Since the mid-2000s, electric vehicles have gained popularity in several countries even
though their market share is still relatively low. However, most gains have been made in the …

Optimization through meta-heuristics in electric vehicular (EV) transport has emerged as the
key to improve the existing technologies and pave way for their mass deployment and …

Introduction of electric vehicles (EVs) or plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in the road
transportation can significantly reduce the carbon emission. Hence, the demand of EVs is …

Abstract The Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP) consists of designing vehicle routes and
schedules for customers with special needs and/or disabilities. The DARP with Electric …

The increased adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in the daily life of consumers have led
towards the emergence of greener smart cities. However, the problem of energy stability, ie …

In order to address the inconvenience of having to stop to charge the battery of an electric
vehicle, wireless on-road charging technology, also known as charge-while-driving, has …

The increasing concern over global warming has led to the rapid development of the electric
vehicle industry. Electric vehicles (EVs) have the potential to reduce the greenhouse effect …

We introduce a practically important and theoretically challenging problem: finding the
minimum cost path for PHEVs in a road network with refueling and charging stations. We …

Eco-friendly navigation (aka eco-routing) finds a route from A to B in a road network that
minimizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission or fuel/energy consumption of the traveling …

Vehicle routing is traditionally based on Dijkstra or Dijkstra‐like algorithms. These
algorithms worked well for fossil fuel vehicles. The increase in pollution levels, government …
