Spatially Correlated Nested Logit Model for Spatial Location Choice
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract] Residential location choice is a key component of the models for predicting land-use and transport demand in urban planning. In general, it requires to consider correlation between spatial alternatives. The ...
Impact on City Bus Transit Services of the COVID–19 Lockdown and Return to the New Normal: the Case of A Coruña (Spain)
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] The COVID–19 pandemic led to restrictions on activities and mobility in many parts of the world. After the main peak of the crisis, restrictions were gradually removed, returning to a new normal situation. This ...
Use of a Genetic Algorithm to Optimize Wheel Profile Geometry
(Institution of Mechanical Engineers ; SAGE, 2007-07-01)
[Abstract] Wear is a very important subject for Railway Administrations because it entails very important costs. So, it seems to be logical to develop a new methodology for designing wheel profiles in order to improve its ...
Residential Location Econometric Choice Modeling With Irregular Zoning: Common Border Spatial Correlation Metric
(Springer Nature, 2020)
[Abstract] Residential location choice (RLC) predicts where and how people choose their residential location in the framework of land use–transport interaction models (LUTI). This paper seeks an efficient RLC model in the ...
Environmental Impact of Mobility in Higher-Education Institutions: The Case of the Ecological Footprint at the University of A Coruña (Spain)
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] Ecological footprint (EF) determines the area of ecologically productive territory necessary to produce the resources utilised and to assimilate the waste produced by a given population over a year. Knowing your ...
Increasing Boarding Lost Time at Regular Bus Stops during Rainy Conditions: A Case Study
(University of South Florida, 2021)
[Abstract] Inclement weather conditions affect the behavior of travelers and transportation system operations. Understanding this influence can help improve operational planning schemes for any mode of transport, especially ...
The tram-train: a new public transport system
(Sage, 2002)
[Abstract:] In response to the demand for improved mobility in metropolitan areas, the 1990s saw the development in
Europe of a new transport system known as the tram-train. This system is based on the use of
conventional ...
Track geometry for light rail systems
(Sage, 2010)
[Abstract:] As it is known, light rail systems are characterized by their running over the streets, with semi-exclusive
(or “reserved”) right of way. This fact leads to the necessity of adapting the track geometry to the ...
Analysis of the Relationship between the Characteristics of the Areas of Influence of Bus Stops and the Decrease in Ridership during COVID-19 Lockdowns
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the characteristics of the areas of influence of bus stops and the decrease in ridership during COVID-19 lockdowns and subsequent initial reopening ...
