Scaling in transportation networks [PDF]
, 2014 Subway systems span most large cities, and railway networks most countries in the world. These networks are fundamental in the development of countries and their cities, and it is therefore crucial to understand their formation and evolution. However, if

Greenhouse gas considerations in rail infrastructure in the UK [PDF]
, 2015 Transportation-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions account for an increasing proportion of total emissions in the UK and globally. The provision of rail transit is popularly proposed to reduce transport GHG emissions, but the provision of new ...

To travel or not to travel: ‘Weather’ is the question. Modelling the effect of local weather conditions on bus ridership [PDF]
, 2017 © 2017 The Authors While the influence of weather on public transport performance and ridership has been the topic for some research, the real-time response of transit usage to variations in weather conditions is yet to be fully understood.

A multi-modal network approach to model public transport accessibility impacts of bicycle-train integration policies [PDF]
, 2016 In the Netherlands, the bicycle plays an important in station access and, to a lesser extent, in station egress. There is however fairly little knowledge in the potential effects of bicycle-train integration policies.

Towards a Testbed for Dynamic Vehicle Routing Algorithms [PDF]
, 2017 Since modern transport services are becoming more flexible, demand-responsive, and energy/cost efficient, there is a growing demand for large-scale microscopic simulation platforms in order to test sophisticated routing algorithms. Such platforms have to

The influence of land use and mobility policy on travel behavior : a comparative case study of Flanders and the Netherlands [PDF]
, 2015 Numerous transportation studies have indicated that the local built environment can have an important effect on travel behavior; people living in suburban neighborhoods travel more by car than people living in urban neighborhoods. In this paper, however,

Integrating spatial and temporal approaches for explaining bicycle crashes in high-risk areas in Antwerp (Belgium) [PDF]
, 2019 The majority of bicycle crash studies aim at determining risk factors and estimating crash risks by employing statistics. Accordingly, the goal of this paper is to evaluate bicycle-motor vehicle crashes by using spatial and temporal approaches to ...

Estimating local car ownership models [PDF]
, 2007 Many studies in the transport demand literature have shown that income is an important factor in determining how many cars a household owns. When the models used to measure the strength of this relationship are estimated on cross-sectional data, they ...

Passenger transmission and productiveness of transit lines with high loads [PDF]
, 2012 Deterministic transit capacity analysis applies to planning, design and operational management of urban transit systems. The Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (1) and Vuchic (2, 3) enable transit performance to be quantified and assessed ...

Networks, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.
