Analysis of Malfunctions in Selected Parking Systems in the Czech Republic

Abstract

The underlying cause of the problem with parking is the imbalance between demand and supply in key areas where demand for parking is high, but parking is limited due to excessive land prices. Newly-developed automated multi-storey parking facilities are able to automatically pick up and place cars on different storeys, with minimal requirements on space. In the paper we concentrate on Automated Parking Systems and their malfunction rate. Specifically, we analyzed two automated systems located in the Czech Republic, in the towns of Brno and Slaný. We employed time series and various testing hypotheses to compare the malfunction rate of the systems, and used information from practice. We conclude with an evaluation and a brief description of the optimization of systems and the use of innovative tools.

Performance Evaluation of Different Dispatching Rules and Heuristics in a Fully Automated Parking System

“…Notably, the primary contribution lies in approaching these issues from a customer-centric perspective. To the best of our knowledge, the only study addressing the demand-supply imbalance in FAPSs is conducted by Kuda et al (2022). Chen and Sun (2017), Serpen and Dou (2015) FAPS design efficiency Different designs (circular vs. rectangular) impact space efficiency and operations.…”

“…Wu et al (2019) Allocation of cars Employed a genetic algorithm to minimize parking and pickup times for rotary systems. Kuda et al (2022) Demand-supply imbalance Investigated the imbalance between FAPS demand and supply. The present study…”

A Method for the Determination of Balance Coefficient and Elevator Braking Torque in a Tower Parking Car System

“…In [6], the dynamics of the freight elevators were analyzed to find the acceleration of the movement and propose recommendations to increase efficiency. In [7] a similar problem was investigated, which is the dynamic analysis of vertical transport machines in mining.…”
