Public Bikesharing in North America
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2013Public bikesharing, the shared use of a bicycle fleet by the public, is an innovative mobility strategy that has emerged recently in major North American cities. Typically, bikesharing systems position bicycles throughout an urban environment, within a network of docking stations, for immediate access.

Bikeshare Users on a Budget? Trip Chaining Analysis of Bikeshare User Groups in Chicago
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2019This analysis focuses on a smartphone app known as “Transit” that is used to unlock shared bicycles in Chicago. Data from the app were utilized in a three-part analysis. First, Transit app bikeshare usage patterns were compared with system-wide bikeshare utilization using publicly available data.

Modeling Demand for Bikesharing Systems
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2014Bikesharing systems are becoming popular all over the world. One of the remaining problems is that the rides are not uniformly distributed between stations and that certain stations fill up or empty over time. These empty and full stations lead to demand for bikes and return boxes (docks) that cannot be fulfilled; the situation leads to unsatisfied and

A Study of Bikesharing and Bicycle Safety
2016The study found that bikesharing users have lower vehicle-involved collision rates than standard measures of collision rates for personal bicyclists. This implies that bikesharing users appear to avoid collisions more than regular cyclists, which naturally reduces their exposure to injury.

North America's First E-Bikeshare
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2013The integration of electric bicycles (e-bikes) with bikesharing could increase the utility of bikesharing through a reduction of some barriers to bicycling and an increase in the number of prospective users. North America's first e-bikesharing system (cycleUshare) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, offers a new, sustainable transportation ...

Improving Bikesharing Service Quality
2019Bike sharing is a typically structured non-motorized transportation service that provides users point-to-point transportation. The services are flexible to users as they do not have to wait in a line to pick up a bicycle from any bike sharing system and can return it to any other location of the bike sharing system.

Data Set-Spatiotemporal Bikeshare System Status
Manufacturing & Service Operations ManagementProblem Definition: Bikeshare systems are expanding worldwide, but empirical research is hindered by the lack of high-frequency data on system status. Public bikeshare datasets typically include only trip start and end records, with no information on real-time station conditions (e.g., how many bikes or docks are available). This gap in data limits the
