Integrated transportation system design optimization
Traditionally, the design of a transportation system has focused on either the vehicle design or the network flow, assuming the other as given. However, to define a system level architecture for a transportation system, it is advantageous to expand the system boundary during the design process to …

Transportation system modeling and applications in earthquake engineering
Transportation networks constitute one class of major civil infrastructure systems that is a critical backbone of modern society. Physical damage and functional loss to transportation infrastructure systems not only hinder everyday societal and commercial activities, but also impair post-disaster …

Design and operation of a last mile transportation system
… of travel service from the nearest public transportation node to a home or office. Last Mile Transportation Systems (LMTS) are critical extensions to traditional public transit systems. We study the LMTS from three perspectives. The first part of this thesis focuses on the design of a LMTS. …

Efficient capacity allocation in a collaborative air transportation system
… capacity to the users of the National Airspace System (NAS) during periods in which demand for the resources exceeds capacity. A metric by which the proposed methods are judged is the value that the users of the N AS are able to realize through the allocation. Maximization of this metric …

Approximating the performance of a last mile transportation system
… of travel service from the nearest public transportation node to a home or office. We study the supply side of this problem in a stochastic setting, with batch demands resulting from the arrival of groups of passengers at rail stations or bus stops who request last-mile service. Closed-form …

Applying Transportation Forecasting to the Atlanta Area Public Transportation System
… functions to the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transportation Authority (MARTA) system. Volume delay functions are n differentiable functions used to estimate the long-term distribution of user traffic on transportation systems. We will demonstrate the graphical behavior of these functions as …

Evaluating passenger delays in the US domestic air transportation system
A fundamental component of any National Airspace System (NAS) performance evaluation is the cost impact of air traffic delays, and more generally capacity limitations, on the traveling passengers. In previous research it has been conclusively shown that flight delay data and flight centric metrics …

L.A. Micro-Publics : expanding the seams of the transportation system
… civic identity. In this context, the region's transportation system emerges as both a form of governmentality and the "strategic terrain" for the struggle to redefine citizenship in the urban environment. The system itself is a space of contestation, where the struggle to claim the Lefebvrian …
