For a sustainable people and goods mobility, CISIT (The International Campus on Safety and Intermodality in Transportation) has the objective to realize an optimal management of multimodal chains. In this context, this paper discusses the real-time regulation of traffic in a transportation system disruption.. In fact, the increase in the network size and the presence of multiple transportation ...

From the point of view of the feasibility of providing growth in road capacity parallel to the predicted growth in traffic as well in terms of impact on the environment and health, current trends in transportation are unsustainable. Transport problems are expected to worsen due to the fact that worldwide automobile ownership tripled between 1970 and 2000, and the movement of goods is projected ...

walking being the oldest form of urban transport, and until the advent of major transformationsin transport technology in the nineteenth century, most cities were structured in ways that supported walkability.today, there is a change in transportation which emphasizes, the traditional pedestrian paths which are increasinglybecoming non-regulated spaces when compared to the urban spaces for auto...

Transportation networks have been developed during the recent decades with the rapid growth of economy. At the same time, the conflicts between different transportation modes were getting more and more intense. To describe the competition relationship in integrated transportation system, a multi-agent competition model was presented. It is important to provide decision support for regulators to...

This paper proposed an algorithm to decrease the discrepancies between imputation and real GPS data. Based on the activity-travel pattern obtained using a Bayesian Belief Network model, the algorithm takes into account the consistency of the full activitytravel pattern within a day in the sense that the activity-travel sequence is represented in terms of a hierarchical set of tours, and the tra...

We consider shortest paths on a multi-modal transportation network where restrictions or preferences on the use of certain modes of transportation may arise. The regular language constraint shortest path problem deals with this kind of problem. It models constraints by using regular languages. The problem can be solved efficiently by using a generalization of Dijkstra’s algorithm (DRegLC). Rece...

The main aim of the present study was to compare risk perception among Norwegians (n=512) living in the region of Oslo. This study was part of an ERANET 13 project entitled PETRIS, Perception of transport risk in France and Norway. The data collection was carried out in January 2011. The response rate was 51 percent. The results showed that respondents, divided in two groups according to their ...

BACKGROUND Good coronary care begins from the patient's home, including early transportation. As such, it is recommended that the patients activate ambulances, rather than to use their own transportations to reach the hospitals. It is not known whether Malaysian patients prefer to use private transportations or ambulances when they develop chest pain. OBJECTIVES This study is conducted to exp...

As the experiment area of two-oriented society in China, Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan urban agglomeration is required with high level of environment friendliness and resource saving on its transportation system. The transportation of this area has entered into the harmonized development stage of various transport modes and improved capacity and quality. But the green degree of its transportation s...

This paper focus on the extended application of RFID to container transportation system. Based on the overview of common application of RFID technology to container, this paper studied the possibility of RFID applications to container transportation system. We categorized the application of RFID to container transportation into four hierarchies from the angle of cost and application area. It th...
