On-demand Mobility
Lead: Florian Dandl, Roman Engelhardt
This research group focuses on on-demand mobility services as well as regulatory measures to control transportation systems. Operational and strategical decisions are of particular interest for studying on-demand mobility services, which are often evaluated through agent-based simulations. Within the realm of regulatory measures, a noteworthy concept being explored is the introduction of "Mobility Coins”, which represent a tradable credit system designed to shift the burden of societal and environmental costs associated with mobility onto the end-users.
Research Topics:

- Assignment and routing algorithms
- Vehicle repositioning and charging
- Stop management
- Intermodality
Mobility Coins:
- System design and modeling
