A Feasible Solution for Rebalancing Large-Scale Bike Sharing Systems

چکیده
City bikes and bike-sharing systems (BSSs) are one solution to the last mile problem. BSSs guarantee equity by presenting affordable alternative transportation means for low-income households. These feature a multitude of bike stations scattered around city. Numerous mean users can borrow from location return it there or different location. However, this may create an unbalanced system, where some have excess others limited bikes. In paper, we propose balance BSS satisfy expected demand. Moreover, paper represents direct extension deferred acceptance algorithm-based heuristic previously proposed authors. We develop algorithm that provides delivery truck with near-optimal route (i.e., finding shortest Hamiltonian cycle) as NP-hard Results provide good quality computational time performance, making viable candidate real-time use operators. Our suggested approach is best suited low-Q problems. running times largest instance 143.6, 130.32, 51.85 s Q = 30, 20, 10, respectively, which makes rebalancing algorithm.

Free-floating bike sharing (FFBS) is an innovative bike sharing model. FFBS saves on start-up cost, in comparison to stationbased bike sharing (SBBS), by avoiding construction of expensive docking stations and kiosk machines. FFBS prevents bike theft and offers significant opportunities for smart management by tracking bikes in real-time with built-in GPS. However, like SBBS, the success of FFB...

متن کاملInventory Rebalancing through Pricing in Public Bike Sharing Systems
This paper presents a new conceptual approach to improve the operational performance of public bike sharing systems using pricing schemes. Its methodological developments are accompanied by experimental analyses with bike demand data from Capital Bikeshare program of Washington, DC. An optimized price vector determines the incentive levels that can persuade system customers to take bicycles fro...
متن کاملBike sharing systems: Solving the static rebalancing problem
This paper deals with a new problem that is a generalization of the many to many pickup and delivery problem and which is motivated by operating self-service bike sharing systems. There is only one commodity, initially distributed among the vertices of a graph, and a capacitated single vehicle aims to redistribute the commodity in order to reach a target distribution. Each vertex can be visited...
