Modeling capacity flexibility of transportation networks

Flexibility of the transportation system is one of the important performance measures needed to deal with demand changes. In this paper, we provide a quantitative assessment of capacity flexibility for the passenger transportation network using bi-level network capacity models. Two approaches for assessing the value of capacity flexibility are proposed. One approach is based on the concept of reserve capacity, which reflects the flexibility with respect to changes in terms of demand volume only. The second approach allows for variations in the demand pattern in addition to changes in demand volume in order to more fully capture demand changes. Two models are developed in the second approach to consider two types of capacity flexibility. The total capacity flexibility allows all users to have both route choice and destination choice when estimating capacity flexibility. The limited capacity flexibility estimates how much more demand volume could be added to a fixed demand pattern by allowing the additional demand to deviate from the fixed demand pattern. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the different concepts of capacity flexibility for a passenger transportation system under demand changes.

5-Aza-CdR对人食管癌细胞株生物学行为及TFPI-2 mRNA表达的影响

目的探讨5-氮杂-2-脱氧胞苷(5-Aza-2-deoxycytidine,5-Aza-CdR)干预对食管鳞癌细胞株Eca9706生长增殖及其组织因子途径抑制物2(tissue factor pathway inhibitor-2,TFPI-2)基因表达的影响。方法选取食管鳞癌细胞株Eca9706,并用不同浓度的5-Aza-CdR处理该细胞株。MTT法检测干预前后细胞增长率的变化,FCM法检测干预前后细胞凋亡率的变化,RT-PCR技术检测干预前后Eca9706细胞TFPI-2基因mRNA的表达,免疫组化检测干预前后Eca9706细胞TFPI-2蛋白的表达。结果食管鳞癌细胞株Eca9706存在TFPI-2基因超甲基化状态,经5-Aza-CdR处理后,超甲基化状态解除,细胞增殖受到抑制,细胞凋亡率明显提高(P<0.05);细胞中TFPI-2蛋白表达明显增强,同时mRNA的表达水平也较处理前明显提高(P<0.05)。结论食管癌细胞系TFPI-2基因超甲基化可抑制其mR-NA表达,当其超甲基化解除后,细胞增殖受到抑制,同时细胞凋亡率相应提高。

Airline delays,congestion internalization and non-price spillover effects of low cost carrier entry

This paper develops an econometric model of flight delays to investigate the influence of competition and dominance on the incentives of carriers to maintain on-time performance. We consider both the route and the airport levels to inspect the local and global effects of competition, with a unifying framework to test the hypotheses of 1. airport congestion internalization and 2. the market competition-quality relationship in a single econometric model. In particular, we examine the impacts of the entry of low cost carriers (LCC) on the flight delays of incumbent full service carriers in the Brazilian airline industry. The main results indicate a highly significant effect of airport congestion self-internalization in parallel with route-level quality competition. Additionally, the potential competition caused by LCC presence provokes a global effect that suggests the existence of non-price spillovers of the LCC entry to non-entered routes.
