Incentives and redistribution in homogeneous bike-sharing systems with stations of finite capacity

C Fricker, N Gast - Euro journal on transportation and logistics, 2016 - Springer
Bike-sharing systems are becoming important for urban transportation. In these systems,
users arrive at a station, pick up a bike, use it for a while, and then return it to another station …

Mean field analysis for inhomogeneous bike sharing systems

C Fricker, N Gast, H Mohamed - Discrete Mathematics & …, 2012 - dmtcs.episciences.org
In the paper, bike sharing systems with stations having a finite capacity are studied as
stochastic networks. The inhomogeneity is modeled by clusters. We use a mean field limit to …

Equivalence of ensembles for large vehicle-sharing models

C Fricker, D Tibi - 2017 - projecteuclid.org
For a class of large closed Jackson networks submitted to capacity constraints, asymptotic
independence of the nodes in normal traffic phase is proved at stationarity under mild …

Modelling a vehicle-sharing station as a dual waiting system: stochastic framework and stationary analysis

F Leurent - 2012 - hal.science
A waiting system with two kinds of resources, say the vehicles and the docks in a vehicle-
sharing service, is considered. Two arrival flows of customers are assumed, access …

Queueing analysis of a large-scale bike sharing system through mean-field theory

QL Li, C Chen, RN Fan, L Xu, JY Ma - arXiv preprint arXiv:1603.09560, 2016 - arxiv.org
The bike sharing systems are fast increasing as a public transport mode in urban short trips,
and have been developed in many major cities around the world. A major challenge in the …

Fluid and diffusion limits for bike sharing systems

QL Li, ZY Qian, RN Fan - … , QTNA 2017, Qinhuangdao, China, August 21 …, 2017 - Springer
Bike sharing systems have rapidly developed around the world, and they are served as a
promising strategy to improve urban traffic congestion and to decrease polluting gas …

An Incentive Algorithm for a Closed Stochastic Network: Data and Mean-Field Analysis

B Marin Moreno, C Fricker, H Mohamed, A Philippe… - La Matematica, 2024 - Springer
The paper deals with a load-balancing algorithm for a closed stochastic network with two
zones with different demands. The algorithm is motivated by an incentive algorithm for …

Two-choice regulation in heterogeneous closed networks

C Fricker, N Servel - Queueing Systems, 2016 - Springer
A heterogeneous closed network with N one-server queues with finite capacity and one
infinite-server queue is studied. A target application is bike-sharing systems. Heterogeneity …
