A Threshold Policy for Dispatching Vehicles in Demand-responsive Transit Systems

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2019
This paper considers vehicle dispatching for a flexible transit system providing doorstep services from a terminal. The problem is tackled with an easy-to-implement threshold policy, where an available vehicle is dispatched when the number of boarded ...

Integrating Demand Responsive Services Into Public Transport Disruption Management

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2021
High-capacity public transport services such as metro and commuter trains are efficient during normal operations but are vulnerable to disruptions. To manage disruptions, bridging buses are commonly called in to replace the rail-based service along the ...

Strategic Planning and Prospects of Rail-Bound Demand Responsive Transit [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2018
Fully automated services allow for greater flexibility in operations and lower marginal operational costs. In this study we examined the strategic planning implications of a novel service concept – an automated rail demand responsive transit (DRT) system that offers a direct non-stop service.

Demand responsive transit scheduling method considering passenger travel choice

open access: yesShenzhen Daxue xuebao. Ligong ban
Demand responsive transit service faces the challenge of maintaining operating profits while complying with passenger preferences. To address this, a multinomial logit model was established to describe passenger travel choice behaviors, and a service ...

Impact of Competition on Quality of Service in Demand Responsive Transit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Demand responsive transportation has the potential to provide efficient public door-to-door transport with a high quality. In currently implemented systems in the Netherlands, however, we observe a decrease in the quality of service (QoS), expressed in longer travel times for the customers.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS 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.
