Why Electric Vehicles are NOT Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV)
Barbara Finlayson-Pitts
Tailpipe emissions have declined dramatically in response to regulator efforts over many decades. However, non-tailpipe exhaust emissions (NTP) associated with brake and tire wear as...
As fast-moving wildfires increasingly threaten large metropolitan regions, evacuation outcomes depend not only on risk perception but on the transportation systems available to households under...
This talk details the recently launched center ACCELRT: Autonomous Cargo Carriers for Enhanced Logistics in Rural & Tribal areas. The challenge: our transportation infrastructure does...
Air traffic control (ATC) and air traffic management (ATM) operate across multiple timescales and decision layers, yet both are fundamentally shaped by uncertainty arising from...
Joint Estimation of a Semi-Markov Decision Process Model of Vacant Taxi Matching and Routing
Song Gao
We formulate a vacant ride-sourcing or taxi driver’s routing decision as an infinite-horizon semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) in a road network, where a driver decides...
Urban Inequality Through the Lens of Travel Networks
Elijah Knaap
In this presentation, I share findings from two projects examining the ways that travel network analysis provides a critical lens for urban inequality research. The...
Autonomous Vehicles as Sensors (AVaS): Traffic State Estimation in the Operation of Mobility on Demand Services
Yunfei Zhang
Autonomous vehicles are rapidly becoming a central component of future mobility systems—but beyond enabling safe navigation, what else can we do with the rich data...
Multi-agent coverage optimization is a foundational problem with applications across surveillance, wireless network design, data harvesting, and Mobility-on-Demand (MoD) systems. Historically, the Voronoi partitioning method...
