Changes in the Pattern of Bikeshare Usage due to the COVID-19 Pandemic

open access: yesFindings, 2021
Bikeshare use in New York City dropped substantially during the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic, but by summer of 2020 had largely recovered to pre-pandemic levels. The patterns of usage, however, have changed.

Residents in Seattle, WA Report Differential Use of Free-Floating Bikeshare by Age, Gender, Race, and Location

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2019
Bikesharing may have numerous urban health, sustainability, and mobility benefits. Bikesharing systems that do not require stations (i.e., “dockless,” or “free-floating” bikeshare) launched in North America in 2017.

Life cycle assessment to quantify the impact of technology improvements in bike‐sharing systems

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 138-148, February 2020., 2020
Abstract The reduced environmental footprint of bicycle sharing systems (BSS) is one of the reasons for their rapid growth in popularity. BSS have evolved technologically, transitioning from smart dock systems to smart bicycle systems, and it is not clear if the increased use of electronics in BSS results in a net environmental benefit.

The conditional permutation test for independence while controlling for confounders

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Statistical Methodology), Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 175-197, February 2020., 2020
Summary We propose a general new method, the conditional permutation test, for testing the conditional independence of variables X and Y given a potentially high dimensional random vector Z that may contain confounding factors. The test permutes entries of X non‐uniformly, to respect the existing dependence between X and Z and thus to account for the ...

Machine Learning Approach to Quantity Management for Long‐Term Sustainable Development of Dockless Public Bike: Case of Shenzhen in China

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Since the number of bicycles is critical to the sustainable development of dockless PBS, this research practiced the introduction of a machine learning approach to quantity management using OFO bike operation data in Shenzhen. First, two clustering algorithms were used to identify the bicycle gathering area, and the available bike number and ...

Equity implications of electric bikesharing in Philadelphia

open access: yesGeoJournal, 2022
Bikesharing is an affordable mode of transportation and a potential tool to reduce car usage in cities. However, in many cities, bikesharing seems to be used mostly by affluent populations. Indego, Philadelphia's bikeshare, embraced the promotion of equity as part of its primary goals.

Bikesharing in Europe, the Americas, and Asia [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2010
Growing concerns about global motorization and climate change have led to increasing interest in sustainable transportation alternatives such as bikesharing (the shared use of a bicycle fleet). Since 1965, bikesharing has grown across the globe on five continents: Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and Australia.

Impacts of COVID-19 on bike-share usage: The case of Daejeon, Korea

open access: yesTransportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives, 2023
After COVID-19 began spreading through fecal-oral routes, crowded cities introduced social distancing policies. Mobility patterns in urban also changed because of the pandemic and the policies to reduce the infection of it.
