The aim of this research is to study the optimal deployment of wireless charging stations (WCS) in urban transportation networks. It is widely acknowledged that the relatively short driving range of EV and the long battery charging times collectively lead to a phenomenon known as "range anxiety" of EV drivers. This phenomenon remains to be the major factor that hampers EV adoption. Thus, in this dissertation, we study a cost-effective deployment plan of WCSs that facilitates EV adoption by alleviating the two major causes of the “range anxiety” phenomenon.
In the first part of this dissertation, we propose a deployment …

As evolving threats across the globe keep pace with increasing budget constraints, the US Army’s major subordinate commands and their sub-organizations are constantly challenged to do more with less. Resources such as human capital, information technology, facilities, and budgeted funding are stretched as thin as ever, while requirements to serve the Warfighter remain paramount. Each dollar of financial benefit gained through cost reduction efforts at the US Army can affect the Warfighter directly. Budgeted money saved or avoided is reprogrammed both locally and atop the hierarchy at the Department of Treasury to serve the Warfighter better.
