In this paper, we propose a car-following model to explore the influences of the electric vehicle’s driving range on the driving behavior under four traffic situations. The numerical results illustrate that the electric vehicle’s behavior of exchanging battery at the charge station can...

This study empirically examines the impact of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and clean energy adoption on carbon footprints. With growing concerns over climate change and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the transition to electric vehicles and clean energy sources has gained significant...

Time invariance of factor loadings is a standard assumption in the analysis of large factor models. Yet, this assumption may be restrictive unless parameter shifts are mild (i.e., local to zero). In this paper we develop a new testing procedure to detect big breaks in these loadings at either...

We have proved a new rotational sorting algorithm capable of reducing the complexity of data assignment process embedded in the maximum likelihood (ML)-based solution of a multitarget tracking problem from O(N3) of the conventional Hungarian type routines to O(N2) provided that the bearings-only...

This paper addresses the theoretical analysis of synchronization between two complex networks with nonidentical topological structures. By designing effective adaptive controllers, we achieve synchronization between two complex networks. Both the cases of identical and nonidentical network...

Alibaba’s Taobao is China’s dominant C2C e-commerce platform. Relying on novel transaction level data from its electronics category, this paper examines the roles of distance as well as seller and buyer experience in Chinese e-commerce. Our estimate of a gravity model shows that the distance...
