The proliferation of mobile smart devices has led to a rapid increase of location-based services, many of which are amassing large datasets of user trajectory information. Unfortunately, current trajectory information is not yet sufficiently rich to support classification of user transportation modes. In this paper, we propose a method that employs both the Global Positioning System and acceler...

Transportation of blood samples is unavoidable for assessment of specific parameters in blood of patients with rare anemias, blood doping testing, or for research purposes. Despite the awareness that shipment may substantially alter multiple parameters, no study of that extent has been performed to assess these changes and optimize shipment conditions to reduce transportation-related artifacts....

An integrated urban transportation system usually consists of multiple transport modes that have complementary characteristics of capacities, speeds, and costs, facilitating smooth passenger transfers according to planned schedules. However, such an integration is not designed to operate under disruptive events, e.g., a signal failure at a subway station or a breakdown of a bus, which have ripp...

One important aspect of transportation is the choice mode. Mode selection, as one steps in planning. selection plays an role determining policy issues, relation to types modes and infrastructure available. This study aims analyze online public conventional for people Magetan Regency. Using multiple linear regression analysis, this also tries measure factors that influence In addition, probabili...

Ordinal measures are frequently encountered in travel behavior research. This paper presents a new method for combining them when a hierarchical structure of the data can be presumed. This method is applied to study the subjective assessment of the amount of travel by different transportation modes among a group of French clerical workers, along with the desire to increase or decrease the use o...

today, along with enhancement of social well-being andeconomic development, demand for transportation is growing increasingly.many countries are seeking for providing transportation servicesat a reasonable price. therefore, optimization of carrying goods on nationalor international roads is highly important in terms of costs andtransportation indicator, so that the goods are shipped at minimumc...

It has recently been demonstrated, both theoretically and experimentally, that the average flow and density of some urban traffic networks is related by a unique, reproducible curve known as the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD). For networks in which vehicles cannot adaptively re-route to avoid congestion, this relationship is robust only when there are few vehicles on the network. As thes...

The 21st century will see a renewed focus on intermodal freight transportation driven by the changing requirements of global supply chains. Each of the transportation modes (air, inland water, ocean, pipeline, rail, and road) has gone through technological evolution and has functioned separately under a modally based regulatory structure for most of the 20th century. With the development of con...
