Agent-based modelling of air transport demand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Constraints such as opening hours or passenger capacities influence travel options that can be offered by an airport and by the connecting airlines. If infrastructure, policy or technological measures modify transport options, then the benefits do not ...

Decarbonising Respiratory Care: The Impact of a Low‐Carbon Salbutamol Pressurised Metered‐Dose Inhalers

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Healthcare systems contribute up to 5% of global GHG emissions, with inhalers contributing a proportion of these. The carbon footprint of current salbutamol inhalers (pMDI with HFA‐134a propellant and DPI) and a planned salbutamol pMDI with low‐GWP propellant HFA‐152a was quantified across seven countries.

Queue clearance rate method for estimating passenger car equivalents at signalized intersections

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2017
This study explored the use of queue clearance rate method for estimating passenger car equivalent (PCE) at signalized intersections. PCE was estimated based on the assumption that the rate at which a queue of vehicles clears the intersection is a ...

Self‐supervised Learning of Fine‐to‐Coarse Cuboid Shape Abstraction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The abstraction of 3D objects with simple geometric primitives like cuboids allows us to infer structural information from complex geometry. It is important for 3D shape understanding, structural analysis and geometric modeling. We introduce a novel fine‐to‐coarse self‐supervised learning approach to abstract collections of 3D shapes.

The Value of Passenger Car Equivalent using the Time Headway Method on Urban Roads

open access: yesCivil Engineering Dimension
The escalating proliferation of vehicles has had a significant impact on the existing Passenger Car Equivalent (PCE) values, making them less effective under current traffic conditions for assessing road performance.

Finite element model of laminate construction element with multi-phase microstructure

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2020
The article describes a method of creating a mesoscale finite element model of a fabric reinforced laminate that replicates the smallest repetitive fragment of its microstructure – RUC (Repetitive Unit Cell). The model takes into account the influence of

Defining the geographical level of competition: a taxonomy of industry tradability

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
Abstract The paper develops a taxonomy of industry tradability to define the geographical level at which competition takes place. First, it creates a novel dataset that combines production and international trade data for both goods and services industries, defined at a detailed (3‐digit) level of industry aggregation for 15 European countries.
