Abstract Carsharing, as an alternative to private vehicle ownership, has spread worldwide in recent years due to its potential of reducing congestion, improving auto utilisation rates and limiting the environmental impact of emissions releases. Along with its growth, the flexibility of carsharing systems also brings complex problems to the operators. One dominant challenge in carsharing systems is to ensure the supply of vehicles can meet the demand of users in a cost-effective manner. This requires accurately predicting users' demand and optimally relocating vehicles in response to demand variations. The two principal areas of this thesis are methods to estimate demand and optimally relocate fleet. From the demand side, this study models users’ vehicle selection and utilisation patterns. Focusing on vehicle selection behaviour, a spatial hazard-based model (SHBM) is proposed to investigate the impacts of users’ socio-demographic attributes and fleet characteristics on their choice set formation behaviour in selecting vehicles. The modelling is achieved by regarding “distance to carsharing vehicle” as a random variable analogous to the duration in conventional hazard-based models. Data collected from the Australian carsharing company GoGet are utilised to calibrate the models. The accelerated failure time model with a log-logistic distribution is found to provide the best fit. Upon making a vehicle selection, users then decide the amount of consumption to allocate to each selected vehicle type. This process involves making multiple discrete choices of continuous amounts and is modelled by the multiple discrete-continuous extreme value (MDCEV) modelling framework. Three MDCEV models considering travel time, mileage, and monetary expenditure as the continuous i consumption constraints are developed to estimate the impacts of a set of socio- demographic attributes on user’s vehicle choice and capture the satiation effect with increasing the consumption for each vehicle type. An efficient simulation procedure is applied to evaluate the performance of the three MDCEV models. The results indicate travel time, mileage and expenditure affect users’ vehicle usage pattern in the same way. The findings from these two demand models can be referred to by the operators when determining the most efficient allocation of resources within carsharing systems. From the operation side, the research develops and solves novel models for the vehicle stock imbalance problem in one-way carsharing systems. Previous studies have proposed relocation methods to handle it, but the interdependence between demand and supply has never been considered. The thesis proposes two relocation models to link demand and supply. Both incorporate a discrete choice model (DCM) in an integer linear programming (ILP) model to account for the interaction. The difference between them lies in the DCMs. In the first model, the DCM does not assume users’ demand to be elastic to vehicle availability. The ILP model solves optimal relocation decisions and updates vehicle availability for each station; the DCM then coupled with the updated vehicle availability changes users’ trip demand reciprocally. Built on the first model, the second model extends the DCM by including vehicle availability as a parameter directly affecting demand. In this new framework, demand and supply are linked by vehicle availability: it is the output of the ILP model and at the same time the input of the DCM. The nonlinearity of the DCM is further linearised through a linearisation approach. Both models are tested in the GoGet network. The results reveal if there is a strong interdependence between demand and supply, the supply has a critical impact on system profit. ii The core contribution of this thesis is to take the first attempt to understand and optimise carsharing systems considering the interdependency of demand and supply comprehensively. iii Acknowledgements I will never forget the lucky Skype call I received four years ago when I was studying at Singapore.

  • Evolution of E-Mobility in Carsharing Business Models
    Evolution of E-Mobility in Carsharing Business Models Susan A. Shaheen1 and Nelson D. Chan2 Transportation Sustainability Research Center, University of California, Berkeley, [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Carsharing continues to grow worldwide as a powerful strategy to provide an alternative to solo driving. The viability of electric vehicles, or EVs, has been examined in various carsharing business models. Moreover, new technologies have given rise to electromobility, or e-mobility, systems. This paper discusses the evolution of e-mobility in carsharing business models and the challenges and opportunities that EVs present to carsharing operators around the world. Operators are now anticipating increased EV proliferation into vehicle fleets over the next 5- 10 years as technology, infrastructure, and public policy shift toward support of e- mobility systems. Thus, research is still needed to quantify impacts of EVs in changing travel behavior toward more sustainable transport. 1 Introduction Carsharing enables a group of members to share a vehicle fleet that is maintained, managed, and insured by a third-party organization. Primarily used for short-term trips, carsharing can provide affordable, self-service vehicle access 24-h per day for those who do not have a car, want to reduce the number of vehicles in their household, or do not use their vehicle during the day for long periods of time. Rates include fuel, insurance, and maintenance. Ideally, carsharing works best in a neighborhood, business, or campus setting where users could walk, bike, share rides, or take public transit to access the shared-use vehicles. Carsharing has evolved through several phases since the first carsharing system began in Europe in 1948.

    10 September 2009 VE and WM SERIES II PRODUCT INFORMATION Overview VE and WM Series II marks the latest versions of Australia’s most popular sedans, wagons, utilities and luxury long-wheelbase vehicles. The new range has seen Holden finesse the formula that has made Commodore the nation’s top selling car for 14 years straight by introducing smart multimedia technology, improved fuel economy, and the capacity to run on environmentally friendly bio-ethanol. VE Series II brings more multimedia features to Commodore than ever before through an all- new infotainment system that delivers full Bluetooth®, USB and iPod integration across the range. Known as Holden-iQ, the system is controlled through a clever, user-friendly touch screen mounted in the centre stack - the cornerstone of a refreshed interior design across all models. Introducing increased plug-and-play music functions and the capacity to rip and store up to 15 CDs on an internal flash drive*, the system also delivers advanced satellite navigation features on selected models including live traffic condition alerts to help drivers avoid congestion delays. Commodore’s smart technology extends to the Series II powertrain line-up which delivers further fuel economy improvements on all models. Holden’s frugal 3.0 litre SIDI V6 now achieves economy of 9.1 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres in the official ADR81/02 test. The two per cent improvement adds to the 13 per cent fuel economy gain made in September last year when Spark Ignition Direct Injection engine technology was introduced to the Commodore range. The 3.6 litre SIDI V6 used to power premium Commodore models makes average fuel economy gains of more than three per cent by while all luxury and performance models powered by Holden’s Gen IV V8 improve on average by more than six per cent.

(B) a revised car sharing permit fee be publicly advertised in accordance with the requirements of the Local Government Act 1993. Background At the meeting of the Planning and Development Committee (Transport, Heritage and Planning Sub-Committee) on 14 November 2016, further information was sought. 1. Preferential allocation of on-street spaces The draft Policy 2016 proposes that, in precincts where more than 75% of the total potential on-street car share spaces are held by a single operator, the City may choose to issue remaining spaces preferentially to another eligible operator in order to facilitate competition and user choice within precincts. After discussion in Committee, further examination of potential mechanisms to operationalise this has identified some potential implementation and probity issues.
