The Bike Sharing Problem

open access: yes, 2021
Assume that $m \geq 1$ autonomous mobile agents and $0 \leq b \leq m$ single-agent transportation devices (called {\em bikes}) are initially placed at the left endpoint $0$ of the unit interval $[0,1]$. The agents are identical in capability and can move at speed one.

The Safety of Bike Share Systems [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Transport Forum Discussion Papers, 2018
This paper reviews available research on the safety impacts associated with the growth in bike share use. In the last 20 years the global fleet of dock-based and dockless bike share systems has grown to well over 4 500 000; making bike share one of the fastest growing modes of transport. This rapid increase in popularity has made bike safety a priority
