چکیده
This paper develops a multiobjective programming model for the optimal allocation of passenger train services on an intercity high-speed rail line without branches. Minimizing the operator's total operating cost and minimizing the passenger's total travel time loss are the two planning objectives of the model. For a given many-to-many travel demand and a speci®ed operating capacity, the model is solved by a fuzzy mathematical programming approach to determine the best-compromise train service plan, including the train stop-schedule plan, service frequency, and ̄eet size. An empirical study on the to-be-built high-speed rail system in Taiwan is conducted to demonstrate the eectiveness of the model. The case study shows that an optimal set of stop-schedules can always be generated for a given travel demand. To achieve the best planning outcome, the number and type of stop-schedules should be ̄exibly planned, and not constrained by speci®c stopping schemes as often set by the planner.

We consider nonlinear nonconvex capacitated transportation problems where the nonlinearity occurs only in the last row of the transportation tableau. This transportation model can be successfully applied to economics representing the nonlinearity caused by penalties for unsatis®ed contractual quantities or by changing in price. An algorithm for local optimization, based on the algorithms for so...

This paper addresses the problem of determining a dynamic berth assignment to ships in the public berth system. While the public berth system may not be suitable for most container ports in major countries, it is desired for higher cost-eectiveness in Japan's ports. The berth allocation to calling ships is a key factor for ecient public berthing. However, it is not calculated in polynomially-...

A reduction method is proposed which allows standard sensitivity techniques for variational inequalities to applied to equilibrium network ̄ow problems without additional assumptions on either the underlying network or the numbers of active paths. In particular it is shown that under mild regularity conditions, small perturbations of equilibria can be given an explicit arc̄ow representation whic...

This paper presents improved time-dependent control strategies for small freeway networks with bottlenecks and unique origin±destination paths. It is assumed that there are no spill-overs from any of the freeway exits so that freeway queues and delays can be completely avoided by regulating access to the system so as to maintain bottleneck ̄ows strictly below capacity. It is also assumed that t...

The Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives (IIA) property of the multinomial logit (MNL) model imposes the restriction of zero covariance between the utilities of pairs of alternatives. This restriction is inappropriate for many choice situations; those in which some pairs or sets of alternatives share the same unobserved attributes. The nested logit (NL) model relaxes the zero covariance rest...
