Robust Management of Airport Security Queues Considering Passenger Non-compliance with Chance-Constrained Optimization Open
The long waiting time at airport security has become an emergent issue as demand for air travel continues to grow. Not only does queuing at security cause passengers to miss their flights, but also reduce the amount of time passengers spen…

Effective Management of Airport Security Queues with Passenger Reassignment Open
Airport security queues often suffer from inefficiencies that result in long wait times and decreased throughput, especially at peak departure time, affecting both passengers and airlines. This work addresses the problem of reassigning pas…

Analyzing pedestrians’ crash injury risk factors in Barcelona Open
Pedestrian crashes can be affected by different factors that can increase or decrease their possibilities of occurring and other consequences related to them, including the level of injury. In Barcelona, in particular, and in Spain, in gen…

Spatial analysis of public transportation infrastructure in Santiago, Chile, using the continuous approximation method Open
Santiago, the capital city of Chile, has seven million inhabitants in an area of 850 km2. This city has a metro network with seven lines extending 140 kilometers and transports approximately 2.6 million people daily. The bus system has und…

Operational cost and user performance analysis of on-demand bus and taxi systems Open
This paper presents the optimization problem of three different on-demand transit systems operated by vehicles of different sizes. This problem is aimed at minimizing the total cost of the system, which consists of the temporal cost experi…

Modeling public transportation networks for a circular city: the role of urban subcenters and mobility density Open
The concentration of both employment and services in a specific area of a town generates positive effects, but also impacts (congestion, transit issues, and others). Urban subcenters seek to approach economic activities to residents in per…

Implementation of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles in Cities Could Have Neutral Effects on the Total Travel Time Costs: Modeling and Analysis for a Circular City Open
Autonomous vehicles promise to revolutionize the automobile market, although their implementation could take several decades in which both types of cars will coexist on the streets. We formulate a model for a circular city based on continu…

NIGHT DELIVERIES AND CARRIER-LED CONSOLIDATION STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE URBAN GOODS DISTRIBUTION Open
Night distribution and consolidation strategies have been proposed in many cities to increase the efficiency of the urban goods distribution system and to reduce the external effects that it causes in terms of emissions. However, the deplo…

Smart cities and value of time: An International Symposium Open
Travel time and activity time have been treated as separate notions, albeit with some assumed interdependencies. But, previous studies show that people accept noticeable higher travel time ratios when travelling by public transport compare…

Learnings From Urban Bus Network Change Open
We present a strategy to improve bus service in urban networks that gives equal or better transit service and saves public resources: a win-win strategy. It consists on changing from “direct lines” to mobility centers from each quarter of …
