Low-Carbon Multimodal Transportation Path Optimization under Dual Uncertainty of Demand and Time

Multi-objective Optimization of Multimodal Passenger Transportation Networks: Coping with Demand Uncertainty

Robustness of optimal solutions when solving network design problems is of great importance because of uncertainty in future demand. In this research the optimization of infrastructure planning in a multimodal passenger transportation network is defined as a multiobjective network design problem, with accessibility, use of urban space by parking, operating deficit and climate impact as objectiv...

Joint optimization of pricing and capacity allocation for two competitive airlines under demand uncertainty

Nowadays, airline industries should overcome different barriers regarding the fierce competition and changing consumer behavior. Thus, they attempt to focus on joint decision making which enables them to set pricing and capacity allocation to maximize their profits. In this research, we develop a model to optimize pricing and capacity allocation in a duopoly of single-flight leg for two competi...

Path Planning under Time-Dependent Uncertainty

Standard algorithms for finding the short­ est path in a graph require that the cost of a path be additive in edge costs, and typically assume that costs are determinis­ tic. We consider the problem of uncertain edge costs, with potential probabilistic de­ pendencies among the costs. Although these dependencies violate the standard dynamic­ programming decomposition, we identify a weaker stocha...

Evacuation Transportation Planning Under Uncertainty: A Robust Optimization Approach

This paper considers evacuation via surface transportation networks in an uncertain environment. We focus on demand uncertainty which can lead to significant infeasibility cost during evacuation, where loss of life or property may appear. We develop a robust linear programming model based on a robust optimization approach where hard constraints are guaranteed within an appropriate uncertainty s...
