Transportation synthetic sustainability indices: A case of Taiwan intercity railway transport

The multimodal trip planning system of intercity transportation in Taiwan

The multimodal trip planning system (MTPS) described in this paper can efficiently identify reasonable journeys. Our methodologies could be implemented in future transit trip information systems. An effective MTPS would be of value to transit agencies or administrators due to the large number of different yet related characteristics of the transit network. In Taiwan, no successful MTPS exists o...

External costs of intercity truck freight transportation

From a societal perspective, it is desirable for all transportation users to pay their full social (private and external) costs. We estimate four general types of external costs for intercity freight trucking and compare them with the private costs incurred by carriers. Estimated external costs include: accidents (fatalities, injuries, and property damage); emissions (air pollution and greenhou...

Integrated Planning of Water Resources Based on Sustainability Indices, a Case Study: Hamoon- Jazmorian Basin

Nowadays, the water supply and water demand management are the main issues in water resources planning. It is more important in a river basin with a complex system facing with droughts, climate changes, inter-basin water transfer and operational and under study dams. In this paper, for water resources planning in a river basin and reducing the difference between water resources and water demand...
