| book description |

In the face of urbanization and growing transportation demands, ""Demand-Responsive Transit Systems: Operation and Management Solutions"" offers a comprehensive exploration of the innovative strategies and technologies shaping the future of public transit. Authored by industry experts Kai Liu and Tao Liu, this book is an essential resource for transit professionals, urban planners, and policy makers. Leverage the power of data and innovation to revolutionize demand-responsive transit (DRT) systems. This book delves into optimal routing design utilizing aggregated cell phone data and open-source GIS tools, alongside iterated clustering optimization for effective stop locating and bus routing. Discover how customized commuter bus routes can significantly reduce carbon emissions and how pricing strategies can be optimized by considering passenger loyalty decay. The book also explores the design of intelligent platoon transit systems aimed at transportation electrification, and modular bus unit scheduling under range and charging constraints. Further, it provides insights into the formation and scheduling optimization for electric modular buses with station-based demand responsiveness. Additionally, it highlights the coordinated operation of fixed-route and demand-responsive feeder transit services in travel corridors. These advanced strategies and practical applications are essential for enhancing operational efficiency and achieving sustainable urban mobility, making this book an indispensable resource for professionals in the field.
