Dynamic prediction-based relocation policies in one-way station-based carsharing systems with complete journey reservations

Toward User-Based Relocation Information Systems in Station-Based One-Way Car Sharing

Car sharing is an important mobility service to approach urban and suburban mobility problems. It is a sustainable means of transport because it lowers the emissions of each car sharing customer by substituting privately owned vehicles by joint used ones. Nevertheless, car sharing still has to fully unfold its potential and has to overcome certain obstacles. For instance, it is necessary to sub...

Two Flow-Based Approaches for the Static Relocation Problem in Carsharing Systems

In a carsharing system, a fleet of cars is distributed at stations in an urban area, customers can take and return cars at any time and station. For operating such a system in a satisfactory way, the stations have to keep a good ratio between the numbers of free places and cars in each station. This leads to the problem of relocating cars between stations, which can be modeled within the framew...

Generating Rental Data for Car Sharing Relocation Simulations on the Example of Station-Based One-Way Car Sharing

Developing sophisticated car sharing simulations is a major task to improve car sharing as a sustainable means of transportation, because new algorithms for enhancing car sharing efficiency are formulated using them. Simulations rely on input data, which is often gathered in car sharing systems or artificially generated. Real-world data is often incomplete and biased while artificial data is mo...

a new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot

abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...
