A Bike Sharing System Simulator
2018Bike-sharing systems are becoming very popular in big cities. They provide a cheap and green mean of transportation used for commuting and leisure. Being a shared limited resource, it is common to reach imbalanced situations where some stations have either no bikes or only empty slots, thus decreasing the performance of the system.

Adaptive Bike Share: Expanding Bike Share to People with Disabilities and Older Adults
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2020Bike share systems are expanding efforts to be more equitable and accessible to everyone by offering adaptive bicycle options to people who might otherwise be unable to ride. These systems tend to range from the inclusion of electric bikes and standard trikes into the existing systems to offering a more full range of adaptive bicycle options for use at

Major cities—including New York, Paris, and London—have implemented bike-share systems to increase the use of sustainable modes of transportation. In this chapter we discuss the operational challenges of implementing such systems and also provide design recommendations. Critical decisions when implementing bike-share systems are the number of bikes and

Traffic prediction in a bike-sharing system
Proceedings of the 23rd SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems, 2015Bike-sharing systems are widely deployed in many major cities, providing a convenient transportation mode for citizens' commutes. As the rents/returns of bikes at different stations in different periods are unbalanced, the bikes in a system need to be rebalanced frequently.

In Anbetracht des immer fortschreitenden Klimawandels rückt die Kritik am gegenwärtigen Mobilitätssystem in den Fokus. Dieses ist vom motorisierten Individualverkehr geprägt und bringt negative Folgen für die Umwelt sowie das Klima mit sich. Aufgrund dessen sind nachhaltige Alternativen, die das bestehende System entlasten, gefragt.

Bike-Share Systems: Accessibility and Availability
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018The cities of Paris, London, Chicago, and New York (among many others) have set up bike-share systems to facilitate the use of bicycles for urban commuting. This paper estimates the impact of two facets of system performance on bike-share ridership: accessibility (how far the user must walk to reach stations) and bike-availability (the likelihood of ...
