However, their integrated economic impact on operators, users, environment, and society have been little explored. This paper presents a cost-benefit analysis methodology, incorporating a flow-based integer programming model, to assess the viability of SAEV services in a regional interurban context. The case study is based on mobility data from the Aveiro and Coimbra regions (Portugal). We evaluate the replacement of all motorized intermunicipal trips with various SAEV configurations, including automated cars (with and without pooling), automated minibuses, and a mixed fleet (cars and minibuses). Results indicate that SAEV providers can achieve profitability with fares ranging from €0.08 to €0.36 per kilometer. Even at these rates, SAEV services generate economic benefits for users, particularly pooled car-based services, as private car expenses dominate current mobility costs. Additionally, all SAEV configurations contribute to cost reductions related to air pollution, noise, global warming potential, and road accidents, with pooled services offering the greatest savings. A series of SAEV transition scenarios using a fleet of pooled cars also demonstrated benefits for all stakeholders, albeit lower than those from fully replacing motorized trips. A second sensitivity analysis confirms that reducing vehicle acquisition costs is key to lowering fares and increasing user savings. This paper represents one of the first evaluations of large-scale SAEV services for intermunicipal trips with significant distances between urban centers, contributing insights into smart and sustainable transportation solutions for such contexts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"19 6","pages":"Pages 500-516"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144510666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study assessed the effectiveness of bicycle highways in reducing exposure to particulate matters (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) in Beijing, China. Real-world measurements were conducted along three representative cycling routes connecting same working and residential areas, that is, route bicycle highways (RB), route arterials (RA), and route collectors (RC). Compared to RA and RC, RB are slightly longer (3.86% and 7.71%, respectively) but offer shorter travel times (1.28% and 4.79%, respectively). Notably, vertical-separated paths on RB significantly reduce concentration by up to 23.08% compared to vegetation-protected lanes. Although higher concentrations are observed near construction sites and transportation facilities, the absence of intersections on RB reduces exposure by 5.47% and 6.75% compared to RA and RC, respectively. A notable disparity between exposure hotspots and heavily polluted areas highlights the complex interactions of external factors, such as meteorological conditions, traffic patterns, and built environments. Linear and non-linear regression analyses (<em>via</em> OLS and XGBoost–SHAP) elaborate the significant contributions of meteorological conditions, traffic patterns, road design, and land use in shaping on-road exposures. These findings suggest the urgent need for an exposure-focused evaluation approach in bicycle infrastructure planning. By considering the complicated effects caused by these external factors, policymakers can develop targeted strategies to mitigate exposure risks and promote safer and healthier cycling environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"19 6","pages":"Pages 481-499"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144510664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicate that GDP contributes to increased climate vulnerability, whereas the combined effect of GDP and RE reduces climate vulnerability in most countries. When RE is introduced as a moderating factor, the relationship between GDP and climate vulnerabilities shifts from a U-shaped to an inverted U-shaped curve.

Traditional online real-time charging scheduling, often relying on receding horizon policies, overlooks critical challenges posed by the asynchronous nature of EV arrivals and departures. Specifically, these strategies struggle to effectively handle two distinct types of charging sessions: those already connected in real-time with known parameters, and those yet to connect but anticipated within a prediction horizon, characterized by higher uncertainty compromising scheduling efficiency. To fill these gaps, this article proposes Padding-Asynchronous-arrivals, Transition-probabilities-Captured, Heterogenous-horizons-aware (PATCH), a novel framework for EV scheduling. In the first Padding-Asynchronous-arrivals (PA) module, by detecting real-time connected sessions and padding future arrivals, PATCH prepares for optimal charging allocation. In the second Transition-probabilities-Captured (TA) module, the charging scheduling is formulated as a Markov decision process (MDP), leveraging the deterministic arrival time of real-time sessions to accurately model transition probabilities and distinguish uncertainties. The final Heterogenous-horizons-aware (H) module ensures that each session’s charging requirements are met prior to departure, while dynamically adjusting the prediction horizon based on individual session durations. The MDP-based scheduling problem within PATCH is solved using a robust-bonded dynamic programming algorithm, ensuring resilience against various uncertainties while optimizing time costs. Simulations based on real-world EV charging data demonstrate that, under the premise of maintaining a similar computing speed with traditional methods, underscoring its potential to enhance EV charging management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"19 5","pages":"Pages 446-461"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144124475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
