Complex network theory is a multidisciplinary research direction of complexity science which
has experienced a rapid surge of interest over the last two decades. Its applications in land …

Abstract Throughout its history, Operational Research has evolved to include methods,
models and algorithms that have been applied to a wide range of contexts. This …

Abstract We solve the Integrated Network Design and Line Planning Problem in Railway
Rapid Transit systems with the objective of maximizing the net profit over a planning horizon …

Connectivity is a significant problem in large-scale transit networks because the number of
transfers required to conduct a trip is considered a discomfort by transit users. This paper …

This paper studies how to integrate rider mode preferences into the design of on-demand
multimodal transit systems (ODMTSs). It is motivated by a common worry in transit agencies …

We present a mixed integer linear program for the rapid transit network design problem with
static modal competition. Previous discrete formulations cannot handle modal competition …

The integration of subway and bus networks has become an effective solution to reduce the
growing congestion. This study presents a practical scheme of multiple subway line design …

The majority of academic studies on the optimisation of public transport routes consider
passenger trips to be fixed between pairs of stop points. This can lead to barriers in the use …

This chapter presents how the analysis of social networks supported in graph theory
contributes to the search for “distant knowledge” in the field of industrial engineering …

The design and construction of metro networks are typically conducted in stages due to the
ongoing growth of urbanization and investment in public transportation systems. Designing …
