This paper investigates an integrated freeway traffic management system, which coordinates both dynamic toll pricing and ramp control strategies for the purpose of dynamic freeway congestion management. The proposed integrated dynamic toll-ramp control methodology is built mainly on the...

This paper proposes a method for designing a seamless centralized emergency supply network by integrating three sub-networks (shelter network, medical network, and distribution network) to support emergency logistics operations in response to large-scale natural disasters. The proposed method...

This work proposes a post-disaster demand-oriented emergency logistics operational model that aims at disaster relief–service distribution to maximize survivor resilience. Rooted in survival psychology and cognition theories, this work proposes a conceptual model which hypothesizes...

In this paper, train scheduling problem (TSCP) is discussed for the case of single-track railway corridor, in which variable sensitivity on train delay are discussed in detailed for different types of trains. The mathematical model is a complicated nonlinear mixed-integer programming. The object...

Real-time section-wide lane traffic variables such as density and lane-changing are vital to traffic control and management in urban areas. They can be used as decision variables to determine traffic control and management strategies in real time as well as characterize road traffic congestion...

This paper presents a hybrid neuro-fuzzy methodology to identify appropriate global logistics (GL) operational modes used for global supply chain management. The proposed methodological framework includes three main developmental phases: (1) establishment of a GL strategic hierarchy, (2)...
