Pedestrian Crossings as a Means of Reducing Conflicts between Cyclists and Pedestrians in Shared Spaces

One significant and simultaneously interesting problem in urban mobility has to do with the study of shared spaces where various categories of users coexist and act together. This paper aims to examine the behavior and preferences of pedestrians and cyclis ...

Conceptualizing Passage-Paysage

Dieter Dietz, Lucia-Nieves Garcia de Jalon Oyarzun, Ruben Alberto Valdez Juarez, Aurèle Pulfer

In this article, we consider the role of landscape as support for an alternative urban mobility scheme and how architecture can help foster a transition towards a low-carbon system. From that point of departure, we trace the genealogical origins of the ter ...

Activity-based modeling and simulation of epidemics

Michel Bierlaire, Cloe Cortes Balcells, Rico Krüger

The SARS-CoV-2 outburst in March 2020 has led to the lockdown of several countries across the world. Mobility restrictions have been constantly put into action and reversed to find the trade-off between minimizing the number of infections and death and mit ...

Reducing personal air-travel: Restrictions, options and the role of justifications

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ralph Hansmann

An integrative environmental behavior model was applied in an online survey to investigate the determinants of intentions to reduce personal air travel and corresponding perceived restrictions and options among participants in Switzerland (N = 1206). Flyin ...

Optimizing the operating profit of young highways using updated bridge structural capacity

Ian Smith

As more private firms participate in public projects aiming to increase their profits by adjusting operational strategies, there has been an increasing demand for structural identification in the operational phase. In this paper, we propose a framework for ...

On the inefficiency of ride-sourcing services towards urban congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Caio Vitor Beojone

The advent of shared-economy and smartphones made on-demand transportation services possible, which created additional opportunities, but also more complexity to urban mobility. Companies that offer these services are called Transportation Network Companie ...

Qualité de desserte et patterns spatio-temporels : accompagner le renouvellement des politiques publiques de déplacement par une adaptation plus fine de l’offre à la demande

Alexis Gumy, Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

In a society where car use is still predominant, resistance to modal shift questions traditional planning approaches. While lifestyles are diversifying, public transit timetables are still mainly based on commuting. This paper proposes a new, interdiscipli ...

Design and analysis of control strategies for pedestrian flows

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Exploiting the full potential of pedestrian infrastructure is becoming critical in many environments which cannot be easily expanded to cope with the increasing pedestrian demand. This is particularly true for train stations as in many dense cities space i ...

A GIS based approach for analysing geological and operation conditions influence on road tunnels degradation

Federica Sandrone, Vincent Labiouse

Adopting effective maintenance strategies for transportation infrastructures requires good prediction of their long-term behaviour. For planning interventions without affecting the entire network’s capacity, tunnels in particular require a good overview of ...
