Modeling Diesel Bus Fuel Consumption and Dynamically Optimizing Bus Scheduling Efficiency

There are currently very few models that estimate diesel and hybrid bus fuel consumption levels. Those that are available either require significant dynamometer data gathering to calibrate the model parameters and also produce a bang-bang control system (optimum control entails maximum throttle and...
