Abstract:

The Natural Gas market in the U.S is growing rapidly with evidence that the nation has enough shale reserves to power the country for the next century. To ensure continued economic benefits through the use of this environmentally desired energy source, it becomes important to optimize the transportation network system design. Transportation through pipelines is one of the most common methods used to distribute Natural Gas from source to destination. This transportation system, consisting of pipelines, compressors and other supporting equipment, must be optimized, considering all relevant param

Abstract:

This manuscript includes an investigation of decision making in alternative modes of transportation in order to understand consumers' decision in different contexts. In essay 1 of this study, the motives for participation in situated ridesharing is investigated. The study proposes a theoretical model that includes economic benefits, time benefits, transportation anxiety, trust, and reciprocity either as direct antecedents of ridesharing participation intention, or mediated through attitude towards ridesharing. Essay 2 of this study, focuses on self-driving vehicles as one of the recent innovat

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to investigate an alternative mode of transportation for METU and the impacts of spatial transformations generated by the proposed system in an architectural context. This study embraces modern concepts of space-time in the practice of architectural design, and involves a sensitive consideration of the perception of space relative to position, speed and movement. In an urban context, the thesis unfolds spatial transformations affected by new movement technology. While the notions of movement and speed fundamentally shape the image of the contemporary city, METU campus

Abstract:

This thesis presents a methodology using a portfolio of time-series models, from conventional ARMA to a regime-changing framework. The objective is to develop an air transportation demand modeling to inspect potential structural breaks in the Brazilian market, due to solve underlying issues of new demand creation. Out-of-sample forecasting is used to generate comparative metrics aiming at both selection and validation of what we call a "champion model". Results indicate better performance of more complex models such as the fractionally integrated and the Markov-switching models. Ex a

This thesis justifies, designs and tests a new transport appraisal technique – the Transport Quality of Life (TQoL) model. In the United Kingdom the New Approach to Transport Appraisal (NATA) is presently used to appraise the economic, environmental and social impacts of transport projects. Although recently updated, NATA still does not include the assessment of individual’s travel experience – and yet, to make fully informed decisions on the impact of future schemes, it is important to understand more about passenger’s current journey quality.

Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Mode choice modelling is an important and versatile tool that can aid decision makers with transit related strategies and scenario planning. The traditional approach to modelling public transport is labour intensive and requires many resources. The expensive nature of developing mode choice models can also act as a deterrent for developing a model. Not having access to a functional mode choice model can force decision makers to make important decisions without having access to proper information. There is therefore a need to

Multi-robot systems (MRS) offer many performance benefits over single robots for tasks that can be completed by one robot. They offer potential redundancies to the system to improve robustness and allow tasks to be completed in parallel. These benefits, however, can be quickly offset by losses in productivity from diminishing returns caused by interference between robots and communication problems. This dissertation developed and evaluated MRS control architectures to solve the dynamic multi-robot autonomous routing problem. Dynamic multi-robot autonomous routing requires robots to complet

Sustainability is a broad concept which embodies social, economic and environmental concerns, including the possible consequences of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate change, and related means of mitigation and adaptation. The reduction of energy consumption and emissions are key objectives which need to be achieved if some of these concerns are to be addressed. As well as being an important component of sustainability in other sectors, a good transport system needs to be sustainable in its own right.

Abstract:

After World War II, automobile use expanded rapidly in the developed countries. As a result, travel pattern changed entirely and automobile has become the dominant form of transport in cities. As a result, the city has been shaped and sized in response to automobile needs. Such increase caused traffic problems in the Central Business Districts and surrounding areas. The problems of traffic congestion and pedestrian circulation have become an important issue in the whole city. As traffic problems have grown in developed cities, they had to be engaged in managing travel demand of people in order

During the past three decades, research in travel behavior has generally proceeded from broad-level, aggregate analysis of mode share--the proportions of walking, bicycling, transit, and vehicle travel occurring in traffic analysis zones, census tracts, neighborhood, or other geographical units--to fine-grained, disaggregate analysis of mode choices and other trip-making attributes at the individual level.

Collectively, these shifts in transportation patterns would help to reduce the negative social, economic, and environmental costs associated with high rates of personal vehic

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>資訊工程研究所<br>99<br>The transportation mode of users, such as Walk, Bus, or Car, indicates the outdoor behavior pattern of the user. As the GPS (Global Positioning System) enabled phones and mobile internet accesses become pervasive, the prediction of transportation mode becomes fundamental in the area of shopping behaviors, travel itinerary sharing and smart route recommendation. Learning transportation modes is the central issue and a two-level inference architecture is used. The first level learns change-points, locations whose transportation mode differs from the previous loca

Abstract:

The present study involves empirical investigation of the performance of transportation system in urban streets of India managing both behavioral intention of user and physical aspects of transportation system. Regression and Rasch methods are used to analyze LOS of urban street segments using road user’s perception data. Regression method produces a road user’s satisfaction measure for each user and an evaluation of its importance on the satisfaction level for each attribute. But Rasch model (RM) appears to be particularly appropriate when analyzing quality of road parameters and satisfaction

Abstract:

abstract: The growing use of synthetic population, which is a disaggregate representation of the population of an area similar to the real population currently or in the future, has motivated the analysis of its sensitivity in the population generation procedure. New methods in PopGen have enhanced the generation of synthetic populations whereby both household-level and person-level characteristics of interest can be matched in a computationally efficient manner. In the process of set up, population synthesis procedures need sample records for households and persons to match the marginal total

Abstract:

This dissertation provides three examples of how considering interactions across transport modes as well as land use systems is important for addressing the biggest challenges in sustainable development, particularly climate change and growing inequality. In the first essay, I explore path dependency in urban form for U.S. cities built around rail transit prior to the automobile. I find that these cities continue to be denser and have lower per capita transportation emissions than cities that came of age after the automobile. I estimate the size of the effect and how long it lasts. The built e

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>資訊工程學研究所<br>97<br>The whereabouts of a person not only indicates her schedule, but also reflects her lifestyle. The transportation taken and the places visited indicate the habit and preference of the user. With the growing popularity of commercial GPS loggers and GPS-enabled mobile phones, the positions of a person could be obtained and logged, and further analyzed to infer the transportation taken and places visited. Moreover, some places are more significant than others in one''s daily life. These significant places shapes the life of the person. In this thesis, we
