| Popis: | As an emerging travel mode, the modular vehicle system (MVS) is receiving increasing attention. In particular, the operators could connect multiple modular vehicles as an assembled bus in response to the temporary demand varies. Therefore, in this study, the MVS is adopted in the context of customized bus design to satisfy passengers reserved travel demand. In addition, to increase the potential of the customized modular bus system, the transfer among buses can be considered to group the passengers with the same or close destinations. However, the passengers will not actively transfer as it is viewed as a disutility. Thus, the appropriate incentivization should be provided. To this end, we jointly optimize the passenger-route assignment and the transfer incentivization scheme, in which the transfer demand is considered elastically under different incentivization. Then, the linearization approaches are adopted to transform the original nonlinear model into a mixed integer linear programming model, which can be solved by state-of-the-art solvers. The experiment on the small network reveals that the performance of the bus system with an incentivization scheme is better than that without an incentivization scheme, and the extent of such superiority depends on the total demand level in the system.
