Modeling and optimization of dedicated bus lanes space allocation in large networks with dynamic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Dimitrios Tsitsokas, Anastasios Kouvelas

Dedicated bus lanes provide a low cost and easily implementable strategy to improve transit service by minimizing congestion-related delays. Identifying the best spatial distribution of bus-only lanes in order to maximize traffic performance of an urban ne ...

Aldehyde-Assisted Fractionation Enhances Lignin Valorization in Endocarp Waste Biomass

Jeremy Luterbacher, Jean Thierry C Behaghel de Bueren, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Graham Reid Dick, Raymond Gérard Buser, Chloé Wegmann

Endocarp biomass, which forms much of the inedible portion of nuts and stone fruits, is a promising feedstock for aromatic chemical production due to its high lignin content and because it is a food industry waste. Here, we tested the nut shells and fruit ...

Electrification of urban mobility: The case of catenary-free buses

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci

Electric mobility is now a reality, and services based on electric vehicles, such as electric car-sharing and electric buses, are becoming part of urban mobility. These new modes bring new challenges for the design and operations of the systems that requir ...
