An Alternative Fuel for Motor Vehicles
The unprecedented increase in oil prices has researchers scrambling for alternative fuel sources. This crisis gives environmentally conscious researchers a new argument in favor of renewable energy. Unfortunately, most renewable energy sources are either inefficient or too expensive. Vehicles around the world are creating a massive environmental problem. Researchers are now looking for an econo...
متن کاملA Demand Forecasting System for Clean-Fuel Vehicles
This paper describes an ongoing project to develop a demand forecasting model for clean-fuel vehicles in California. Large-scale surveys of both households and commercial fleet operators have been carried out. These data are being used to calibrate a new micro-simulation based vehicle demand forecasting system. Based on pre-specified attributes of future vehicles (including specified clean-fuel...
متن کاملModeling the Environmental Benefits of Alternative Fuel Vehicles and Transportation Demand Policies
Mobility and energy use in the transportation sector -cars, trucks, trains and planes -is a major source of air pollution. Air pollutant emissions from cars and trucks are particularly problematic because they occur near the ground, often in densely in populated areas. For example, they contribute to the formation of ground-level ozone, a problem in urban areas in various regions of the country...
متن کاملFleet management for autonomous vehicles
The VIPAFLEET project consists in developing models and algorithms for managing a fleet of Individual Public Autonomous Vehicles (VIPA). Hereby, we consider a fleet of cars distributed at specified stations in an industrial area to supply internal transportation, where the cars can be used in different modes of circulation (tram mode, elevator mode, taxi mode). One goal is to develop and implem...
