| Summary of Lecture: | THIS COURSE WILL TAKE PLACE AT THE PLANNED TIME AS AN ONLINE COURSE! Further information on Friday, 20.03.2020. Mobility plays a major role for social and economic activity. Understanding the dynamics of human mobility is essential to understand the effects of new modes of transport, such as car-sharing and ride-hailing, as well as processes that are driven by human travel, such as disease spreading. Approaches from statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics help to reveal and quantify these dynamics and the interactions between the individual travelers to make mobility more ecologically, economically and socially sustainable. In part one of this course, we will discuss fundamental concepts of network theory, nonlinear dynamics and game theory. Based on these aspects, we will introduce and discuss seminal results on the dynamics of human mobility, such as the emergence of congestion in road and pedestrian dynamics. We will relate these results to current research directions and discuss their implication in a broader context. In part two we will work on implementation of the problems and algorithms and their analysis with the methods we have learned in the first part. This includes a reproduction of the seminal results as well as a presentation of current research directions. Finally, we will work on small research projects that build on these results and methods, for example the incentive structure behind ride-sharing, the optimal layout of bike path networks or the dynamics of congestion at charging stations for electric vehicles. |
