Transfer Connection Optimization of Urban Rail Transit Based on Transfer Perception
Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.In urban rail transit networks, transfer connections between lines during off‐peak hours significantly impact passenger experience. Our study introduces a novel approach to optimize these connections based on perceived waiting time. First, we established a functional relationship between actual transfer waiting time and transfer perceived waiting time (

Uncovering Regular Travel Pattern for Metro Passenger Through Graph Neural Network
Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.This study tackles the increasing complexity of passenger travel patterns in urban rail transit systems by utilizing Automated Fare Collection (AFC) data and an enhanced GraphSAGE model. We construct detailed spatiotemporal travel graphs and introduce a weighted aggregation strategy to capture intricate network relationships.

Remaining Useful Life Modelling With an Escalator Health Condition Analytic System
Quality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 41, Issue 8, Page 3746-3758, December 2025.ABSTRACT An escalator's refurbishment is usually linked with its design life as recommended by the manufacturer. However, the actual useful life of an escalator should be determined by its operating condition, which is affected by the runtime, workload, maintenance quality and vibration, rather than age only. The objective of this project is to develop

South African Journal of Economics, Volume 93, Issue 4, Page 374-386, December 2025.ABSTRACT Several significant urban transportation projects implemented in South Africa over the last decade have had disappointing results at odds with ex‐ante and ex‐post economic appraisals of their feasibility. The economic and financial implications are significant and enduring and, in the case of the bus rapid transit (BRT) systems, have resulted ...

Public Transit Access and Income Segregation
International Economic Review, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1525-1560, October 2025.ABSTRACT What are the implications of mass transit improvements for residential income segregation within cities? I observe large income differences in households' usage of and residential proximity to “fast” versus “slow” transit (e.g., subways vs. buses on shared lanes).
