Making land use Transport models operational tools for planning: From a top-down to an end-user approach

Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent

Land Use and Transport Integrated models (LUTIs) are promising approaches for urban planning. There is large literature describing their technical architectures or using them in various scientific contexts. Yet little attention has been paid to expectation ...

Concevoir à grande échelle

Mathieu Louis Pierre Mercuriali

Large-scale design - Mobility interface models and urban transformation strategies This research project is based on the hypothesis that the urban transformations generated by mobility interfaces constitute a key component of successful sustainable urban ...

Urbanity and Construction of the City

Alessandro Porotto

Urbanity is a real quality of an urban place. This concept means that the urbanity is inextricably related to the architecture of a place, the architecture of the city. The presence of the built environment is the first essential condition for the developm ...

The Role of Ocean Space in Contemporary Urbanization

Nancy Raewyn Couling

Although the ocean is investigated by many scientific fields, research about ocean space is scarce. But energy production, extraction of resources, infrastructural and logistical development is increasing incrementally, resulting in a quantum shift in scal ...

Transport mode choice in alpine resorts in Switzerland

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

Mountain regions are under-represented in transport research, which tends to concentrate on urban areas. This study investigates transport mode choice in 22 locations in the Alps, using data from the 2010 Swiss transport micro-survey (hereafter: MRMT2010) ...

To make LUTI models operational tools for planning

Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent

Land Use and Transport Integrated models (LUTIs) are promising tools for urban planning. Although a large literature is dedicated to these models, little attention has been paid to them as operational tool for planners and few efforts have been made by aca ...

Multiplex networks in metropolitan areas: generic features and local effects

Emanuele Strano, Marc Barthélemy

Most large cities are spanned by more than one transportation system. These different modes of transport have usually been studied separately: it is however important to understand the impact on urban systems of coupling different modes and we report in th ...

The activity path approach to activity pattern modeling

Michel Bierlaire, Antonin Danalet

In this presentation, we propose a model for the simultaneous choice of activity types, order, start times and durations of activity episodes in a sequence. In particular, we develop a framework for choice set generation based on path choice to deal with t ...

The effect of magnetic islands on ITG turbulence driven transport

In this work, we address the question of the influence of magnetic islands on the perpendicular transport due to steady-state ITG turbulence on the energy transport time scale. We demonstrate that turbulence can cross the separatrix and enhance the perpend ...

Probabilistic multimodal map-matching with rich smartphone data

Michel Bierlaire, Jingmin Chen

This article proposes a probabilistic method that infers the transport modes and the physical paths of trips from smartphone data that were recorded during travels. This method synthesizes multiple kinds of data from smartphone sensors, which provide relev ...
