Multistage Network Design for Sustainable Transportation System Planning

项目名称：	Multistage Network Design for Sustainable Transportation System Planning
摘要：	This project proposes to develop methods for sequentially building infrastructure systems, with an objective of achieving system efficiency, security, and sustainability. A mathematical model that integrates multistage optimization techniques and various risk measures will be developed to identify the optimal sequence of expanding or repairing a given network. Various sustainability measures will be considered including economic cost effectiveness, system security and robustness, and environmental and resource impact. The incorporation of system uncertainties and risks into the network design model via stochastic modeling techniques provides improves the reliability and safety of the system, which is an important sustainability measure. The multistage framework allows optimal usage of resources and provides more flexibility for adjusting future planning activities based on acquired information through information technologies. Case studies of transportation network expansion and repairing using San Francisco Bay Area data will be carried out for numerical testing, sensitivity analysis of model parameters, and policy implications.
