The location selection problem for household activity pattern problem
Publication Date
January 1, 2012
Author(s)
Abstract
An integrated destination choice model based on routing and scheduling considerations of daily activities is proposed. Extending the Household Activity Pattern Problem (HAPP), the Location Selection Problem (LSP-HAPP) demonstrates how location choice is made as a simultaneous decision from interactions both with activities having predetermined locations and those with many candidate locations. A dynamic programming algorithm, developed for PDPTW, is adapted to handle a potentially sizable number of candidate locations. It is shown to be efficient for HAPP and LSPHAPP applications. The algorithm is extended to keep arrival times as functions for mathematical programming formulations of activity-based travel models that often have time variables in the objective.

Abstract
The problem of dynamic fleet management for truckload carrier fleet operations is introduced, and the principal elements of a simulation framework for the evaluation of dynamic fleet management systems are described. The application of the simulated framework to the investigation of the performance of a family of real-time fleet operational strategies, which include load acceptance, assignment, and reassign ment strategies, also is described. The simulation framework described is an example of a first-generation tool for The evaluation of dynamic fleet management systems. Selected experimental results are highlighted. These are intended to illustrate some of the issues encountered in real-time fleet management and the role of the simulation modeling environment in investigating them.

Abstract
This paper examines certain limitations and inconsistencies that are associated with the mathematical models used for the representation of the process in signalized surface street networks and in the corresponding problem of optimal signal control by investigating some representative examples that are found in the literature in conjunction to some fundamental findings from optimal control theory.

Accounting for population exposure to pollutants in the toll design problem
Proceedings of the 94th annual meeting of the transportation research board
Publication Date

Abstract
Vehicle traffic remains a major source of air pollutants that affect human health and contribute to anthropogenic climate change. These negative externalities can be reduced, in part, with the implementation of environmentally-oriented road pricing schemes. In this paper a toll design problem (TDP) is proposed for determining toll locations and levels that minimize the expected human intake of air pollutants subject to constraints on pollutant concentration levels and implementation costs. The application of the proposed problem is hindered by the computational costs associated with the evaluation of candidate solutions, as is common for network design problems (NDPs). Furthermore, given that multiple types of models (e.g., traffic assignment, emissions, and air dispersion models) would be required to evaluate a design alternative, in practice the proposed TDP could result in a black-box optimization problem. Consequently, a derivative-free surrogate-based solution algorithm is proposed for the mixed integer TDP. A numerical example is utilized to illustrate a possible application of the proposed model and test the performance of the surrogate-based algorithm. Relative to a joint simulated annealing-genetic algorithm heuristic and a genetic algorithm-based approach, the proposed algorithm found better solutions in notably fewer model function evaluations.
