Abstract In a pre-registered 2 × factorial between-subject randomized lab experiment with 61 federal judges, we test if the law influences judicial decisions, it does so more under rule than standard, and how its influence compares to that of legally irrelevant sympathies. Participating judges received realistic materials relatively long period time (50 min) decide an auto accident case. We fin...

Freight and passenger transport are two main functions of the infrastructure and transportation networks in each country. It is required to efficiently utilize the transportation infrastructures to increase transportation-related performance measures. In this study, data envelopment analysis (DEA) model is used to evaluate performance of the Iranian provinces from the freight and passenger tran...

The paper discusses requirements for freight modelling and presents specific approaches concerning freight surveys, demand and network modelling, rail freight optimisation and freight assignment including: • Surveying methods for collecting road based demand data. • WIVER/VISEVA: a demand modelling system for urban and regional commercial transport. • SPIN: a multimodal network model for interm...

So much so that establishing whether a sequence of full truckload transportation requests, each with a dispatch window at the origin, can feasibly be executed by a driver is no longer a matter of simple forward simulation. We consider this problem and prove that the feasi...
