Abstract:

A socially sustainable transport system has to make sure that opportunities are accessible to all. The social dimension is important as transport-related barriers can contribute to social injustice. A well-functioning transport system should promote greater equity by linking people and places together. The discussion in this thesis revolves around the main concept of individual mobility. It refers to the ease with which an individual can move from one place to another to access opportunities. The main research objective of the thesis is to investigate the factors affecting individual mobility of three selected transport-disadvantaged groups, namely children, working mothers and the elderly. The thesis presents three in-depth case studies within a framework of time geography. Each study highlights the individual mobility problems confronted by the selected transport-disadvantaged group. The first case study is a detailed investigation of children’s mobility to access educational opportunities. The next chapter examines gendered mobility of working mothers and their counterparts. Finally, a walkability study is carried out to evaluate how the walking environment affects outdoor mobility of the aging population. This research employs a suite of methods in evaluating individual mobility. Children’s access to educational opportunities is examined through the computation of the size of potential path area and the number of weighted opportunities reachable within given space-time constraints. To move on, multilevel analysis is carried out to compare the daily activity spaces of married couples. Finally, a walkability assessment is conducted to evaluate factors affecting older people’s access to health-care facilities. These approaches build up to a comprehensive and holistic view to explore the issue of socially sustainable transport. By providing a more focused picture on the transport problems faced by groups which run the risks of being excluded in the mainstream transport development, this study has the potential to provide a new and comprehensive outlook in the theme of social sustainability in transport research. This thesis brings the social, spatial and temporal dimensions together in planning for a socially sustainable transport system. The results of each case study provide advice and develop initiatives to work towards a more inclusive, equitable and sustainable society. The findings from the chapter on children show that place disadvantage is an important issue to be addressed. For working mothers, the household responsibility hypothesis is evident, despite the compact city environment. The final chapter shows that active transport can benefit elderly citizens in a multitude of ways. More walkability assessments surrounding health-care and other opportunities should be looked into and audited. From the findings, the research concludes that the needs of these groups are not thoroughly addressed in Hong Kong, and related geographical research is also limited in the field. The urge to address the preferences and needs of these groups are of strategic importance. Recommendations for future research include an improved understanding of the needs among an expanded range of stakeholders and depending on the locations in where they live.

Abstract:

The thesis has as a general aim to analyse if and to what extent automated urban transport systems (AUTS) can provide more sustainable mobility in urban areas. AUTS is defined as a transport system with the following properties. AUTS consist of a fleet of road vehicles with fully automated driving capabilities for passenger transport on a network of roads with on-demand and door-to-door capability. The vehicle fleet is under control of a central management system in order to meet a particular demand in a particular environment. Key Findings are that various related systems and technologies which provide one or more of the functionalities of AUTS have proven to be feasible and to provide some of the benefits anticipated for AUTS. A number of early AUTS applications have already been used or tested since 1997; these systems have proven to be safe and reliable, but various perceived risks so far delayed a wider implementation. Users and stakeholders were able to envisage the potential of AUTS to improve urban mobility, but some concerns remained at this stage over technology being mature enough for systems in mixed traffic. After having used the system, public acceptance increased, as due to the innovative characteristics of AUTS, users who had no direct experience with the system before, developed a different attitude. AUTS vehicle performance parameters including acceleration, deceleration, and jerk are below benchmark values for comparable systems in terms of comfort and safety levels for passengers. AUTS as part of the multi-modal public transport system and with accompanying measures can improve .network efficiency and reduce travel times. The research has shown that there is large potential for AUTS to provide more sustainable mobility in urban areas. But a number of implementation barriers have been identified, which so far have hindered a more widespread and large-scale implementation of AUTS. Future work in this field therefore has to address these issues and to develop means to overcome these barriers in order to realise the potentials of AUTS. Furthermore sensor technologies and robotics algorithms have to be further improved, and new vehicle, infrastructure and operational concepts have to be developed for larger and more advanced systems.

Abstract:

C02 emissions are one of the main causes of the greenhouse effect. Reactions between C02 and H2, such as methanol synthesis and methanation, could play an important role in reducing these emissions. The low methanol yield, both selectivity and conversion, is the main problem in the methanol synthesis. Methanation could be considered as another alternative process, because recent research showed that the yield in methanation'process is high, the conversion of C02 to C~ was nearly 100%. By using a combination of the Zero Emission Petrol Vehicle (ZEPV) concept, catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 and methanol to gasoline (MTG) process gasoline can be re-synthesised from recycle C02. The objectives of this thesis are to examine the methanol sY!lthesis behaviour in the lab scale tubular catalytic reactor, to investigate the effect of molecular Sieve 4A (MS 4A) on this synthesis and to analyse the feasibility study for a re-syn fuel refinery. First, methanol synthesis experiments were performed on a CuO/ZnO/AhOJ catalyst at 190- 2200 C, 1 bar, 3600 - 7200 h-I and H2/C02 = 3 - 4. The results indicated that methanol was produced from reaction between H2 and CO2 at those conditions. A maximum C02 conversion was reached at 1900 C, 1 bar, 3600 h-I and H2/C02 = 4. The numerical model results predicted that the initial rate of methanol synthesis increase sharply at pressures into 50 atm and is then relativ~ly constant at pressures above 50 atm. At 50 atm, the initial rate ratio is predicted to increase 35 - 45 times than the initial rate at 1 atm. The presence of water is one of the problems affecting the synthesis. Then to investigate the effect of adding a desiccant, methanol synthesis using a CuO/ZnO/AhOJ catalyst and a MS 4A were carried out at the conditions with the maximum CO2 conversion. The results showed that MS 4A adsorbed water hence the conversion of C02 increased from 1.13% to 2.12%. According to the numerical model, these conversions are predicted 35 - 45 times at pressure around 50 atm. Finally, material and energy balances were calculated for four possible chemical pathways for this re-synthesis (the direct CO2 hydrogenation, the Camere process, the methane to methanol process and the electrolysis process) to determine energy requirements in the re-syn fuel refineries. By using the ZEPV concept, some 70 MT/year of C02 from the combustion of about 22 MT/year of gasoline in around 30 million vehicles in UK can be liquefied at 70 bar and stored on board. This liquid C02 is available to be converted back to gasoline via methanol. The 30% conversion, which was obtained from combination of experiment and numerical model results, was applied for direct hydrogenation of CO2. For the other chemical pathways, the conversion used was based on previous studies. Carrying out this recycling in a set of geographically distributed 're-syn fuel' refineries using offshore wind energy has no further requirement for exploration of crude oil, no limitation of raw material and furthermore no cost penalty for the emitted carbon value. The economic analysis shows that the present (2008) forecourt price for the typical oil refinery (98 p/l) is lower than this forecourt price for the 're-syn fuel' refinery using the offshore wind energy (l09 p/l). By predicting that the wind energy cost will be reduced to as Iowa 2.5 plkWh in the future (2020), it is estimated that the forecourt price of gasoli~e from this futuristic sustainable resynthesis refinery would be decreased to 89 p/l. This forecourt price is cheaper than the current gasoline forecourt price from a typical conventional oil refinery. Based on this preliminary economic assessment, gasoline re-synthesis from recycled CO2 using offshore wind energy is both perfectly sustainable and almost competitive for today and will be cheaper than gasoline from crude oil in the future.

Full text

Abstract:

Traffic system analysis and planning is a very complex process that requires quality input data collected on a relevant sample and over a relevant time period. The project Sustainable Urban Mobility Boost Smart Toolbox aims at development of the methodology (toolbox) in data rich reality, which is combining traditional and novel data science approach for transport system analysis and planning. It enables digital transformation of existing (traditional, ingrained) analytic methodologies by novel utilization of mobile network infrastructure as urban mobility data sources (spatio-temporal data on population migrations gathered from anonymized mobile network logs) and data science capabilities. The project is funded by the EIT Urban Mobility Regional Innovation Scheme RIS 2020. The end product will provide transport planners with insight in spatial distribution of commuters and their transport means. Also, it will propose methodology for the identification and implementation of the measures for improvement of the transport system based on input data. Primary goal of the Project is to provide universal methodology suitable for any city to create sustainable transport system.

Abstract:

Sustainable first/last/only-mile (FLO-mile) transport is the key to sustainable travel. It could directly replace private car use for short urban journeys, which account for 1% of global greenhouse gas emissions. More importantly, it could enable public transport to be used for longer journeys, which account for 6% of emissions. Active travel, such as walking and cycling, has the lowest emissions and provides huge economic benefits that pay for the required infrastructure many times over. Unsettled Issues Regarding First- and Last-Mile Transport discusses the mass switch to more sustainable modes of transport and how to increase their perceived value to users. It also covers the prioritization of publicly owned cycles over rideshare options due to the latter’s higher lifecycle emissions, including manufacture, redistribution, and service operations and station construction.

Abstract:

Urban transportation is on the one hand a vital component of a city and on the other a major factor of concern. The latter is due to the high impact on air pollution, carbon dioxide emissions, and fatalities. This is not just caused by the mobility of people but also, and increasingly, by the need to transport goods. Cities in Central Asia are often associated with strong air pollution and rising greenhouse gas emissions from urban transport contradicting the global strive for a carbon-neutral world by 2050. In the light of sustainable development, it is, therefore, the objective to reduce the externalities of urban mobility and urban logistics jointly. The German-Kazakh University in Almaty envisions fostering the transformation to sustainability in Central Asia by setting up a climate center. One pillar will be urban transport. In this working paper, an interdisciplinary team of experts from Kazakhstan and Germany investigates fields of action and research for this center. The team describes stakeholders to involve, potential funding opportunities, and first actions for each of the identified fields. The working paper provides a fruitful basis for academics and partners to set up the center and to involve new partners.

Abstract:

The Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) is a concept of the European Union. The non-binding guidelines formulated within this framework aim to help municipalities and cities to strategically define a local and long term transport and mobility plan. From the European Union's point of view, citizen participation plays a pivotal role during all phases – from the development of the plan until its implementation. This intends to achieve greater support and acceptance from the community for the plan, and to facilitate its implementation. This paper investigates whether the planning and political SUMP approach guarantees successful participatory processes, and what conclusions can be drawn to amend the SUMP process and general transport planning practice. It discusses how citizen participation is defined in the SUMP guidelines and how these elements are reflected in the SUMP guidelines of 2013 and 2019. In a second step, this paper shows how successful citizen participation is defined in an academic context and to what extent the SUMP reflects these findings. The findings derived from the academic context are then applied to the case studies of Ghent and Limburg in order to evaluate how successfully participation procedures were implemented in these SUMP processes. Finally, the question - what conclusions can be drawn from this to improve the SUMP process and general transport planning practice - is assessed.
