Retrospective verbal protocols collected throughout participants' performance of a multiplication verification task (e.g., "7 x 3 = 28, true or false?") documented a number of different strategies and changes in strategy use across different problem categories used for this common experimental task. Correct answer retrieval and comparison to the candidate answer was the modal but not the only s...

Recent neurophysiological research in the monkey has revealed bimodal neuronal cells with both tactile receptive fields on the hand and visual receptive fields that follow the hands as they move, suggesting the existence of a bimodal map of visuotactile space. Using a cross-modal congruency task, we examined the representation of visuotactile space in normal people and in a split-brain patient ...

Searching for achieving an ambitious reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, the EU has set as a goal modal shift freight transport of 30% by rail near future. In this context, it is vital to use choice models road versus assess shippers’ acceptance actions promoting rail. This paper develops combined model jointly evaluating split and railway flows, addressed case when based on random utility a...

Hybrid drive train technology has demonstrated high potentials to reduce fuel consumption in the transportation sector. In hybrid vehicles energy is saved by regenerating kinetic energy while braking, by operating the internal combustion engine in a more efficient speed and torque region and by turning the engine off when unused. Hybrid architectures on the market can be categorized into three ...

As city-level modal splits are outcomes of city functions, it is essential to understand whether and how attributes affect derive a shift toward low-emission travel modes sustainable mobility in cities. This study elucidates this relationship between 46 cities worldwide, proposing two-step data mining framework. First, using the K-Means method, we classify into private-vehicle-, public-transit-...
