Environmental Implications of Autonomous Demand Responsive Bus in Microscopic Traffic Simulation

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2023
An autonomous demand-responsive transit with mobility-on-demand (MoD) service is an emerging technology to accommodate many travelers with autonomous vehicles (AVs) in congested areas. The MoDA DRT bus can efficiently mitigate the risks of driver fatigue

Demand Response With Communicating Rational Consumers [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, 2018
The performance of an energy system under a real-time pricing mechanism depends on the consumption behavior of its customers, which involves uncertainties. In this paper, we consider a system operator that charges its customers with a real-time price that depends on the total realized consumption.

On the Optimal Design of Demand Response Policies [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
We characterize the optimal regulatory policy to promote efficient demand response (DR) in the electricity sector. DR arises when consumers reduce their purchases of electricity below historic levels at times when the utility’s marginal cost of supplying electricity is relatively high.

Universities' Implicit Demand Response Participation [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe (ISGT-Europe), 2019
Universities are large energy consumers and can potentially benefit from the participation in the implicit demand response. However, universities usually concern the security of the energy budget and might have larger electricity bill if realtime prices are frequently higher than fixed prices.

Vehicle routing and scheduling of demand-responsive connector with on-demand stations

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
As an important supplement of conventional fixed-route public transit, flexible transit services draw more attention in low-demand areas recently. Demand-responsive connector is one of those flexible transit services and has already been operated as ...

Constitutive versus responsive gene expression strategies for growth in changing environments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Microbes respond to changing environments by adjusting gene expression levels to the demand for the corresponding proteins. Adjusting protein levels is slow, consequently cells may reach the optimal protein level only by a time when the demand changed ...

Comparison of Operational Costs for Fixed-Route Bus Service and Demand Responsive Transport Systems. The Case of Kosice Region - Slovakia

open access: yesCommunications, 2023
The issue of sustainability of public transport is constantly receiving attention from both government and research. One possible solution, demand responsive transport (DRT), can increase accessibility in rural areas, improve the quality of service as ...

Facile synthesis of near-infrared responsive on-demand oxygen releasing nanoplatform for precise MRI-guided theranostics of hypoxia-induced tumor chemoresistance and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology, 2022
Background Hypoxia is an important factor that contributes to chemoresistance and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), and alleviating hypoxia microenvironment can enhance the anti-tumor efficacy and also inhibit tumor invasion.
