How to identify critical nodes in metro networks is still an open and vital topic in complex
networks, which has been a key issue in analyzing the structural organization of a network …

An increasing number of studies have attempted to build a multiplex network (MN) model to
generalize the traditional network theory and have proposed various centrality measures for …

With the development of complex networks in urban rail transit (URT), the topological
structure changes accordingly and node importance also redistributes dynamically …

In this paper, we propose an improved network centrality measure framework that takes into
account both the topological characteristics and the geometric properties of a road network …

Public transport networks (PTNs) undertake large amount of passenger demand in the
urban transport system. Particularly, stations in metro networks with high significance in …

Inspiring by the theory of degree entropy, and considering both the location of the evaluated
node and its neighboring nodes in an unweighted urban rail transit network (URTN), a new …

Studying the topology of a rail transit network based on complex network theory is of great
significance for identifying the weak links of the network and improving the network's …

Metro systems are critical public transport elements in several metropolitan areas around the
world. Unexpected disruptions may undermine service provision of metro systems, and thus …

Recently, cities have become larger and larger, and more and more people are living in
large cities. This phenomenon has caused serious traffic congestion which is very …

A transportation network is an essential lifeline engineering system, and its reliability is
critical when faced with natural or man-made disasters. The reliability of the transportation …
