Local bus network is the most popular transit mode and the only available transit mode in the majority of cities of the world. Increasing the utility of this mode which increases its share from urban trips is an important goal for city planners. Timetable setting as the second component of bus network design problem (network route design timetable setting vehicle assignment crew assignment) hav...

In this paper the factors having influence on travel demand to Iran are paper explored. The hypothesis of the research specifies the variable of “domestic upheavals and insecurity” as the most significant obstacle to expansion of the demand for travel to Iran. To test the above hypothesis, first several demand models that have been proposed to study demand for tourism in different countries, ar...

Understanding the value of travel time for mobility concepts based on self-driving vehicles is crucial to accurately transport investments and predict future patterns. In this paper, we carry out a morphological analysis illustrate diversity complexity determining such concepts. We consider four categories parameters that directly or indirectly impact time: (i) vehicle characteristics, (ii) ope...

shear-wave velocity ( ) is an important parameter used for site characterization in geotechnical engineering. however, dispersion curve inversion is challenging for most inversion methods due to its high non-linearity and mix-determined trait. in order to overcome these problems, in this study, a joint inversion strategy is proposed based on the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm. the ...
