摘要:The cruising taxi industry has been greatly impacted by the development of the ride-hailing taxi services like the Didi and Uber. The service orders of cruising taxis fell 35% or more. To intervene the conflicts between the cruising and ride-hailing taxis, system dynamics model of cruising taxicab price was proposed by considering the competitive relationships between online ride-hailing and cruising taxis. The proposed model was calibrated and validated by the taxi operational data in Ningbo. Simulation experiments were designed to explore the impact of the cruising taxi price changes on the balance of market supply and demand. Simulations were divided into two scenarios: one was under the different levels of supply and demand at peak and low peak; the other was under the different proportions of ride-hailing taxi. The results indicate that (1) the market supply and demand are close to equilibrium during peak hours when the price increases by ¥0.6 per kilometer. The increased price can reduce the peak de...
