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 ...
The Influence of Economic Barriers and Drivers on Energy Efficiency Investments in Maritime Shipping, From the Perspective of the Principal-Agent Problem
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] Maritime transport stands out as a strategic sector; the increasing trend in maritime traffic makes it essential to reduce energy consumption and emissions through investment in energy efficiency. However, ...
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 ...
Overhead wires free light rail systems
(Sage, 2011)
[Abstract:] Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries in the world. Nevertheless, they are facing a
more and more demanding market which implies continuous new evolutions and technologies. An ...
High speed turnouts’ geometry
(Sage, 2011)
[Abstract:] Turnouts are singular points of the railway track. A series of advances have been added to their design in the last
20 years, in the same way as the other elements that constitute the track structure. These ...
Turf (grass) track for light rail systems
(Sage, 2012)
[Abstract:] Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries in the world. In many of the new
networks, as well as in refurbished ones, turf (grass) tracks are being used as a means to get a reserved
right ...
Alicante light rail: improving the use of existing railway lines
(Sage, 2013)
[Abstract:] The TRAM Metropolitano de Alicante (TRAM) is a unique metric (1,000 mm) gauge system that was born
as the first Spanish tram-train, but later lost the tram-train characteristic of sharing the railway tracks ...
LRT urban insertion and safety: European experiences
(Sage, 2014)
[Abstract:] This paper provides a rough design toolkit for improving the safety of LRT (Light Rail Transit) urban
insertion. This toolkit has been prepared after the analysis of more than 130 examples of good and ...
