Pedestrian Crossings as a Means of Reducing Conflicts between Cyclists and Pedestrians in Shared Spaces

Evangelos Paschalidis

One significant and simultaneously interesting problem in urban mobility has to do with the study of shared spaces where various categories of users coexist and act together. This paper aims to examine the behavior and preferences of pedestrians and cyclis ...

Reducing personal air-travel: Restrictions, options and the role of justifications

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ralph Hansmann

An integrative environmental behavior model was applied in an online survey to investigate the determinants of intentions to reduce personal air travel and corresponding perceived restrictions and options among participants in Switzerland (N = 1206). Flyin ...

On the inefficiency of ride-sourcing services towards urban congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Caio Vitor Beojone

The advent of shared-economy and smartphones made on-demand transportation services possible, which created additional opportunities, but also more complexity to urban mobility. Companies that offer these services are called Transportation Network Companie ...

Qualité de desserte et patterns spatio-temporels : accompagner le renouvellement des politiques publiques de déplacement par une adaptation plus fine de l'offre à la demande

Alexis Gumy, Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

In a society where car use is still predominant, resistance to modal shift questions traditional planning approaches. While lifestyles are diversifying, public transit timetables are still mainly based on commuting. This paper proposes a new, interdiscipli ...

Modeling and optimization of multimodal urban networks with limited parking and dynamic pricing

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng

Cruising-for-parking constraints mobility in urban networks. Car-users may have to cruise for on-street parking before reaching their destinations. The accessibility and the cost of parking significantly influence people's travel behavior (such as mode cho ...

A three-dimensional macroscopic fundamental diagram for mixed bi-modal urban networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng, Konstantinos Ampountolas

Recent research has studied the existence and the properties of a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) for large urban networks. The MFD should not be universally expected as high scatter or hysteresis might appear for some type of networks, like heteroge ...

Tutorial Session in: Large-scale hierarchical control for congested urban networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis

This tutorial describes methodologies to model and understand the collective behavior or different types of urban systems. It highlights under what physical properties the aggregated laws will provide reasonable description of congestion for single- and mu ...

Factors affecting the adoption of vehicle sharing systems by young drivers

Dimitrios Efthymiou

Transportation patterns in big cities are redefined by the growing trend of car ownership and usage costs (e.g. the initial cost of buying a car, the constantly growing fuel prices, additional maintenance and insurance costs and the increased parking deman ...

Framework for real-time traffic forecasting methodology under exogenous parameters

André-Gilles Dumont, Sofia Samoili

Ensuing from the deteriorating conditions of road networks, traffic forecasting techniques with mathematical and computer-theory methods have been employed to address the real-time prediction of traffic conditions and their dynamic control, with the optimu ...

A Network- and Performance-based Zonal Configuration Algorithm for Electricity Systems

An efficient and non-discriminatory capacity allocation and congestion management is a core task of transmission system operators in any restructured electricity sector. For historic reasons, the allocation of transmission capacity in the European electric ...

Enhancing Park and Ride with access control: A case study of Southampton

Implementing and promoting more sustainable forms of urban transport are key policies of Local Authorities throughout the UK. Park and Ride (P&R) is one such system implemented widely in the UK, especially in historic towns and cities with limited road and ...

Mitigating network congestion : analytical models, optimization methods and their applications

Carolina Osorio Pizano

Congestion is a phenomenon that arises in a variety of contexts. The most familiar representation is urban traffic congestion. Nonetheless, phenomenons such as prison cell congestion, hospital bed blocking or, at a cellular scale, ribosome congestion, also ...
