We study airport competition when vertically differentiated products may be strategically offered at the time of ticket purchase through the Internet: a base product Ð the flight Ð and a composite one Ð the flight plus some premium commercials (PCs), as car parking, car rental or hotel...

In this paper, we analytically study the performance of two topologies of high-speed rail (HSR) networks: isolated-corridors and grid networks. We evaluate how HSR configuration affects capacity of newly developed infrastructure, profits and social welfare by considering a number of factors,...

While the existing literature has focused on the short-term impacts, this paper investigates the long-term impacts of high-speed rail (HSR) competition on airlines. An analytical model is developed to study how an airline may change its network and market coverage when facing HSR competition on...

This paper investigates cooperation between air transport and high-speed rail (HSR), with the air sector reimbursing air-HSR transfer passengers for their HSR tickets while the rail sector sharing revenue with the air sector to compensate for the reimbursement. The air-HSR cooperation...

This paper develops a theoretical model to analyze the congestion internalization of the shipping lines, taking into account the “knock on” effect (i.e. the congestion delay passed on from one port-of-call to the next port-of-call). We find that with the presence of the knock-on effect,...

In this paper, we build a theoretical model to study the underlying factors behind the various partnership levels in different cooperation schemes between airline and high-speed rail (HSR). We study two different intermodal relationships: a parallel one where the networks of the airline and the...

We develop a game-theoretic model to compare two electric vehicle (EV) policies, i.e., an electric vehicle subsidy (EVS) and a charging infrastructure subsidy (CIS), under different market structures. We find that when a monopoly EV manufacturer also builds and operates charging stations, EVS...
