traffic congestion and carbon emissions, Bike Sharing Systems (BSSs) are adopted in various cities for short distance travels, specifically for last mile transportation. The success of a bike sharing system depends on its ability to have bikes available at the "right" base stations at the "right" times. Typically, carrier vehicles are used to perform repositioning of bikes betw...
