Electrified vehicles (EVs) couple transportation and electrical infrastructures, impacting vehicle sustainability, transportation resiliency, and electrical grid stability. These impacts occur across timescales; grid stability at the millisecond scale, resiliency at the daily scale, and sustainability over years and decades. Integrated models of these systems must share data to explore timescal...

in this paper, a novel multi-objective bus stop location model is proposed, which considers not only the coverage of demand and minimization of access time but also the necessities of suitable stops for transit network design phase. three objective functions are considered including minimizing (i) sum of the total access distance (time), (ii) the weighted combination of stops, and (iii) the num...

The exponential degree distribution has been found in many real world complex networks, based on which, the random growing process has been introduced to analyze the formation principle of such kind of networks. Inspired from the nonequilibrium network theory, we construct the network according to two mechanisms: growing and adjacent random attachment. By using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test (KST)...

proposing a robust designed facility location is one of the most effective ways to hedge against unexpected disruptions and failures in a transportation network system. this paper considers the combined facility location/network design problem with regard to transportation link disruptions and develops a mixed integer linear programming formulation to model it. with respect to the probability o...

this paper proposes a flexible power electronic transformer (fpet) for the application in the micro-grids. the low frequency transformer is usually used at the point of common coupling (pcc) to connect the low voltage grid and utility network to each other. the conventional 50hz transformer results in enhanced low voltage-grid power management system during grid-connected operation. in this pap...

The rise of electric vehicles (EVs) has a massive impact on the electricity grid due to electrification in transportation sector. As result, various techniques are needed minimize effects charging grid. One these is having intelligent coordination between components EV network. This ensures that network enough support needs vehicles. article provides an overview many aspects industry and its in...

the existing works considering the flow-based discount factor in the hub and spoke problems, assume that increasing the amount of flow passing through each edge of network continuously decreases the unit flow transportation cost. although a higher volume of flow allows for using wider links and consequently cheaper transportation, but the unit of flow enjoys more discounts, quite like replacing...

logistic network design is one of the most important strategic decisions in supply chain management that has recently attracted the attention of many researchers. transportation network design is then one of the most important fields of logistic network. this study is concerned with designing a multi-stage and multi-product logistic network. at first, a mixed integer nonlinear programming model...
