Multiobjective Optimal Formulations for Bus Fleet Size of Public Transit under Headway-Based Holding Control

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2019
In recent years, with the development of advanced technologies for data collection, real-time bus control strategies have been implemented to improve the daily operation of transit systems, especially headway-based holding control which is a proven ...

An Improved Model for Headway-Based Bus Service Unreliability Prevention with Vehicle Load Capacity Constraint at Bus Stops

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2012
This paper presents an improved model for improving headway-based bus route service reliability at bus stops using real-time preventive operation control, taking into account dynamic interaction among random passenger demand, stochastic driving ...

Simulation-Based Sensitivity Analysis for Evaluating Factors Affecting Bus Service Reliability: A Big and Smart Data Implementation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Service quality is a significant concern for both providers and users of public transportation. It is crucial for transit agencies to clearly recognize the causes of unreliability before adapting any improvement strategy.

Bus Bunching and Variability of Travel Speed and Dwell TimeA Bus Service Study of ‘The Orbiter’ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The context of this study is the increasing need for public transport as issues over high private vehicle usage are becoming increasingly obvious. Public transport services need to compete with private transport to improve patronage, and issues with ...

From Rating System to Thought Leadership: The Evolution of the Canada Green Building Council

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Green Building Social Movement Organizations encourage the adoption of green buildings, primarily by promoting sustainability rating tools. While numerous papers have explored the market impact of these sustainability rating tools, very few have examined either the lengthy and protracted process of their selection and enrollment by ...

Integrating Bus Holding Control Strategies and Schedule Recovery: Simulation-Based Comparison and Recommendation

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2018
In the absence of control strategies, headway fluctuation and bus bunching are commonly observed in transit operation due to the stochastic attributes such as travel time and passenger demand.

Long‐Term Therapy Experiences in Post‐suicidal Men: Safety, Gender and Iatrogenic Harm

open access: yesMultiPsych, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Men who have survived a suicide attempt and engaged in long‐term psychotherapy describe the therapeutic relationship as the primary agent of recovery—not technique, but sustained relational presence. Gender dynamics, developmental history and institutional failure all shape engagement. These findings challenge short‐term service models and carry direct

Zero bunching solution for a local public transport system with multiple-origins bus operation

open access: yes, 2022
Bus bunching in public transport is the concentration of similar buses having different schedules to a common time point. The reason for this phenomenon is variations existing in the bus operation as earliness and lateness.

A Bunch of Gaps: Factors Behind Service Reliability in Chicago’s High-Frequency Transit Network

open access: yesSmart Cities
Frequent transit services in urban areas have the potential to increase their accessibility to transit-dependent riders and reduce congestion by attracting new ridership through a modal shift.

Simulation-Based Optimization in a Bidirectional $A/B$ Skip-Stop Bus Service

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
A two-way bus corridor system always suffers severe demand imbalance between their two operational directions during the peak hours. This paper intends to minimize the average passenger travel time by applying the A/B skip-stop strategy in such an ...
