Macroscopic Pricing Schemes for the Utilization of Pool Ride-Hailing Vehicles in Bus Lanes

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Lynn Fayed

With the increasing popularity of ride-hailing services, new modes of transportation are having a significant impact on the overall performance of transportation networks. As a result, there is a need to ensure that both the various transportation alternat ...

A Blotto Game Approach to Ride-hailing Markets with Electric Vehicles

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Marko Maljkovic

When a centrally operated ride-hailing company considers to enter a market already served by another company, it has to make a strategic decision about how to distribute its fleet among different regions in the area. This decision will be influenced by the ...

Safe Schedule Verification for Urban Air Mobility Networks With Node Closures

Nils Gustav Nilsson

In urban air mobility (UAM) networks, takeoff and landing sites, called vertiports, are likely to experience intermittent closures due to, e.g., adverse weather. To ensure safety, all in-flight urban air vehicles (UAVs) in a UAM network must therefore have ...

The Strong Integral Input-to-State Stability Property in Dynamical Flow Networks

Nils Gustav Nilsson

Dynamical flow networks serve as macroscopic models for, e.g., transportation networks, queuing networks, and distribution networks. While the flow dynamics in such networks follow the conservation of mass on the links, the outflow from each link is often ...

GreenEVT: Greensboro Electric Vehicle Testbed

Nils Gustav Nilsson

The ongoing electrification of the transportation fleet will increase the load on the electric power grid. Since both the transportation network and the power grid already experience periods of significant stress, joint analyses of both infrastructures wil ...

Receding-Horizon Games with Tullock-Based Profit Functions for Electric Ride-Hailing Markets

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Marko Maljkovic

This paper proposes a receding-horizon, game-theoretic charging planning mechanism for electric ride-hailing markets. As the demand for ride-hailing services continues to surge and governments advocate for stricter environmental regulations, integrating el ...

A dynamic macroscopic framework for pricing of ride-hailing services with an optional bus lane access for pool vehicles

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Lynn Fayed

On-demand trip sharing is an efficient solution to mitigate the negative externalities e-hailing has on traffic in a network. It motivates platform operators to reduce their fleet size and serves the same demand level with a lower effective distance travel ...

On Finding the Leader's Strategy in Quadratic Aggregative Stackelberg Pricing Games

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson, Marko Maljkovic

This paper analyzes a class of Stackelberg games where different actors compete for shared resources and a central authority tries to balance the demand through a pricing mechanism. Situations like this can for instance occur when fleet owners of electric ...

On the Equilibrium and Stability Properties of a Macroscopic Model for Ride-Hailing Services with Limited Fleet Size

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nils Gustav Nilsson

With the growing popularity of ride-hailing services and the desire to operate those services efficiently, ridehailing companies need to ensure a sufficiently large fleet size and an appropriate rebalancing of empty vehicles. Due to the complexity of city ...

Resource aware pricing for electric vehicle charging

Nils Gustav Nilsson

Electric vehicle charging facilities offer their capacity constrained electric charge and parking to users for a fee. As electric vehicle adoption grows, so too does the potential for excessive resource utilization. In this paper, we study how prices set b ...
