Abstract:
AbstractThis paper offers a theoretical and empirical model of ecosystem-based fishery management. A multi-species and multi-fleet model integrating Lotka–Volterra trophic dynamics as well as production and profit assessments is developed and applied to the coastal fishery of French Guiana. This small-scale fishery constitutes a challenging example with high fish biodiversity, several non-selective fleets and a potentially increasing local food demand due to demographic growth. The dynamic model is calibrated with 13 species and four fleets using monthly catch and effort data from 2006 to 2009. Several contrasted fishing scenarios including status quo, total closure, economic and viable strategies are then simulated. They are compared from the viewpoints of both biodiversity preservation and socioeconomic performance, assuming fixed landing prices and fixed costs. We show that fishing outputs, including food supply and fleet profitability, can be sustained on average but a loss of species cannot be avoided.

Abstract:
Policy makers predict that autonomous vehicles will have significant market penetration in the next decade or so. In several simulation studies shared autonomous vehicle fleets have been shown to be effective public transit alternatives. This study compared the effectiveness of a shared autonomous vehicle fleet with an upcoming transit project proposed in New York City, the Brooklyn–Queens Connector light rail project. The study developed an event-based simulation model to compare the performance of the shared autonomous vehicle system with the light rail system under the same demand patterns, route alignment, and operating speeds. The simulation experiments revealed that a shared autonomous vehicle fleet of 500 vehicles of 12-person capacity (consistent with the EZ10 vehicle) would be needed to match the 39-vehicle light rail system if operated as a fixed-route system. However, as a demand-responsive system, a fleet of only 150 vehicles would lead to the same total travel time (22 min) as the 39-vehicle fleet light rail system. Furthermore, a fleet of 450 12-person vehicles in a demand-responsive operation would have the same average wait times while reducing total travel times by 36%. The implications for system resiliency, idle vehicle allocation, and vehicle modularity are discussed.

Quota allocation in mixed fisheries: a bioeconomic modelling approach applied to the Channel flatfish fisheries. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 68: 1580–1591. A simulation modelling approach is used to assess the respective performances of different regimes of quota allocation (fixed or transferable), quota ownership (owned or not by fishers), and taxation for catching fish above quota. The simulations account for a variety of fleet behaviours (ranging from fixed by tradition to dynamic economics-driven). The modelling framework is applied to the Channel flatfish mixed fisheries. Transferable quota allocation regimes would particularly benefit small netters and beam trawlers, which would achieve a profit of €50–150 million without compromising the conservation of eastern Channel sole, but it could impair the sustainability of other stocks. If quota is owned by fishers, the least fishing-efficient fleet stops fishing, but makes substantial profit from leasing quotas to beam trawlers and to small and large netters, which remain actively fishing. The highest economic return for quota owners (€200–300 million) is achieved when effort allocation is fixed by tradition. The profit achieved by small netters is greatest when fleets are almost entirely economics-driven. Increasing overquota landing taxes generally leads to conservation benefits for all stocks, but at the expense of lower profitability for the fishery overall.

Abstract Maravelias, C. D., Hillary, R., Haralabous, J., and Tsitsika, E. V. 2010. Stochastic bioeconomic modelling of alternative management measures for anchovy in the Mediterranean Sea. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 67: 1291–1300. The purse-seine fishery for anchovy in the Aegean Sea consists of two main fleet segments (12–24 and 24–40 m vessels); this paper investigates economically and biologically preferable effort and capacity scenarios for the fishery. Attention is paid to a bioeconomic analysis of fleets composed of segments with varying levels of efficiency (in terms of catch rate) and costs (fixed and variable) and the role this might play in optimal effort allocation at a fleet level. An age-structured stochastic bioeconomic operating model for Aegean anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) is constructed. It attempts to account robustly for the multiple uncertainties in the system, including (i) the effort–fishing mortality relationship, (ii) the selectivity, and (iii) the stock–recruit dynamics of the population. A method is proposed for determining the economically optimal level of long-term effort in a fishery such as this, with similar characteristics in terms of stock dynamics, fishery, and markets. Lower values of effort and capacity are predicted to yield greater future profit when viewing the fleet in its entirety, but even lower values may be advisable to maintain the long-term biological integrity of the stock. The results may prove useful in balancing the productivity of the stock with the harvesting capacity of the fleet, while managing to ensure the long-term profitability of the fleet along with the sustainability of the resource.

Abstract:
This paper presents a new combinatorial optimization problem, the inventory routing problem with priorities, and a fixed heterogeneous fleet. In this problem, a particular set of customers has to be served before the rest of the customers using vehicles with different capacities. The problem is inspired by the current situation faced by a specialized gas distribution company in the northeast region of Mexico. The company produces and distributes three main products, although this paper focuses only on the oxygen distribution problem. The company delivers oxygen to industrial customers, as well as hospitals and other medical facilities. Due to Mexican government regulations, the company requires prioritizing deliveries to hospitals and medical facilities over its industrial customers. Therefore, the company is obliged to satisfy the customers demand considering inventory levels and priority constraints while minimizing the inventory and routing cost. An integer programming model is proposed to solve the problem. The model minimizes the total distribution cost while considering inventory level, priority constraints, and a fixed fleet of vehicles with different capacities. Finally, computational experiments were carried out using benchmark instances to validate the correctness of the proposed model and to analyze the effect of priorities on the total distribution cost. Finally, actual customers of the company were selected to show the effectiveness of the proposed model to solve real-world problems.

Abstract:
The increasing volume of traffic in urban areas has resulted in steady growth of the mean driving time on fixed routes. Longer driving times lead to significantly higher transportation costs, particularly for vehicle fleets, where efficiency in the distribution of their transport tasks is important in staying competitive in the market. For bus fleets, the optimal control and command of the vehicles is, as well as the economic requirements, a basic function of their general mission. The Global Positioning System (GPS) allows reliable and accurate positioning of public transport vehicles except within the physical limitations imposed by built-up city ‘urban canyons’. With a view to the next generation of satellite positioning systems for public transport fleet management, this paper highlights the limitations imposed on current GPS systems operating in the urban canyon. The capabilities of a future positioning system operating in this type of environment are discussed. It is suggested that such a system could comprise receivers capable of integrating the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Russian equivalent, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), and relatively cheap dead-reckoning sensors.

Abstract:
Limited-Stop (LS) bus services have recently proved to be essential for improving user welfare and reducing operators’ costs in many cities. The design of LS services has been mainly focused on increasing fleet efficiency and reducing the passengers’ travel time. In this work, we change the focus of LS service design towards the user’s comfort. Given a fixed-size fleet (fixed costs) and a fixed demand on a very high-frequency bus corridor, we propose an algorithm to minimize the peak load profile, combining the usual All-Stop (AS) and one additional LS service, finding the set of stops for the LS service and the fleet split. The strategy is proved in a set of statistically generated corridors, showing average capacity reductions > 20% at a cost of a marginal travel time increase. Analyzing the peak value in the load profile of all simulated corridors, the number of cases where the majority of users would find a seat on the bus increases from 15% to 53%, making the services much more attractive without increasing the costs.

Abstract:
Efficiently designed limited-stop transit service is an attractive way to respond to high commuter travel demand in which trips concentrate on a few origin–destination pairs during peak hours. Such service is redesigned in many metropolises in China. Some research has dealt with this situation; bus fleet size was assumed to be unlimited, and the research was concerned with the average daily passenger flow rather than the specific average peak hour travel demand. In contrast to previous work, this paper presents an approach to design limited-stop transit service with the existing available fleet size from current normal service and focuses only on peak hour travel demand extracted through exploitation of transit data. First, a model for limited-stop service was proposed to minimize user costs through existing fixed fleet size. A heuristic algorithm was developed to search the transit line structure for limited-stop service instead of selecting lines from the predefined set. Next, a case in Chengdu, China, was tested. The results indicate that up to 9.32% of total travel time can be saved with the fixed fleet size when limited-stop transit service is applied. Finally, different proportions of commuter flow and different travel behaviors are discussed to illustrate the performance of limited-stop service for different scenarios.

The Heterogeneous Fixed Fleet Vehicle Routing Problem (HFFVRP) is a variant of vehicle routing problem (VRP). Unlike classical VRP, the HFFVRP considers a fixed size of fleet with different types and variable costs of vehicles. In this paper, we apply Backtracking Adaptive Threshold Accepting (BATA) for solving HFFVRP. According to characteristic of the problem, we developed a vehicle type improvement mechanism which can find a neighborhood solution with a better vehicle type combination. Our proposed meta-heuristic is tested on a set of 18 benchmark instances including 8 instances from Taillard, 5 instances from Li et al. and 5 instances from Brandao. Results showed that our proposed methods have generated 1 best know solution (BKS). The average deviation of all the tested instances is 3.04%.

The Heterogeneous Fixed Fleet Vehicle Routing Problem (HFFVRP) is a variant of the conventional Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). Compared with VRP, HFFVRP considers a fixed size of fleet with different types and variable costs of vehicles. There are three steps in our proposed Meta-heuristics. At first, we adopted the Route First-Cluster Second method with considering average cost of used full loading vehicle types to construct the initial solution. And then use Cross exchange, 2-Opt*, US, 2-Opt and Or-Opt to improve the initial solution. Finally, we applied Restart Threshold Accepting to escape the local optimal solution. Moreover, we also conducted some multiple-start solution experiments to solve HFFVRP. We compared our best results with best known solutions (BKS) of HFFVRP benchmark instances. It showed that our proposed methods have generated 2 breakthrough solutions and 5 reaching BKS. The average deviation of all the tested instances is 1.10%.

In order to fulfill the customer requirements, the fixed-route carriers build up the operational framework consisting of intra-network and extra-network to improve their efficiency of distribution. However, the route arrangement of the intra-network is very complicated, and related research is scarce. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a model, named as the Interhub Heterogeneous Fleet Routing Problem (IHFRP), to deal with the route design of intra-network for the fixed route carriers. In addition, we proposed a threshold-based meta-heuristic procedure, TA_IHFRP, to be capable of solving the IHFRP. The proposed TA_IHFRP procedure is composed of two-stage strategies and three executive modules in solving the IHFRP. In the first stage, the Initial Solution Construction (ISC) module adopts modified insertion heuristics to generate a feasible initial solution under the objective of minimizing used vehicle numbers. Then, in the second stage, the Neighborhood Search (NS) module and Threshold Accepting (TA) module are utilized to improve the vehicle usage cost and the traveling distance of previous initial solution. The NS module includes three heuristics: 1-0 inter-route O-D pair exchange, 1-1 inter-route O-D pair exchange, and route reduction. Moreover, we design a Route Reconstruction sub-procedure in the NS and TA modules to improve the efficiency of execution. In order to identify the feasibility of TA_IHFRP, we created a set of 36 IHFRP instances, coded the computer program of the proposed TA_IHFRP in Visual C# 2005 and conducted the computational tests on a Core(TM)2 Due PC. Experimental results indicated that the proposed TA_IHFRP is an efficient and effective method to solve the IHFRP. Furthermore, the IHFRP model also provides a considerable way to reduce the operational cost of the fixed-route carriers.

Abstract:
A shared mobility service (SMS) under ring shape would combine the principle of service cycle along a fixed route (as in a transit line) and a fairly important territorial coverage, assuming that every user would accept to walk on some length to and from the service. Thus, service availability can be optimised, detours are avoided, vehicles achieve higher productivity. The synergy between the ring-shaped infrastructure and the vehicle fleet enables to optimise the quality of service in terms of access time and ride time, and also to reduce production costs - and therefore the tariff fares, under suitable regulation. The chapter aims to reveal these ‘systemic qualities’ of ring-shaped SMSs by providing a mathematical model called ‘Orbicity’. It has a four-fold architecture: (i) traffic operations, (ii) supply-demand equilibrium under elastic demand, (iii) service management with endogenous fleet size and fare rate, (iv) service policy in terms of technology (vehicle type, number of places, energy vector, driving technology) and also the regulation regime. After outlining the model for ring-shaped shuttle services, we explore a set of scenarios along two axes of technological generation and regulation regime. It appears that ring-shaped shuttle services could be supplied at very affordable prices, while achieving profitability and requiring no public subsidies.

Abstract:
Combine harvesters play a crucial role in grain harvest. Due to seasonal character of work of these machines is necessary to achieve high standard in durability and reliability during working period. There is lots of requirements that have to be done according to the crop type, field conditions and as well as high performance and lower costs. Combine harvesters are the main harvesting technology of cereals in the world and main piece of work should be done in short time. The aim of this paper is an economic analysis of combine harvester’s fleet in different working conditions. The evaluation is based on exact costs analysis of combine harvesters New Holland brand sort by different ages and different concepts of threshing. Used data were collected during all working seasons of combines. There is a data set from 10 seasons. There is two groups in evaluation - 9 machines NH CR 9080 and another 9 machines NH CX 8080. Working parameters evaluated are fuel consumption and operational costs. Thanks to on board computer we have data about performance of each machine per day and per whole season. Costs are calculated as fixed and variable and then summarized for every machine. The result shows that effect of costs analysis depends on annual performance of the machine. There is positive effect on depressing fixed cost due to higher performance in season. A special result of this study is evidence of intervenes reason during all seasons and setting up the coefficient of repairs for the group of combines.

Abstract:
The Systems Availability Model (SAM) is a program designed to assess the Availability, Reliability and Maintainability (ARandM) characteristics of multiple systems used over operating scenarios that place varying demands upon those systems, such as that encountered in complex military, commercial shipping, industrial installations and deployed systems of systems. The unique ability of SAM to overlay system dependencies onto complex mission profiles makes it a uniquely powerful and flexible ARandM modelling tool. Mission profiles are built up from a variety of activities, each demanding use of different combinations of equipment, rather than a fixed time at risk approach adopted by many simpler modelling tools. This paper and associated presentation discusses: • The unique capabilities of SAM and, at a high level, how a SAM model is developed and its crossindustry applications; • The use of SAM to set system/equipment requirements, and understand the impact of equipment reliability on a fleet of ships undergoing complex operating scenarios; • Reflecting changes to mission requirements, and the knock-on effect of predicted performance; • How SAM can be used to understand the significance of individual systems during safety critical activities (e.g. replenishment at sea, close water navigation).

Abstract:
This paper presents a design case for arctic LNG transport, where liquefied gas is shipped from the Kharasevey terminal in Northern Russia to markets in US and Europe. Based on a fleet simulation model, the trade-off between the two main performance issues related to arctic transport are investigated; namely how to maintain transport system integrity in the harsh ice conditions, while maximizing the capacity utilization in a situation with considerable seasonal variations. The fixed contract, single destination base case shows that meeting the requirements for a robust solution implies a low degree of utilization in the summer season. To improve upon this situation, several mitigating strategies are evaluated, including vessel speed and size changes, fixed and seasonally varying contract and market mix schedules, revision stop rescheduling, storage capacity extensions and backhauling. The results indicate a high payoff from renegotiating the initial fixed schedule contract to allow for a higher degree of seasonal variations in the LNG deliveries. Further, increased storage capacity in loading port, combined with winter revision stops will have a significant impact on both fleet utilization and total system integrity. Flexible contracts that implies seasonal deliveries to the UK will help ensure continuous production and deliveries in winter season. Finally, surplus capacity gives opportunities for seasonal spot cargoes that could be exploited to increase fleet utilization rate.

Abstract:
The first-mile, last-mile problem is a significant deterrent for potential transit riders, especially in suburban neighborhoods with low density. Transit agencies have typically sought to solve this problem by adding parking spaces near transit stations and adding stops to connect riders to fixed-route transit. However, these measures are often only short-term solutions. In the last few years, transit agencies have tested whether new mobility services, such as ridehailing, ridesharing, and microtransit, can offer fast, reliable connections to and from transit stations. However, there is limited research that evaluates the potential impacts of these projects. Concurrently, there is growing interest in the future of automated vehicles (AVs) and the potential of AVs to solve this first-mile problem by reducing the cost of providing these new mobility services to promote access to transit. This paper expands upon existing research to model the simulate the travel and revenue impacts of a fleet of automated vehicles that provide transit access services in the San Francisco Bay Area offered over a range of fares. The model simulates a fleet of AVs for first-mile transit access at different price points for three different service models (door-to-door ridehailing and ridesharing and meeting point ridesharing services). These service models include home-based drop-off and pick-up for single passenger service (e.g., Uber and Lyft), home-based drop-off and pick-up for multi-passenger service (e.g., microtransit), and meeting point multi-passenger service (e.g., Via).
