As a foreseeable future mode of transport with lower emissions and higher efficiencies, electric vehicles have received worldwide attention. For convenient centralized management, taxis are considered as the fleet with electrification priority. In this work, we focus on the study on electric taxis dispatching, with consideration of picking up customers and recharging, based on real world traffic data of a large number of taxis in Beijing. First, the assumed electric taxi charging stations are located using the K mean method. Second, based on the station locations and the order demands, which are in form of origin-destination pairs and extracted from the trajectory data, a dispatching strategy as well as the simulation framework is developed with consideration of reducing customer waiting time, mitigating electric taxi charging congestion, and balancing order number distribution among electric taxis. The proposed method models the electric taxi charging behaviors temporally discretely from the aspects of charging demands and availability of chargers, and further incorporates a centralized and intelligent fleet dispatching platform, which is capable of handling taxi service requests and arranging electric taxis recharging in real time. The methodology in this paper is readily applicable to dispatching of different types of electric vehicle fleet with similar dataset available. Among the method, we use queueing theory to model the electric vehicle charging station waiting phenomena and include this factor into dispatching platform. Carbon emission is also surveyed and analyzed.

Given the rise of electric vehicle (EV) adoption, supported by government policies and dropping technology prices, new challenges arise in the modeling and operation of electric transportation. In this paper, we present a model for solving the EV rou ting problem while accounting for real-life stochastic demand behavior. We present a mathematical formulation that minimizes travel time and energy costs of an EV fleet. The EV is represented by a battery energy consumption model. To adapt our formulation to real-life scenarios, customer pick-ups and drop-offs were modeled as stochastic parameters. A chance-constrained optimization model is proposed for addressing pick-ups and drop-offs uncertainties. Computational validation of the model is provided based on representative transportation scenarios. Results obtained showed a quick convergence of our model with verifiable solutions. Finally, the impact of electric vehicles charging is validated in Downtown Manhattan, New York by assessing the effect on the distribution grid.
This paper presents a distributed optimization algorithm tailored for solving optimal control problems arising in multi-building coordination. The buildings coordinated by a grid operator, join a demand response program to balance the voltage surge b y using an energy cost defined criterion. In order to model the hierarchical structure of the building network, we formulate a distributed convex optimization problem with separable objectives and coupled affine equality constraints. A variant of the Augmented Lagrangian based Alternating Direction Inexact Newton (ALADIN) method for solving the considered class of problems is then presented along with a convergence guarantee. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compare it to the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) by running both an ALADIN and an ADMM based model predictive controller on a benchmark case study.
We propose a reachability approach for infinite and finite horizon multi-objective optimization problems for low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design. The main advantage of the proposed method is that the Pareto front can be efficiently constructed fr om the zero level set of the solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. We demonstrate the proposed method by applying it to a low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design problem. By deriving the analytic expression for the Hamiltonian and the optimal control policy, we are able to efficiently compute the backward reachable set and reconstruct the optimal trajectories. Furthermore, we show that any reconstructed trajectory will be guaranteed to be weakly Pareto optimal. The proposed method can be used as a benchmark for future research of applying reachability analysis to low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design.
The integration of energy systems such as electricity and gas grids and power and thermal grids can bring significant benefits in terms of system security, reliability, and reduced emissions. Another alternative coupling of sectors with large potenti al benefits is the power and transportation networks. This is primarily due to the increasing use of electric vehicles (EV) and their demand on the power grid. Besides, the production and operating costs of EVs and battery technologies are steadily decreasing, while tax credits for EV purchase and usage are being offered to users in developed countries. The power grid is also undergoing major upgrades and changes with the aim of ensuring environmentally sustainable grids. These factors influence our work. We present a new operating model for an integrated EV-grid system that incorporates a set of aggregators (owning a fleet of EVs) with partial access to the distribution grid. Then, the Cooperative Game Theory is used to model the behavior of the system. The Core is used to describe the stability of the interaction between these aggregators, and the Shapley value is used to assign costs to them. The results obtained show the benefit of cooperation, which could lead to an overall reduction in energy consumption, reduced operating costs for electric vehicles and the distribution grid, and, in some cases, the additional monetary budget available to reinforce the transmission and grid infrastructures.
With the rising demand of smart mobility, ride-hailing service is getting popular in the urban regions. These services maintain a system for serving the incoming trip requests by dispatching available vehicles to the pickup points. As the process sho uld be socially and economically profitable, the task of vehicle dispatching is highly challenging, specially due to the time-varying travel demands and traffic conditions. Due to the uneven distribution of travel demands, many idle vehicles could be generated during the operation in different subareas. Most of the existing works on vehicle dispatching system, designed static relocation centers to relocate idle vehicles. However, as traffic conditions and demand distribution dynamically change over time, the static solution can not fit the evolving situations. In this paper, we propose a dynamic future demand aware vehicle dispatching system. It can dynamically search the relocation centers considering both travel demand and traffic conditions. We evaluate the system on real-world dataset, and compare with the existing state-of-the-art methods in our experiments in terms of several standard evaluation metrics and operation time. Through our experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed system significantly improves the serving ratio and with a very small increase in operation cost.
