Sustainable transportation infrastructure is of paramount importance in addressing the environmental and societal challenges associated with urbanization. This abstract explores key elements strategies for developing sustainable cities. It focuses on promoting modes that are environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, socially equitable. The transition to requires a holistic approach integrates...

a r t i c l e i n f o One issue with air transportation and sustainability is that although aviation could be considered economically and socially sustainable, it does generate environmental concerns. The aim of this paper is to examine public attitudes towards air transportation and sustainability, in order to determine how individuals value sustainability in relation to air travel. This empir...

Sustainable development (SD) requires companies to take into account both the social and environmental consequences within their activities. This paper presents research about green supply chain management and highlight the differences between green supply chain and traditional supply chain management. Then, the paper analyses the sources of the risk in green supply chain according to the SD. S...

Sustainable development is one of the themes of the world today. Considering growing urban traffic problems and urban environmental problems, developing sustainable transport is particularly important. Based on the urban traffic sustainable development theory, an evaluation index system of traffic sustainable development is built using analysis method and testing methods of index system. Then a...

This study examined interactions of environmental and safety measures for road transportation. The results showed that a vast majority of the examined measures support both policy objectives and thereby contribute effectively to sustainable transportation. However, there were also measures with conflicting effects, although the number of those measures was limited. In addition, there were a num...

A hybrid hydrogen-carbon (H(2)CAR) process for the production of liquid hydrocarbon fuels is proposed wherein biomass is the carbon source and hydrogen is supplied from carbon-free energy. To implement this concept, a process has been designed to co-feed a biomass gasifier with H(2) and CO(2) recycled from the H(2)-CO to liquid conversion reactor. Modeling of this biomass to liquids process has...

In this paper, we show how sustainable supply chains can be transformed into and studied as transportation networks. Specifically, we develop a new supply chain model in which the manufacturers can produce the homogeneous product in different manufacturing plants with associated distinct environmental emissions. We assume that the manufacturers, the retailers with which they transact, as well a...

Sustainability and sustainable development have been the main theme of many international conferences, such the UN Rio de Janeiro 1992 Earth Summit This was followed by the appearance of the global conferences at the late of the nineties and the early of 2000 to confirm the importance of the sustainable development .it was focused on the importance of the economic development as it is considere...
