معرفی
Eva Barrena Algara is a Professor at the Department of Economics, Quantitative Methods, and Economic History at the University Pablo de Olavide. Her work bridges operations research, transportation planning, and mathematical optimization, with a focus on urban rail systems and network design.
Her research interests include:
- Railway timetabling and scheduling under dynamic passenger demand
- Mixed-integer programming for transportation network optimization
- Multiplex network analysis in collective transportation systems
- Heuristic and metaheuristic algorithms for coordinated vehicle routing
- Waste logistics and humanitarian relief routing applications
Her publications since 2013 demonstrate expertise in train unit scheduling, demand-adapted timetables, and network transferability analysis, often using Gröbner bases and adaptive algorithms. She collaborates with researchers like Gilbert Laporte and David Canca, with papers appearing in journals such as Computers & Operations Research and European Journal of Operational Research. Key application areas include metro systems, disaster response logistics, and waste collection optimization.
She serves on the editorial board or as reviewer for transportation and operations research journals, and her work has been cited over 45 times. Her methodological contributions span exact formulations, biased-randomized heuristics, and stochastic modeling for time-dependent problems.
