Abstract:
The future of urban transport (including passenger transportation and goods logistics) may develop in significantly different directions. Depending on changes in urban behavior, and depending on decisions made by lawmakers and governmental bodies, as well as by commercial players, this future may show a significantly reduced mobility of people and goods (for example, as depicted in the motion picture The Matrix, where people live immobilized in cocoons) or a significantly increased mobility (for example, as depicted in the motion picture The Fifth Element, where multiple layers of air traffic are added to road and rail traffic). We applied a systems thinking method to create a model for political decision makers and researchers. This model can contribute to a better understanding of the interrelations of societal factors (e.g., behavioral changes in the current COVID-19 situation), technological factors (e.g., the role of data traffic or emerging urban air traffic) and environmental factors (e.g., noise or CO2 emissions) in an urban mobility and logistics system. The research also shows that data traffic has the potential to partially substitute physical passenger and goods traffic under certain circumstances. Thus, data networks should conceptually be regarded as a new mode of transport that plays a role in the urban modal split.

Abstract:
Placing an economic dollar value on the environmental impacts of shifting products from the waterway mode to a land mode is presented. Since the original study, completed in 1991, two of the three modal shift examples discussed have taken place. What caused the modal shifts to take place and their merits are also examined. The fuel cost efficiency of the water mode is compared with that of land modes and the air emission results of burning additional fuel to move the same product tonnage. Freight rate variations between the modes are not discussed because the focus is on environmental impact cost. When comparable, waterborne transportation has an environmental cost impact of one-fifth that of rail and one-tenth that of truck transport. Accident rates on a per ton-mile basis are also discussed, but no dollar figures are available for comparison purposes at this time.

Abstract:
The main strategic goal of EU transport policy is to support public passenger transport and railway transport as a key transport mode. It is also very important to develop and improve logistic processes in passenger transport. To meet these goals it is necessary to use professional and scientific methods, for example gravitational methods. These methods can be included among progressive empirical methods and models that are used to generalize specific results and offer a general solution to the problem, from practical knowledge to theoretical formulation. These methods are utilised in the natural sciences but their using in transport processes is very important too. One of the best known empirical methods are Nyvig´s and Lill´s gravitational methods. They are especially used in transport planning and organizing, determining of the traffic potential, optimization and rationalization of timetables and traffic service. In the contribution the authors deals with using of the current and new progressive gravitational methods in the context of rail passenger transport logistics. The first chapter comprises narrow connection of the logistics and rail passenger transport including the explanation of their function in rail passenger transport. The next chapter contains an analysis the current research of raised issues. The most important scientific part conssists of theoretical concept of the gravitational methods in railway passenger transport and its various modifications. Theoretical principles of the new progressive Lill´s gravitational model form including its practical application at the chosen railway passenger transport routes are explained and analyzed in the fourth and the fifth chapter.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the use of the weighted essentially nonoscillatory (WENO) space discretization methods of third and fifth order for momentum transport in the Meso-NH meteorological model, and their association with explicit Runge–Kutta (ERK) methods, with the specific purpose of finding an optimal combination in terms of wall-clock time to solution. A linear stability analysis using von Neumann theory is first conducted that considers six different ERK time integration methods. A new graphical representation of linear stability is proposed, which allows a first discrimination between the ERK methods. The theoretical analysis is then completed by tests on numerical problems of increasing complexity (linear advection of high wind gradient, orographic waves, density current, large eddy simulation of fog, and windstorm simulation), using a fourth-order-centered scheme as a reference basis. The five-stage third-order and fourth-order ERK combinations appear as the time integration methods of choice for coupling with WENO schemes in terms of stability. An explicit time-splitting method added to the ERK temporal scheme for WENO improves the stability properties slightly more. When the spatial discretizations are compared, WENO schemes present the main advantage of maintaining stable, nonoscillatory transitions with sharp discontinuities, but WENO third order is excessively damping, while WENO fifth order provides better accuracy. Finally, WENO fifth order combined with the ERK method makes the whole physics of the model 3 times faster compared to the classical fourth-order centered scheme associated with the leapfrog temporal scheme.

Abstract:
A numerical model to simulate the performance of both rectangular and circular primary clarifiers is presented. The proposed model is restricted to those mean steady flows that are isothermal, of neutral density, low in solids concentration, and nearly two-dimensional.The strip integral technique is used to reduce the partial differential equations of continuity, momentum, and mass transport to a set of ordinary differential equations. The resulting set of equations is numerically integrated using a fifth-order, Runge–Kutta method.The full numerical model contains a hydrodynamic submodel and a transport submodel. The hydrodynamic submodel predicts the velocity field and dispersion characteristics within the clarifier, which are prerequisite for the transport submodel.The model, as presented here, was used to simulate the circular tanks used in the cities of Windsor, Ontario and Waterloo, Ontario. The predicted concentration profiles and removal efficiency were in good agreement with the measured values. Key words: numerical model, primary clarifiers, strip integral technique, transport model, concentration profiles, removal efficiency.

Abstract:
The current state and advantages of timber road transport in comparison with other types of transport used for hauling timber are presented. The factors influencing the rational choice of the rolling stock of timber trucks are given. The efficiency of using timber trucks with trailers for transportation of timber has been substantiated. Difficult conditions for the transportation of timber along timber roads, which affect the operability of the towing devices of timber trucks with trailers and the efficiency indicators of timber trucks in general, have been considered. A brief analysis of the work of foreign scientists in the field of increasing vehicle efficiency equipped with various towing devices is presented. A perspective scheme of a recuperative pneumo-hydraulic towing hitch has been proposed to eliminate the identified shortcomings of the considered designs of towing hitch devices. A mathematical model and a computer program based on it have been developed to assess the operability and efficiency of the proposed device, as well as to determine its optimal design parameters. On the basis of the performed computer experiments, it was revealed that the recuperative pneumo-hydraulic towing device allows recuperating the power of 4.7 kW at the maximum acceleration of the trailer relative to the timber truck 0.94 m/s2 when moving a timber truck with a trailer on a model timber road. It was found that the optimal diameter of the plunger cavity of the device, at which the recuperation system provides balanced effective damping, is 49 mm. It has been established that the maximum recuperative power is achieved at a speed of movement of a timber truck with a trailer equal to 32 km/h

Abstract:
Abstract This study examines a mechanism of the interaction between the tropical Atlantic meridional and equatorial modes. To derive robust heat content (HC) variability, the ensemble-mean HC anomalies (HCA) of six state-of-the-art global ocean reanalyses for 1979–2007 are analyzed. Compared with previous studies, characteristic oceanic processes are distinguished through their dominant time scales. Using the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method, the HC fields are first decomposed into components with different time scales. The authors’ analysis shows that these components are associated with distinctive ocean dynamics. The high-frequency (first three) components can be characterized as the equatorial modes, whereas the low-frequency (the fifth and sixth) components are featured as the meridional modes. In between, the fourth component on the time scale of 3–4 yr demonstrates “mixed” characteristics of the meridional and equatorial modes because of an active transition from the predominant meridional to zonal structures on this time scale. Physically, this transition process is initiated by the discharge of the off-equatorial HCA, which is first accumulated as a part of the meridional mode, into the equatorial waveguide, which is triggered by the breakdown of the equilibrium between the cross-equatorial HC contrast and the overlying wind forcing, and results in a major heat transport through the equatorial waveguide into the southeastern tropical Atlantic. It is also shown that remote forcing from El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) exerts important influence on the transition from the equatorial to meridional mode and may partly dictate its time scale of 3–4 yr. Therefore, the authors’ results demonstrate another mechanism of the equatorial Atlantic response to the ENSO forcing.

Abstract:
Abstract The response of cloud simulations to turbulence parameterizations is studied systematically using the GISS general circulation model (GCM) E2 employed in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5). Without the turbulence parameterization, the relative humidity (RH) and the low cloud cover peak unrealistically close to the surface; with the dry convection or with only the local turbulence parameterization, these two quantities improve their vertical structures, but the vertical transport of water vapor is still weak in the planetary boundary layers (PBLs); with both local and nonlocal turbulence parameterizations, the RH and low cloud cover have better vertical structures in all latitudes due to more significant vertical transport of water vapor in the PBL. The study also compares the cloud and radiation climatologies obtained from an experiment using a newer version of turbulence parameterization being developed at GISS with those obtained from the AR5 version. This newer scheme differs from the AR5 version in computing nonlocal transports, turbulent length scale, and PBL height and shows significant improvements in cloud and radiation simulations, especially over the subtropical eastern oceans and the southern oceans. The diagnosed PBL heights appear to correlate well with the low cloud distribution over oceans. This suggests that a cloud-producing scheme needs to be constructed in a framework that also takes the turbulence into consideration.

Abstract:
We hypothesized that glucose transporter 12 (GLUT12) is involved in regulation of glucose flux in distal renal tubules in response to elevated glucose. We used the Madin-Darby canine kidney polarized epithelial cell model and neutralizing antibodies to analyze GLUT12 targeting and directional GLUT12-mediated glucose transport. At physiological glucose concentrations, GLUT12 was localized to a perinuclear position. High glucose and serum treatment resulted in GLUT12 localization to the apical membrane. This mitogen-stimulated targeting of GLUT12 was inhibited by rapamycin, the specific inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). The functional role of GLUT12 was also examined. We constructed a GLUT12 cDNA containing a c-Myc epitope tag in the fifth exofacial loop. Assays of glucose transport at the apical membrane were performed using Transwell filters. By comparing transport assays in the presence of neutralizing anti-c-Myc monoclonal antibody, we specifically measured GLUT12-mediated glucose transport at the apical surface. GLUT12-mediated glucose transport was mitogen dependent and rapamycin sensitive. Our results implicate mTOR signaling in a novel pathway of glucose transporter protein targeting and glucose transport. Activity of the mTOR pathway has been associated with diabetic kidney disease. Our results provide evidence for a link between GLUT12 protein trafficking, glucose transport and signaling molecules central to the control of metabolic disease processes.

Abstract:
Abstract On summer days radiative heating of the Alps produces rising air above the mountains and a resulting inflow of air from the foreland. This leads to a horizontal transport of air from the foreland to the Alps, and a vertical transport from the boundary layer into the free troposphere above the mountains. The structure and the transports of this mountain–plain circulation in southern Germany (“Alpine pumping”) were investigated using an airborne 2-μm scanning Doppler lidar, a wind-temperature radar, dropsondes, rawinsondes, and numerical models. The measurements were part of the Vertical Transport and Orography (VERTIKATOR) campaign in summer 2002. Comparisons of dropsonde and lidar data proved that the lidar is capable of measuring the wind direction and wind speed of this weak flow toward the Alps (1–4 m s−1). The flow was up to 1500 m deep, and it extended ∼80 km into the Alpine foreland. Lidar data are volume measurements (horizontal resolution ∼5 km, vertical resolution 100 m). Therefore, they are ideal for the investigation of the flow structure and the comparison to numerical models. Even the vertical velocities measured by the lidar agreed with the mass budget calculations in terms of both sign and magnitude. The numerical simulations with the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) (mesh size 2 and 6 km) and the Local Model (LM) of the German Weather Service (mesh size 2.8 and 7 km) reproduced the general flow structure and the mass fluxes toward the Alps within 86%–144% of the observations.

Abstract:
New technological advancements such as the “Hyperloop” touted as “the fifth mode of transport” could be an answer to the problems ailing the current transport industry. Hyperloop consists of transport pods running through low pressure tubes for the high speed(upto 1000 km/hr) transportation of goods and people. This technology came into prominence after the open design concept “Hyperloop Alpha” was published by Musk (2013) and since then several governments, academia and private firms have shown interest in the technology with a few test tracks being built in the U.S and Europe. The first Hyperloop human passenger tests at 48m/s (173kmph) inside the vacuum tube were successfully carried out by Virgin Hyperloop at Las Vegas, U.S.A in November 2020 (Mlot, S., 2020). Hardt in collaboration with the Province of North Holland had published a concept study on the impact of 5 proposed Hyperloop routes in Northern Holland (Prov. N-Holland &amp; Hardt, 2020). This research project explores the proposed Hyperloop transport solution in North Holland and its neighbouring areas from a social, socio-economic and environmental perspective as a comparison with existing rail and aviation transport alternatives. A Multi-Criteria Analysis of one of the proposed Hyperloop transport project routes was conducted as a comparison with existing rail and aviation transport alternatives. Results showed that Hyperloop was the highest ranked transport alternative overall in this study, closely followed by Rail, and Aviation was ranked last. Within the social criteria, Hyperloop was ranked best whereas within socio-economic and environmental criteria, Rail was ranked as the best alternative. This MCA could be useful as an aid to decision makers such as regional and national governments, transport policymakers or investors for any similar Hyperloop transport projects within Europe.<br>Nya tekniska framsteg som ”Hyperloop” som ”femte transportsättet” kan vara ett svar på de problem som drabbar den nuvarande transportbranschen. Hyperloop består av transportbälgen som går genom lågtrycksrör för transport av gods och människor med hög hastighet (upp till 1000 km / tim). Denna teknik kom till framträdande efter att det öppna designkonceptet ”Hyperloop Alpha” publicerades av Musk (2013) och sedan dess har flera regeringar, den akademiska världen och privata företag visat intresse för tekniken med några testspår som byggs i USA och Europa. De första Hyperloop-testningarna för mänskliga passagerare vid 48m / s (173kmph) inuti vakuumröret utfördes framgångsrikt av Virgin Hyperloop i Las Vegas, USA i november 2020 (Mlot, S., 2020). Hardt i samarbete med provinsen Nordholland hade publicerat en konceptstudie om effekterna av 5 föreslagna Hyperloop-rutter i norra Holland (Prov. N-Holland &amp; Hardt, 2020). Detta forskningsprojekt utforskar den föreslagna Hyperloop-transportlösningen i Nordholland och dess närliggande områden ur ett socialt, socioekonomiskt och miljömässigt perspektiv som en jämförelse med befintliga tåg- och flygtransportalternativ. En multikriterieanalys av en av de föreslagna vägarna för Hyperloop-transportprojekt genomfördes som en jämförelse med befintliga järnvägs- och flygalternativ. Resultaten visade att Hyperloop var det högst rankade transportalternativet totalt sett i denna studie, tätt följt av Rail, och Aviation rankades sist. Inom de sociala kriterierna rankades Hyperloop bäst medan inom socioekonomiska och miljömässiga kriterier rankades Rail som det bästa alternativet. Denna MCA kan vara användbar som ett hjälpmedel för beslutsfattare som regionala och nationella regeringar, transportpolitiker eller investerare för liknande Hyperloop-transportprojekt inom Europa.

Abstract:
Thermal transport across three-dimensional Lennard-Jones superlattices, two-dimensional heterostructures of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), and in C60 molecular crystals is studied atomistically. The first two systems are studied as finite junctions placed between bulk leads, while the molecular crystal is studied as a bulk. Two computational methods are used: molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and harmonic lattice dynamics calculations in conjunction with the scattering boundary method (SBM). In Lennard-Jones superlattice junctions with a superlattice period of four atomic monolayers at low temperatures, those with mass-mismatched leads have a greater thermal conductance than those with mass-matched leads. We attribute this lead effect to interference between and the ballistic transport of emergent junction vibrational modes. The lead effect diminishes when the temperature is increased, when the superlattice period is increased, and when interfacial disorder is introduced, and is reversed in the harmonic limit. In graphene-hBN heterostructure junctions, the thermal conductance is dominated by acoustic phonon modes near the Brillouin zone center that have high group velocity, population, and transmission coefficient. Out-of-plane modes make their most significant contributions at low frequencies, whereas in-plane modes contribute across the frequency spectrum. Finite-length superlattice junctions between graphene and hBN leads have a lower thermal conductance than comparable junctions between two graphene leads due to lack of transmission in the hBN phonon band gap. The thermal conductances of bilayer systems differ by less that 10% from their single-layer counterparts on a per area basis, in contrast to the strong thermal conductivity reduction when moving to from single- to multi-layer graphene. We model C60 molecules using the polymer consistent force-field and compute the single molecule vibrational spectrum and heat capacity. In the face-center cubic C60 molecular crystal at a temperature of 300 K, we find three frequency peaks in the center-of-mass translations at 20, 30 and 38 cm􀀀1, agreeing with the average frequencies of the three acoustic branches of the frozen phonon model of the same system and suggesting that a phonon description of center-of-mass translations. We use both direct method and Green- Kubo MD simulations to predict the thermal conductivity of the molecular crystals at a temperature of 300 K. We find that the thermal conductivity of the molecular crystal is 20 to 50% lower than that of a reduced order model where only molecular center-ofmass translations are present, suggesting that molecular vibrations and rotations act as significant scattering sources for the center-of-mass phonons.

Abstract:
Dans les plasmas en mode H, la modélisation de la dynamique du piédestal est une question importante pour prédire les profils de température et de densité dans le bord et le cœur des tokamaks. Le modèle EPED , basé sur la stabilité de modes Magnetohydrodynamiques, est le plus souvent utilisé pour caractériser la région du piédestal. Ce modèle EPED ne prend pas en compte les microinstabilités pouvant se développer dans la région du piédestal. Ainsi, la prédiction des caractéristiques du piédestal est toujours une question ouverte. De plus, certaines analyses récentes des plasmas JET suggèrent qu’une autre classe d’instabilités, appelée modes de microdéchirement, peut être responsable du transport de chaleur des électrons et jouer ainsi un certain rôle dans la détermination des caractéristiques du piédestal. Les modes de microdéchirement appartiennent à une classe d’instabilités où une modification de la topologie des lignes de champ magnétique. Cela conduit à la formation d’îlots magnétiques qui peuvent augmenter le transport de chaleur électronique. La stabilité des MTMs a été théoriquement étudiée dans le passé, montrant qu’une couche de courant est stable en l’absence de collisions. En revanche, des simulations gyrocinétiques récentes ont révélé que les MTMs étaient instables, même à faible collisionalité. Le but de cette thèse est d'améliorer la compréhension de la stabilité des modes de microdéchirement en comparant une théorie analytique avec des simulations gyrocinétique. Plus précisément, différents mécanismes physiques (dérive magnétique..) ont été ajouté progressivement au modèle dans le but de réconcilier les résultats numériques avec la théorie analytique<br>In H-mode plasmas, the modeling of the pedestal dynamics is an important issue to predict temperature and density profiles in the tokamak edge and therefore in the core. The EPED model, based on the stability of large scales MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) modes, is most commonly used to characterize the pedestal region. The EPED model has been successful until now. However, EPED model does not take into account small scales instabilities linked the the sharp pressure gradient and the pedestal characteristics prediction in terms of width and height is still open. Moreover, some recent analysis of JET plasmas suggest that another class of instabilities, called microtearing modes, may be responsible for electron heat transport in the pedestal, and thereby play some role in determining the pedestal characteristics. Microtearing modes belong to a class of instabilities where a modification of the magnetic field line topology is induced at the ion Larmor radius scale. This leads to the formation of magnetic islands, which can enhance the electron heat transport. The stability of MTMs has been theoretically studied in the past showing that a slab current sheet is stable in the absence of collisions. In contrast, recent gyrokinetic simulations in toroidal geometry found unstable MTMs, even at low collisionality. The purpose of our work is to improve the MTM stability understanding by comparing new analytical theory to linear gyrokinetic simulations. More precisely, physical mechanisms (magnetic drift, electric potential) are progressively included in the analytical description to recover the numerical simulations results and to "reconcile" numerical MTM investigations with theory

Abstract:
GPS tracking data are widely used to understand human travel behavior and to evaluate the impact of travel. A major advantage with the usage of GPS tracking devices for collecting data is that it enables the researcher to collect large amounts of highly accurate and detailed human mobility data. However, unlabeled GPS tracking data does not easily lend itself to detecting transportation mode and this has given rise to a range of methods and algorithms for this purpose. The algorithms used vary in design and functionality, from defining specific rules to advanced machine learning algorithms. There is however no previous comprehensive review of these algorithms and this thesis aims to identify their essential features and methods and to develop and demonstrate a method for the detection of transport mode in GPS tracking data. To do this, it is necessary to have a detailed description of the particular journey undertaken by an individual. Therefore, as part of the investigation, a microdata analytic approach is applied to the problem areas, including the stages of data collection, data processing, analyzing the data, and decision making. In order to fill the research gap, Paper I consists of a systematic literature review of the methods and essential features used for detecting the transport mode in unlabeled GPS tracking data. Selected empirical studies were categorized into rule-based methods, statistical methods, and machine learning methods. The evaluation shows that machine learning algorithms are the most common. In the evaluation, I compared the methods previously used, extracted features, types of dataset, and model accuracy of transport mode detection. The results show that there is no standard method used in transport mode detection. In the light of these results, I propose in Paper II a stepwise methodology to detect five transport modes taking advantage of the unlabeled GPS data by first using an unsupervised algorithm to detect the five transport modes. A GIS multi-criteria process was applied to label part of the dataset. The performance of the five supervised algorithms was evaluated by applying them to different portions of the labeled dataset. The results show that stepwise methodology can achieve high accuracy in detecting the transport mode by labeling only 10% of the data from the entire dataset.  For the future, one interesting area to explore would be the application of the stepwise methodology to a balanced and larger dataset. A semi-supervised deep-learning approach is suggested for development in transport mode detection, since this method can detect transport modes with only small amounts of labeled data. Thus, the stepwise methodology can be improved upon for further studies.

Abstract:
The following research looks into the concept of sea-air intermodality, a combination of two or more modes of transport for the carriage of goods from origin to destination. The study examines why and how this form of transport evolved to become a viable alternative to the conventional single modes of ocean and air transport. The viability of the sea-air mode depends on various equally important factors which are analysed in depth, with a special emphasis on the sea-air transfer port. fn this context, research findings of the world's existing sea-air hubs are recorded and evaluated in terms of their present and future trends. At a sea-air transfer hub, ocean cargo is converted to direct air freight, thus adding new volumes of air cargoes. In this respect, sea-air plays a positive role in the present and future development of the air freight industry. The impact of the sea-air mode can be most clearly seen in the case study analysis in Chapter 10 of this thesis, whereby the potential for 'convertibility' of large portions of low density ocean cargoes to the sea-aix mode, is successfully demonstrated.
