Factors influencing bike share membership: An analysis of Melbourne and Brisbane

The number of bike share programs has increased rapidly in recent years and there are currently over 700 programs in operation globally. Australia’s two bike share programs have been in operation since 2010 and have significantly lower usage rates compared to Europe, North America and China. This study sets out to understand and quantify the factors influencing bike share membership in Australia’s two bike share programs located in Melbourne and Brisbane. An online survey was administered to members of both programs as well as a group with no known association with bike share. A logistic regression model revealed several significant predictors of membership including reactions to mandatory helmet legislation, riding activity over the previous month, and the degree to which convenience motivated private bike riding. In addition, respondents aged 18–34 and having docking station within 250 m of their workplace were found to be statistically significant predictors of bike share membership. Finally, those with relatively high incomes increased the odds of membership. These results provide insight as to the relative influence of various factors impacting on bike share membership in Australia. The findings may assist bike share operators to maximize membership potential and help achieve the primary goal of bike share – to increase the sustainability of the transport system.     

铁路通道内客流分担率及客运组织策略研究

针对高速铁路与既有线并行的铁路通道内客流的分担率问题,分析旅客选择乘坐铁路通道内高速铁路和既有线的主要影响因素,在考虑经济性、快速性、便捷性和舒适性4个影响因素的基础上,采用加法原理建立可变权重的广义费用函数,并用广义费用函数取代一般Logit分担率模型中的效用函数,从而导出可变权重的Logit客流分担率模型。运用指出的模型计算武广铁路运输通道内高速铁路的客流分担率,计算结果与客流统计数据的对比分析表明,给出的客流分担率模型具有较高的准确率。通过对影响武广铁路运输通道客运组织关键因素的分析,提出了武广高速铁路按培育期、增长期和成熟期3个阶段开展客运组织的策略。

铁路客运站自动售票机终端配置微观仿真分析

分析旅客购票过程中的行为特性,基于排队论建立带有止步和中途退出的铁路客运站售票厅排队系统微观仿真模型,以旅客平均排队等待时间最小等为目标函数,就自动售票机的售票分担率和终端配置数量对排队系统的影响进行灵敏度仿真分析.研究结果表明:在自动售票机售票分担率一定时,自动售票机终端的配置数量存在1个阀值,当终端数量超过该阀值时,旅客的平均排队等待时间没有显著减少,在自动售票机终端数量一定时,自动售票机的售票分担率也存在1个阀值,当超过该阀值时会增加旅客平均排队等待时间,使服务水平下降.
