Modelling of freight transport flows in urban transport [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 89, 2006
The topological structure of a regional urban road transport system was synthesized and the optimization-simulation procedure of topological structure was proposed. The synthesis of the topological structure of regional urban road transport freight systems enables an assessment of the impact of various structural characteristics on the functionality of

Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions Forecasting of Transport Sector Using Machine Learning

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The transport sector accounts for approximately one‐quarter of Iran's final energy consumption. The energy demand in this sector has the least variation, with petroleum products accounting for more than 85% of the demand. Furthermore, the accelerated growth of energy consumption and the sector's reliance on fossil fuels, which are the main cause of ...

How large is the gap between present and efficient transport prices in Europe? [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we analyse the gap between present transport prices and efficient transport prices. Efficient transport prices are those prices that maximise economic welfare, including external costs (congestion, air pollution, accidents). The methodology
