Mobility infrastructure with transportation services is the backbone in livable cities, remote and rural areas. Emerging mobility infrastructure is growing rapidly with services such as autonomous vehicles, electrical buses, on-demand ride-hailing and vehicle sharing, to form integrated mobility systems. Such integration revolutionizes conventional mobility, reshapes travel behaviors, and transforms inflexible options into more dynamic and multimodal services for travelers, especially for remote communities and underrepresented groups who are more constrained by specific traditional mobility service (e.g., transit or private car). However, it is unclear what types and values of benefits and how those benefits can be materialized from the emerging mobility infrastructure in a cost-efficient way for both urban and rural areas. Autonomous vehicles, shared mobility and connectivity are upon us, but the approaches to date do not yet have sufficient theory, tractable models and long-term guidance to satisfy inclusive public goals. The research program will pioneer and develop the theories and models, and examine them to explain the multimodal interactions, predict travel behavior and ridership, and quantify the costs and benefits for integrating emerging mobility infrastructure at strategic, systematic, and tactical levels. Paradigms and applications are developed considering behavioral dynamics, endogenous interrelationships of mobility services, urban-rural characteristics and demand-supply interactions with a focus on connectivity, equitability and sustainability of communities. The program consists of three thematic research: (1) Behavior and Demand. Travel behaviors, individual preferences and mobility characteristics in the interrelated mobility infrastructure. (2) Supply and Networks. A scalable framework of network-wide supply optimizations considering interactions and multiple objectives. (3) Incentivization and Resilience. Designs of dynamic incentives responding to real-time traffic conditions. Interdisciplinary approaches will include discrete choice models, user equilibrium, mixed-integer nonlinear optimizations, and Pareto improvements. The concepts, methodology and interpretations to be developed and tested will foster the integration of emerging mobility infrastructure to provide affordable travels for individuals, create seamless network connectivity for communities and empower decision making process, which will benefit travelers, sectors and society as a whole. The program will yield theoretical models, methodological insights and applications in the transportation field to provide an informative and in-depth point of reference for researchers and stakeholders in transportation analysis and modeling. The interdisciplinary research will advance the state-of-the-art and also contribute on the theories and empirical studies to the field of behaviors, operation research, economics and management science.

具备交通服务的移动基础设施是宜居城市、偏远和农村地区的支柱。新兴的移动基础设施正在迅速发展，自动驾驶汽车、电动巴士、按需叫车和车辆共享等服务正在形成集成的移动系统。这种整合彻底改变了传统的移动性，重塑了旅行行为，并将不灵活的选择转变为旅行者的更动态和多模式的服务，特别是对于偏远社区和受特定传统移动服务（例如，公交车或私家车）。然而，尚不清楚哪些类型和价值的好处，以及如何以成本效益高的方式从城市和农村地区新兴的流动基础设施中实现这些好处。自动驾驶汽车、共享移动性和连通性已经摆在我们面前，但迄今为止的方法还没有足够的理论、易于处理的模型和长期指导来满足包容性的公共目标。该研究计划将开拓和发展理论和模型，并对其进行研究，以解释多模式交互，预测出行行为和乘客量，并量化在战略，系统和战术层面整合新兴移动基础设施的成本和效益。开发的范例和应用考虑到行为动态，流动服务的内在相互关系，城乡特点和需求-供应的相互作用，重点是社区的连通性，公平性和可持续性。 该计划包括三个专题研究：（1）行为和需求。相关移动基础设施中的出行行为、个人偏好和移动特性。(2)供应和网络。考虑交互和多目标的网络范围供应优化的可扩展框架。(3)激励和恢复力。因应即时交通状况之动态诱因设计。跨学科的方法将包括离散选择模型，用户平衡，混合整数非线性优化，帕累托改进。 开发和测试的概念，方法和解释将促进新兴移动基础设施的整合，为个人提供负担得起的旅行，为社区创建无缝网络连接，并授权决策过程，这将使旅行者，行业和整个社会受益。该计划将产生理论模型，方法论的见解和应用在交通领域，为研究人员和利益相关者在交通分析和建模提供一个信息和深入的参考点。跨学科的研究将促进最先进的，也有助于在理论和实证研究领域的行为，运筹学，经济学和管理科学。
