The understanding and prediction of transport due to plasma microturbulence is a key open problem in modern plasma physics, and a grand challenge for fusion energy research. Ab initio simulations of such small-scale, low-frequency turbulence are to be base ...
Recently major transport operators such as Transport for London or RATP in Paris developed an interest for walking issues, and seek to promote walking as an integrated part of their transport offer. This paper draws from two case studies being carried out ...
In recent years, issues of social inequality and social exclusion in mobility and transport have gained increasing attention, both in empirical research and in policymaking and transport development. While some European countries (such as Great Britain, th ...
In Switzerland there are single bodies for both trade union organisations (SEV, VHTL, SSP, USS) and professional organisations (Economie Suisse being the peak association combining all the employer organisations: the Public Transport Union, CFF, BLS, Sped ...
Apart from the best-practice cases where public administration has been able to manage the transit service network and implement a strong regulation system, in the majority of Latin American cities public urban transport is supplied by a great number of qu ...
What are the impacts of a re-designed public transportation system in a city where social differences are heavily manifested in spatial separation, i.e. where exist certain inequalities concerning the access to daily activities and participation in urban l ...
This paper analyzes urban multimodal transportation systems in an aggregated way. To describe the aggregate behavior of traffic in cities, use is made of an idea that is now receiving some attention: the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD). We demonstrat ...
Diamagnetic levitation is the only passive levitation at room temperature. It is interesting to use this principle for a contactless conveyor in applications where friction and wear-particle contamination should be avoided such as in a microfactory. Using ...
A study of daily time allocation to travel and out-of-home activity is conducted across eight European cities over three countries: France (Lyon, Grenoble, Strasbourg and Rennes), Switzerland (Geneva, Bern and Zurich) and Belgium (Brussels), based on indiv ...
