A consumer makes travel distance judgment to determine the place to visit. Stores that gain favorable travel distance judgment could gain access to a large volume of customer base. Travel distance judgment is often made with the aid of technologies, such as the mobile location-based service (LBS). In the present research-in-progress, we build on the human’s environmental distance information co...

It is well known that when the distance t traveled by neutrinos in matter is short, matter effects in oscillations of neutrino flavour are small and decrease with decreasing t more rapidly than the oscillations effects themselves. We discuss the reason for this and demonstrate that under certain circumstances this statement is no longer correct. In particular, we show that if neutrinos propagat...

The propagation of a pulse in a nonlinear array of oscillators is influenced by the nature of the array and by its coupling to a thermal environment. For example, in some arrays a pulse can be speeded up while in others a pulse can be slowed down by raising the temperature. We begin by showing that an energy pulse (one dimension) or energy front (two dimensions) travels more rapidly and remains...

Mobile phone location data enable us to obtain accurate and temporally detailed long-distance travel distribution. However, the traditional distribution model cannot normally handle this temporal information. This study proposes an approach for handling information of Considering approach, origin-destination matrix decomposes into two variables (indicators): destination amenity cost. They can b...

The paper discusses the problems of long distance travel surveys, with examples from recent studies, and presents results of a new long distance survey approach to overcome these problems. As part of of the 6 Framework funded KITE project (A Knowledge Base for Intermodal Passenger Travel in Europe), a new survey methodology based mainly on the MEST (Methods for European Surveys of Travel Behavi...
