Online supplement for US-75 Corridor in Dallas TX.

Discussed in Paper Title: Strategic Network Design and Analysis for In-Motion Wireless Charging of Electric Vehicles

Mamdouh Mubarak, Halit Uster, Khaled Abdelghany and Mohammad Khodayar

 

In this supplement we provide another real-world example to illustrate the applicability of our model and solution algorithm. The study area for this example is the US-75 corridor in Dallas, TX. The network data are provided here.  The network consist of 1380 nodes. 3149 link, and 98 zone. Each zone represents an origin and/or a destination.
