Design and Implementation of Zone-to-Zone Demand Responsive Transportation Systems

Shiyu Shen et al.

Summary: The paper introduces a framework for designing an application-based demand responsive transit system, consisting of a conceptual planning phase and a route design phase. The continuous approximation model is used in planning phase to optimize operational efficiency, while a customized bus routing model is employed in the design phase to generate profitable routes.

Optimal Design for Demand Responsive Connector Service Considering Elastic Demand

Hongtai Yang et al.

Summary: Demand Responsive Connector (DRC) operates by picking up passengers based on requests and delivering them to a common destination, with demand influenced by fare, travel time, and time reliability. This paper introduces an elastic demand function and time deviation penalty model to formulate one-vehicle and two-vehicle DRC models, optimizing social welfare through decision variables such as fare, service area, and operating cycle time. Simulation and sensitivity analysis reveal key parameters affecting the models' validity and the threshold values for the applicability of one-vehicle and two-vehicle schemes.
