Travel cost and time measurement in travel cost models TRAVEL COST AND TIME MEASUREMENT IN TRAVEL COST MODELS
In this paper we use the results of a recent on-site recreation survey to know whether it matters to use perceived rather than calculated travel costs. The calculated travel costs (time and money) are derived from detailed GIS computations. The perceived travel times and costs are taken directly from the survey responses. We first find that there is a high non-response rate for the perceived co...
متن کاملtravel time ∗
In this paper we use a model-based traffic control approach to determine dynamic speed limits with the aim of reducing fuel consumption and emissions, while still guaranteeing small travel times. The approach we propose is based on model predictive control (MPC). MPC is a modelbased control design method that combines prediction and on-line optimization of a performance criterion over a given t...
متن کاملAstronomical Distance Determination Methods and the Light Travel Time Problem
Some recent creationists have attempted to address the light travel time problem indirectly with an implied appeal to a small universe. If the universe is no more than a few thousand light years in size, then the light travel time is eliminated almost by definition. Here I survey the methods used for establishing astronomical distances. The only direct method of measuring stellar distances gene...
متن کاملTime, travel and infection.
The collapse of geographical space over the last 200 years has had profound effects on the circulation of human populations and on the transfer of infectious diseases. Three examples are used to illustrate the process: (a) the impact of the switch from sail to steamships in importing measles into Fiji over a 40-year period; (b) changes in measles epidemic behaviour in Iceland over a 150-year pe...
متن کاملTime Travel and Time Machines
This paper is an enquiry into the logical, metaphysical, and physical possibility of time travel understood in the sense of the existence of closed worldlines that can be traced out by physical objects. We argue that none of the purported paradoxes rule out time travel either on grounds of logic or metaphysics. More relevantly, modern spacetime theories such as general relativity seem to permit...
