Demand Responsive Transport: A Review of Schemes in England and Wales [PDF]
Journal of Public Transportation, 2009 Local-authority-administered Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) schemes are increasingly prevalent in England and Wales, partly as a result of the growth in the availability of government funding. However, insufficient research has been undertaken into the nature of these schemes and their performance, making it difficult to predict their future role ...

Examining the factors influencing microtransit users’ next ride decisions using Bayesian networks
European Transport Research Review, 2022 The progress of microtransit services across the world has been slower than expected due to institutional, operational, and financial barriers. However, how users' ride experiences and system attributes affects their future ride decisions remain an ...

An Individual-Based Simulation Approach to Demand Responsive Transport
, 2021 This article demonstrates an approach to the simulation of Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) – a flexible transport mode that typically operates as a combination of taxi and bus modes. Travellers request individual trips and DRT is capable of adjusting its routes or schedule to the needs of travellers. It has been seen as a part of the public transport

A Modular Synthetic Demand Generation Framework for Demand-Responsive Public Transport
IEEE Open Journal of Intelligent Transportation SystemsThis study develops a modular framework for generating synthetic demand for demand-responsive public transport (DRT) using real service data. From 518 days of operational records (~37,000 trips), we construct a simulated empirical demand (SED) baseline ...

2023 IEEE 26th International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC), 2023 On-demand transport services are often envisioned as stand-alone modes or as a replacement for conventional public transport modes. This leads to a comparison of service efficiencies, or direct competition for passengers between them. The results of this work point to the positive effects of the inclusion of DRT into the public transport network.

International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology, 2016 Fixed daily trips such as trips to work/school have fixed departure/arrival times and destination points. The recurrent nature of fixed activities facilitates individuals on making more well-informed decisions about the transport mode selection.

Welfare consequences of request stops at transport services with low demand
European Transport Research Review, 2020 Background Demand-responsive transport is an alternative to fixed-route, fixed-scheduled transport services in low-demand areas. Objective This paper discusses the welfare and distributional consequences of the implementation of request stops (RSs) on a ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
