de Oña and Nash 2 A PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE PRICING METHODOLOGY FOR MIXED - USE RAIL NETWORKS
A pricing methodology adapted to specific railroad infrastructures and the trains that use them is one way to ensure that railroad networks used by several different operators are used optimally. The diversity of railway networks (new lines and old lines) and services (long-distance and suburban passenger trains, freight trains, etc.) make it difficult to develop such a pricing methodology. Thi...
متن کاملLoad Quantification for Light Rail, Heavy Rail, and Commuter Rail Transit Infrastructure
The type and magnitude of loads passing through the track superstructure have a great impact on both the design and the performance of concrete sleepers and fastening systems. To date, the majority of North American research focusing on quantifying rail infrastructure loading conditions has been conducted on heavy-haul freight railroads. However, the results and recommendations from these studi...
متن کاملOptimal Electricity Pricing for Societal Infrastructure Systems
We develop a general framework for pricing electricity in order to optimally manage the electricity load of societal infrastructures that interact with power systems through their price-responsive electricity load. In such infrastructure systems, electricity is not the sole resource needed to serve users’ needs. Examples include cloud computing infrastructure or electric transportation networks...
متن کاملLiquid Pricing for Digital Infrastructure Services
Broadband access providers today have an overcapacity in infrastructure, while their service penetration remains low. This has led to the introduction of intermediate service levels, so that first-time consumers start experiencing the benefits of these new services. We analyze the effect of a novel pricing scheme, called 'liquid bandwidth', whereby customers can upgrade their services for a sma...
متن کاملDynamic pricing for passenger groups of high-speed rail transportation
The widespread high-speed rail has become an important transportation mode for tourists in China, who travel primarily in groups. With more attractive price, railway operators may be able to expand ridership, improve customer satisfaction, and ultimately increase revenue. The traditional pricing method for passenger groups, however, is relatively simple, inflexible, which may lead to profit los...
