Bike-Sharing: Is Safety an Issue Adversely Affecting its Potential for Being Embraced by Urban Societies? [PDF]

open access: yes
Using bicycles on an ‘as-needed’ basis, usually for a small rental fee and without the externalities and obligations linked to bicycle ownership, is what makes public bicycles a societally affordable medium to enhance the transition to a more sustainable

Bike3S: A tool for bike sharing systems simulation

open access: yesJournal of Simulation, 2020
Vehicle sharing systems are becoming increasingly popular. The effectiveness of such systems depends, among other factors, on different strategic and operational management decisions and policies, like the dimension of the fleet or the distribution of vehicles.

Smart Recommendations for Renting Bikes in Bike-Sharing Systems [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Vehicle-sharing systems—such as bike-, car-, or motorcycle-sharing systems—have become increasingly popular in big cities in recent years. On the one hand, they provide a cheaper and environmentally friendlier means of transportation than private cars, and on the other hand, they satisfy the individual mobility demands of citizens better than ...

Hybrid rebalancing with dynamic hubbing for free-floating bike sharing systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Transportation Science and Technology, 2022
For managing the supply-demand imbalance in free-floating bike sharing systems, we propose dynamic hubbing (i.e., geofencing areas varying from one day to another) and hybrid rebalancing (combining user-based and operator-based strategies) and solve the ...

Online Repositioning in Bike Sharing Systems

open access: yesProceedings of the International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling, 2017
Due to increased traffic congestion and carbon emissions, Bike Sharing Systems (BSSs) are adopted in various cities for short distance travels, specifically for last mile transportation. The success of a bike sharing system depends on its ability to have bikes available at the "right" base stations at the "right" times.
