Single occupancy vehicle (SOV) transportation is a key contributor to climate change and air pollution. Sustainable transportation (ST), commuting by any means other than SOV, could both slow climate change and enhance public health. The transtheoretical model (TTM) provides a useful framework for examining how people progress towards adopting ST. Short valid and reliable measures for ST decisi...

With the passage of time, the development of communication technology and transportation broke the isolation among people. Relationship tends to be complicated, pluralism, dynamism. In the network where interpersonal relationship and evolved complex net based on game theory work serve respectively as foundation architecture and theoretical model, with the combination of game theory and regard p...

This paper starts out from the observation that the export shares of firms (export to sales ratio) vary greatly among firms, and tend to be systematically related to the firms' capital labour ratios. This observation cannot be explained by e.g. the standard Melitz model, since it predicts that all exporting firms have identical export shares. In our model, we relate the difference in export sha...

The focus of this chapter is an examination of the relationship between cognitive maps and travel behavior in urban environments. We do this examination incrementally, beginning with clarifications of terms relating to cognitive maps, cognitive mapping and wayfinding. We then emphasize transportation-related issues such as cognizing of transportation networks, path selection, wayfinding and nav...

IFN-a: interferon alfa LTT: lymphocyte transportation test TNF-a: tumor necrosis factorealfa T umor necrosis factor alfa (TNF-a) antagonists are commonly used to treat inflammatory disorders and are considered particularly effective in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis. Paradoxically, however, new-onset occurrence orworsening of psoriasis has been increasingly recognized among patie...

In this paper a method to create GIS-based accessibility indicators is presented. The method allows to create person-by-person and store-by-store (disaggregate) accessibility indicators but also to derive zonal summary (aggregate) indicators that can be used in more traditional transportation planning applications. These indicators have also been used as explanatory variables in person-based tr...
