Zhang Yuli publishes latest research results in Management Science

Recently, "Scaling Up Electric-Vehicle Battery Swapping Services in Cities: A Joint Location and Repairable-Inventory Model" by Zhang Yuli of Beijing Institute of Technology and Associate Professor Qi Wei of Tsinghua University, was published online in Management Science, a top management journal. Special Researcher Zhang Yuli is the corresponding author, and Qi Wei and Zhang Yuli are the co-first authors of the paper.

The development of new energy vehicles is the only way for China to move to an automobile power country. It is a strategic measure to deal with climate change and promote green development. Zhang Yuli and collaborators have carried out a series of innovative work in operation mode, model method and algorithm design in view of the bottleneck problems restricting the development of Electric-Vehicle Battery Swapping Services. The results promote the development of the analysis theory of random queuing system and provide new decision tools for site selection and inventory management. The platform of the National Monitoring and Management Center of New energy Vehicles and the taxi operation data computing results show that with the gradual promotion of electric taxi, the mode of "centralized charging and decentralized power changing" can reduce the daily operation cost and the number of batteries by more than 30%, which has a good application prospect. The research is funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (71871023,72271029,72061127001).


Management Science is one of the 24 top academic journals (UTD 24) selected by the University of Texas at Dallas, and it is also one of the 50 top academic journals (FT50) rated by the Financial Times.
