Abstract:
Organization efficiency is a pivotal paradigm for an organization’s profitability in short-term cycles and long-term sustainability as a responsible stakeholder of a society. Measurement of organizational efficiency primarily depends on tracking the performance of the organization based on key performance indicators established commonly and differently by sectors. Literature on measuring organizational efficiency is limited in quantity and qualitatively poor, specifically on organizations operating in the Middle East and the Arabian Gulf where specific culture and traditions take precedence. This paper brings about a comparative review on organizational efficiency models, measurements, and indicators based on international best practices and conduct a comparative analysis from the Qatari organizational context. The methodology involved in measuring and benchmarking organizational sustainability identify the “as is” state of organizational sustainability and efficiency in the organization. Identifying the best sustainability practices across peer organizations and equipping organizations with the appropriate tools and skills to implement the identified best practices to fill the efficiency gap is essential. Defining and benchmarking indicators with peer organizations help the management to understand the “as is” state of the organization and is the impetus for the advancement of short- and long-term sustainability goals. The key performance indicators and focal themes for air transport, electricity–public utility, oil and gas, retail banking, and steel manufacturing are compared and identified.

Abstract:
The business environment in which russian organizations operate is complex due to the intense competition between business partners. In such conditions, organizations are forced to adapt to the imperfections of the legal framework, search for qualified personnel, solve issues related to the physical and moral deterioration of fixed assets, lack of current assets and cash, imperfect tax policy, insolvency of business partners, etc.to ensure their own economic security. Economic security is considered at two levels: at the macro level, that is, as the security of the state, and at the micro level – as the security of the organization. In this study, we will understand the economic security of an organization as a condition in which it is protected from external and internal threats, as well as aimed at obtaining a stable income in an uninterrupted operation and using all the resources available to it. Economic security can be characterized not only by qualitative, but also quantitative indicators. The most significant quantitative indicator is the level of economic security, which is an assessment of the state of use of the organization's resources according to certain criteria. Economic security management is a complex mechanism on which the well-being of an organization depends. In turn, to implement such a mechanism, it is necessary to create a system for managing the organization's economic security. At the same time, the organization's economic security management system consists of a set of organizational and managerial, regime, technical, preventive and propaganda measures aimed at protecting the organization's interests and property from both external and internal threats. In many cases, enterprises create their own security system to manage and ensure economic security of their financial and economic activities. However, it should be taken into account that it is impossible to create a universal system of economic security suitable for any organization, since each organization is unique, with its own characteristics of work, capabilities, potential and is focused on a specific market segment.

Abstract:
Sustainability has been seen as a crucial issue that is being faced by many sectors in Malaysia which involves manufacturing sector. The Malaysian government has enhanced manufacturing organizations to apply green practices in the working environment to achieve corporate sustainability performance. In order for an organization to achieve corporate sustainability performance, the practices of the organization in using green technology such as sustainable transport is very important. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of sustainable transport on corporate sustainability performance with the moderating role of organization age. Drawing data from 130 Malaysia chemical manufacturing organizations, the model studies the moderating role of organization age on the sustainable transport and the corporate sustainable performance of the organizations. Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis is used in this study in order to analyze the data and the multistage sampling technique has also been used in this study. The results show that there is a positive relationship between sustainable transport and corporate sustainability performance. The results also suggest that organization age do not moderates the effect of sustainable transport and corporate sustainability performance. In achieving corporate sustainability performance, this study is important as it will guide employees in the manufacturing sector especially in chemical manufacturing organizations to practice the appropriate green practices such as sustainable transport.

Abstract:
Road transport safety is a major concern across Europe due to the human and socio-economic costs associated with work-related traffic accidents. Traditional approaches have adopted regulatory and technical measures to prevent road accidents leaving aside the organizational factors that might contribute to road transport safety. However, contemporary sociotechnical systems theory acknowledges the need to take into account organizational factors. This study adopts a sociotechnical approach and it examines the relationship between a number of organizational factors (organizational learning and training) and road traffic accidents in the organizations under study. Our sample was composed of 107 road transportation organizations from Spain. Binary logistic regression analyses were carried out to test our hypotheses. Organizational size and type of transport (goods or passengers) were included in the model as control variables. Results showed that in those organizations where organizational learning was supported, the occurrence of traffic accidents was less likely. Unexpectedly, the relationship between training and the occurrence of traffic accidents was not significant. Thus, findings partially supported the formulated hypothesis. Future research should shed light on the relationship between training and traffic accidents taking into account potential intervening variables.

This article explores the extent to which innovations are driven by the project management office (PMO), an internal unit within owner and operator organizations that is responsible for overall project assurance and control. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with organizational members of Transport for London (TfL), a public transport owner and operator organization and a key stakeholder in the UK infrastructure sector. This was combined with the analysis of four project assurance reviews initiated and delivered by TfL. The findings demonstrate that the PMO provides opportunities for building and enhancing innovative capabilities of the owner and operator organization.

Abstract:
Business decisions, transport organizations are guide by the principles of maximizing economic efficiency, reducing costs, and corporate social responsibility. Nevertheless, in the production and economic activities of transport enterprises, there are non-productive costs associated with their environmental activities: payment for excess and permissible pollution, costs of eliminating the consequences, accumulated damage, etc. To minimize this type of costs, it is propose to build a model of the activity of transport organizations from the standpoint of a systematic approach, which includes production processes, elements of production processes, management functions, and components of transport impact and aspects of corporate and social liability. The developed model can find its application in planning organizational and technical measures during their formation. The article presents information on unproductive excess costs of the transport industry of the Russian Federation in the period 2013-2016 y.o. The components of transport impact in transport organizations are considered. A model of production and economic activity of transport organizations from the standpoint of a systematic approach is proposed.

Abstract:
The relevance of the article is determined by the fact that air transport in general and the infrastructure of the airports in particular have strong negative impact on the environment. Some factors influencing the solution of this problem are considered in article, including the human factor. The quality management system in civil aviation organizations and the ecological strategy in the organizations of air transport are analysed. The examples of some Russian airports are studied. According to the authors, in addition to special technical measures, it is possible to use the incentive mechanism for employees of the air transport organization to form their responsible attitude to the accomplishment of their functional responsibilities regarding the potential impact on the ecological situation in the region.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The role of public transport is to stimulate urban, social, sustainable and economic developments by transport of passengers based on their needs with public transport organizations functioning as operators in this environment. This dissertation reports on the research done on resilience in urban public transport organizations; it presents the guiding principles and the framework of resilience and the ability of public transport organizations to embed this capability. The emerging discipline of resilience studies is multidimensional and multidisciplinary. The phenomenon has been examined to present a holistic perspective on resilience through an extensive review of the literature, supplemented by empirical research in the European public transport sector. Resilience has been defined as the capacity of an organization to survive, adapt and grow in the face of turbulent change. Existing research tends to focus on the relevance of the concept of resilience in a diversity of environments. There is little information or research that reflects the design principles and specific success factors in the public transport sector. The literature research produced several logical conclusions, which were reviewed by using structured interviews with a selected group of specialists in this field. This made it possible to determine guiding principles, to structure the framework, and to develop a unique classification of (i) the most fundamental vulnerability factors that make an organization susceptible to disruptions; and (ii) the capability factors as attributes required for sustained performance or accomplishment. All these findings are synthesised and this research establishes the ability of public transport organizations to implement a resilience approach within the boundaries of their level of advancement and prioritised direction statements. Recommendations for further research include extending the proposed framework empirically to other functions and to other organizations than urban public transport organizations.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die rol van openbare vervoer is om stedelike, sosiale, volhoubare en ekonomiese ontwikkeling te stimuleer deur die vervoer van passasiers op grond van hul behoeftes. Openbare vervoerorganisasies funksioneer as operateurs in hierdie omgewing. Hierdie proefskrif doen verslag oor die navorsing oor veerkrag in stedelike openbare vervoerorganisasies en verskaf die basiese beginsels en die raamwerk van veerkrag en die moontlikheid dat openbare vervoerorganisasies hierdie vermoë insluit. Die opkomende dissipline van veerkragstudies is multidimensioneel en multidissiplinêr en die verskynsel is ondersoek om 'n holistiese perspektief op veerkrag aan te bied deur ’n omvattende oorsig van die literatuur, aangevul deur empiriese navorsing oor die Europese openbare vervoer. Veerkrag word gedefinieer as die vermoë van 'n organisasie om te oorleef, aan te pas en te groei ten spyte van turbulente verandering. Bestaande navorsing neig om te fokus op die toepaslikheid van die konsep van veerkrag in 'n verskeidenheid van omgewings. Min inligting of navorsing weerspieël die ontwerpbeginsels en spesifieke suksesfaktore daarvan in die openbare vervoer. Die literatuurnavorsing het tot verskeie logiese gevolgtrekkings gelei, wat hersien is deur die gebruik van gestruktureerde onderhoude met 'n geselekteerde groep spesialiste in hierdie veld. Dit het dit moontlik gemaak om riglyne op te stel, die raamwerk te struktureer, en 'n unieke klassifikasie te ontwikkel van (i) die mees basiese kwesbaarheidsfaktore wat ’n organisasie vatbaar maak vir ontwrigting, en (ii) die vermoëfaktore as eienskappe wat vereis word vir volgehoue prestasie of vervulling. Al hierdie bevindings word gesintetiseer en hierdie navorsing vestig die vermoë van openbare vervoerorganisasies om ’n veerkragbenadering te implementeer binne die grense van hul vlak van vooruitgang en geprioritiseerde rigtingverklarings. Aanbevelings vir verdere navorsing sluit in die uitbreiding van die voorgestelde raamwerk empiries na ander funksies en na ander organisasies as die van stedelike openbare vervoer.

Abstract:
Internet can be described as a source of gaining knowledge through useful information founded in different social media platforms. Social media is used by organizations and customers in order to share news, offers, questions and feedback to increase the communication level. The benefit of using different types of social media platforms is to share knowledge that can be used among organizations in order to make organizational developments. Facebook is one relevant type of social media platform. Facebook is used by different types of organizations to facilitate the communication and knowledge sharing to create customer- and organizational value.The purpose of this study is to investigate how organizations handle received feedback from their customers through social media in order to improve and develop themselves. The theoretical study is based on theories that facilitate the understanding of the problem area. The empirical study is based on interviews that are made with three public transport organizations; Västtrafik, SJ and Skånetrafiken that use Facebook as a means of communication with their customers. The theoretical- and empirical study was compared and analyzed. We have reached the conclusion that Facebook can promote organizational development through the received feedback from customers. We believe that the received feedback should be in focus, as the customer is the end user, in order to create customer- and organizational values.

Abstract:
Why do some large organizations succeed during transformations and others do not? This thesis aims to contribute and expand the discussion of how product development capabilities could enable success during transformations. To investigate the problem, a qualitative case study was performed at a large transport and truck incumbent, Scania CV AB. The transport and truck industry is currently pressured to transform, both from a competitive and sustainability perspective. In order to become more adaptable to change, the thesis identified the importance of clearly applying ambidexterity as a strategy to cope with challenges that the transformation implies. However, when applying ambidexterity, interface challenges between exploitation and exploration occur. Success during transformations is mainly dependent on the management to handle those interface challenges properly. This thesis identified two main managerial practices that could benefit incumbents in the transport and truck industry to become more adaptable during a transformation phase. Firstly, a clear strategy of how to manage innovations over time could support large incumbents to leverage innovations for optimal experimentation, scalability, and later profit. Secondly, clear organizational alignment between functions to enhance communication and prioritization especially between exploitative and explorative business activities could support large incumbents to leverage radical innovations within the organization. This thesis argues that implementing structural ambidexterity combined with a clear and streamlined innovation transfer process in three distinct horizons for mature, growth, and future businesses will increase adaptability during transformation pressure. As the main area of future research, this thesis proposes to further investigate the opportunities of an open innovation strategy that leverages partnerships for co-creation in an increasingly interconnected transport ecosystem.
Hur kommer det sig att vissa företag lyckas under industriell förändring och andra inte? Syftet med denna uppsats är att bidra till, och utvidga, diskussionen om hur kapabiliteter inom produktutveckling kan främja en lyckad transformation. För att undersöka problemet genomfördes en kvalitativ fallstudie på ett etablerat företag inom transport och lastbilsindustrin, Scania CV AB. Transportindustrin är för närvarande under stor press, både från ett konkurrens- och hållbarhetsperspektiv. Denna studie visar att, för att bli mer adaptiv och hantera förändring, är det av yttersta vikt att implementera en tydlig strategi för en tvehänt (ambidextrous) organisation. En av de största utmaningarna vid en sådan implementation är dock de starka spänningar som uppstår i gränssnitten mellan det operationella och det utforskande inom organisationen. Hur de hanterar dessa utmaningar från ett ledarskapsperspektiv, kommer därav vara en av de främsta faktorerna till om företaget lyckas anpassa sig till förändring. I studien har två grundläggande principer för ledarskap identifierats, vilka kan hjälpa etablerade företag inom transport- och lastbilsindustrin att bli mer adaptiva under förändring. För det första, en tydlig strategi för att hantera innovation över tid, kan stötta ett etablerat företag att optimera innovation, skalbarhet och vinst. För det andra, en tydlig organisations- och ledarskapsinriktning som lyfter kommunikation och underlättar prioritering mellan förvaltande och utforskande aktiviteter och avdelningar. Denna studie argumenterar för strukturell separering av organisationen, kombinerat med en process för att överföra innovationer. Detta kan åstadkommas genom en uppdelning på tre horisonter; mognad, tillväxt och framtid, vilket kommer att öka företagets anpassningsförmåga under förändring. Denna studie har avgränsats till att inte närmare undersöka hur partnerskap kan hanteras i det allt mer sammankopplade transportsystemet. Detta är dock identifierat som ett möjligt behov av att närmare undersöka hur strategier för open innovation kan främja partnerskap och samproduktion inom området.

Abstract:
Sweden is an eco-modernist society where environmental, social and economic growth support each other. It is an industrialized country where the trade via road has tremendously increased. Road freight is a fundamental issue of sustainability because it is environmentally, socially and economically very challenging to move the product from the origin to end user. In addition to road freight, all components of logistics system are necessary to take into account in order to move the product form the origin to consumer. All logistics components have environmental, social and economic impact because there is a relationship between sustainability and organizational activities. In this dissertation, by using inductive approach, it has been analyzed that how the logistics organizations in Sweden are dealing with sustainability issues. The practices of the companies related to environmental sustainability and social sustainability are effective, technically feasible and economically viable. Organizations are working on the behalf of their sustainable integrated business plan that is simultaneously valuable for the environment, people and for the company itself in terms of profitability. For the firms, sustainable integrated business plan means that their strategies to earn profit reflect the environmental and social sustainability as well. The both environmental and social strategies are actually the regulators of the value chain of the organization with a vision to get profitability. These strategies engender the proficiency and competency into the company to remain profitable and competitive in the market. Doing business in a way that the society and the environment would not be harmed is actually economically beneficial for the organization because it actually helps the organization in reducing its cost. Each pillar of sustainability is important to sustain another pillar. Economic sustainability is important to improve environmental and social sustainability however, environmental and social sustainability are the key to achieve economic sustainability. Above all, it has been found that economic sustainability is not only dependent upon environment and society but also on the target market, business trend and other measures. Some futuristic concerns of the organizations regarding sustainability have also been found and all organizations are determinant to achieve more sustainability on the basis of those futuristic concerns.

Abstract:
Construction and operation of cross-boundary transportation infrastructure is a challenge at the local, state, and international levels. Trends in travel patterns show increases in travel demand in both the United States and Europe resulting in greater attention to cross-boundary infrastructure and services. In the United States, this challenge has arisen most frequently in provision regional transit services and infrastructure while Europe is faced with a challenge of connecting its member-states. One question that remains unknown is whether when governments are faced with providing cross-boundary infrastructure or services, do they develop similar organizational arrangements when meeting these challenges regardless of what level of government is involved? This research asks whether governments at all levels of governance develop similar organizational solutions in the construction and operation of transport infrastructure. This question is answered through an examination of regional transit provision in seven U.S. metropolitan areas, six commuter rail systems in the United States, a series of bi-state river highway bridges in the United States, and five cross-border segments of the Trans-European Transport Network in the European Union, three similar organizational arrangements types were found to govern cross-boundary provision of transportation infrastructure and/or services. These three types, an independent entity, an intergovernmental agreement or contract, or direct financial payment, were found at all levels of governance. The research suggests that there is a relationship between the complexity of the service involved the level of financial control indicating that more complex operations such as network of services requiring day-to-day operation tend to be arranged as independent entities with various levels of public and/or private financing.

Abstract:
Over the last few decades there has been a statistical increase for the use of criminal background check. Organizations that operates in the business of transport and logistics have developed the control of criminal records before employment as a standardized recruitment tool. This, despite of the lack of constitutional support for the use of it. This study aims to study and problematizing the use of the criminal records. Furthermore, this study aims towards a deeper understanding of how organizations reasons and how the assessment is made if an individual has been previously convicted. The empirical material is gathered through qualitative interviews with representatives from different organizations working within the bransch. The results shows that despite the lack of constitutional support, all informants base their assessment in a similar way. Theoretically, this indicates that a moral structure has been developed around this issue. Through the study's theoretical framework, the study’s findings indicate that the criminal record is perceived to contribute to producing trust, reducing risks and increasing organizations security.

Abstract:
The present work deals with different aspects concerning the collective action of cytoskeletal molecular motors. The thesis is organized in two parts: the first part corresponds to the study of the cooperative action of molecular motors in intracellular transport, whereas the second part corresponds to the study of oscillatory dynamical instabilities driven by molecular motors. In the first part of the thesis, we carry out complete theoretical and experimental studies on the single-headed kinesin KIF1A, which constitutes a remarkable example of Brownian motor and a model motor to study intracellular transport. We provide a thorough numerical study of the collective action of single-headed KIF1A motors based on Brownian dynamics. We predict a dramatic improvement of the collective performance of these motors for tasks associated to the transport of membrane-bound cargoes. From a biological point of view, our results reinforce the hypothesis that the specificity of KIF1A to axonal vesicular trafficking is due to its unique adaptation to cooperative force generation. From a fundamental physics point of view, we show that Brownian motors based on two-state ratchets with independent switching and under unequal loading are remarkably adapted to cooperative force generation. We further test our predictions using a lattice model to study the dynamics of two interacting KIF1A motors. We show analytically the presence of cooperativity in the system and we consider a first extension of the problem to an arbitrary number of motors. Finally, we test our theoretical predictions experimentally, by using biomimetic tube pulling assays with single-headed KIF1A motors. We show that, despite the extreme inefficieny of the individual motors, they are able to cooperate collectively to extract membrane tubes, thus validating our theoretical predicitions. Additionally, we find the surprising formation of helical tubes around microtubules. This entails an impressive capability of single-headed KIF1A motors to exert significant off-axis by virtue of a diffusive state. Accordingly, this state affords two complementary strategies to overcome obstructions: brute force and manoeuvreing capability. In a series configuration (in line) it enables the generation of large forces by accumulation of motors, whereas in a parallel configuration (side by side) it enables lateral displacement of the cargo. In the second part of the thesis, we study the generation of dynamical instabilities driven by molecular motors. In particular, the spontaneous oscillations in a minimal in vitro actomyosin system and the self-organized flagellar beating driven by axonemal dynein. In the first case, we study theoretically an actomyosin system coupled to an elastic element, generating spontaneous oscillations in the presence of ATP via a Hopf bifurcation. This problem mimics the mechanism responsible of the asynchronous wing thrust observed in some insect species. We show that the theoretical model, based on an integro-differential system of equations, can be reduced to a simple three-dimensional ODE system. We find that both the complete and reduced systems exhibit subharmonic oscillations in some regimes. Remarkably, subharmonic peaks were reported experimentally in the signal power spectrum of a minimal in vitro actomyosin system. Hence, we provide an explanation for this phenomenon. In the second case, we study the nonlinear dynamics of axonemal beating driven by molecular motors. The explicit nonlinear equations for the flagellar shape and dynein kinetics are derived and solved numerically. Our analysis reveals the spatiotemporal dynamics of dynein kinetics and flagellum shape for different regimes of motor activity, medium viscosity and flagellum elasticity. We find that far from the bifurcation, linearized solutions fail to describe the flagellar shape and nonlinear effects arise in the system solely due to motor activity. Finally, we further characterize flagellar dynamics using principal component analysis and studying bending initiation.
Els enormes progressos de les nanotecnologies durant les últimes dècades han permès un estudi quantitatiu dels fenòmens biològics fins arribar a l'escala d'una sola molècula. La possibilitat de visualitzar, manipular i mesurar fenòmens biològics a escala molecular obre un nou món per a la física, que pot aplicar els seus mètodes de modelització per a explicar i predir fenòmens abans inabastables des d'un punt de vista tecnològic. És en aquest marc on disciplines com ara la física estadística de no equilibri, la física no lineal o la ciència de materials tous conflueixen i juguen un paper clau. La complexitat dels sistemes biològics rau comunament en fenòmens col.lectius en situacions allunyades del equilibri, autoregulats mitjançant xarxes bioquímiques complexes les quals requereixen d'un alt grau d'autoorganització, la qual cosa implica tant fluxes de matèria i energia com d'informació. Tot i així, els nivells d'autoorganització i autoregulació involucrats en funcions cel.lulars tals com la motilitat i el tràfic intern, estan encara molt lluny d'una comprensió quantitativa satisfactòria des d'un punt de vista físic. Tals processos requereixen no només d'una visió qualitativa i descriptiva sinó també d'una perspectiva físico-matemàtica per a la seva completa comprensió. El present treball versa sobre l'estudi de l'acció col.lectiva de motors moleculars del citoesquelet, amb la finalitat de contribuir en la comprensió de la generació de força i moviment dins la cèl.lula. La tesi està estructurada en dues parts: la primera part correspon a l'estudi del transport intracel•lular degut a l'acció cooperativa de motors, en particular, l'estudi es centra en la kinesina monomèrica KIF1A, la qual constitueix un exemple notable de motor Brownià en el context biològic. En primer lloc es duu a terme un estudi teòric exhaustiu sobre l'acció col.lectiva d'aquests motors i posteriorment es validen experimentalment els resultats predits anteriorment mitjançant experiments d'extracció de tubs de membrana. En la segona part, s'estudia la generació d'inestabilitats dinàmiques degudes a l'acció cooperativa de motors moleculars. En particular, es tracten el casos d'oscil.lacions espontànees generades per un sistema in vitro d'actina i miosina, i el batec autoorganitzat de fagels degut a l'acció de dineïnes axonèmiques.

Abstract:
Public transport in Slovenia is poorly organized. The connections and timetables are poor, trains are not as fast, and the savings are not significant if the transportation of choice is a personal automobile. However, this mode of transportation more often than not involves a parking problem. Every company does not have enough parking spaces for all of their employees, which is why some people opt to drive to work together or start from home early to secure a free parking space. We will prepare an overview of the possibilities of transport to work in Slovenia, focusing on the route Ljubljana - Kranj. We will address the issues discussed from the point of view of the mode of transport to work - car, train, bus or even on foot, if the workplace is close to home. Our purpose is to determine whether we would save time and money if we were to travel to work by another means of transport, and to identify other factors that influence our decision regarding the mode of transport to work.

Abstract:
In the health sector, one of the biggest questions of modern time is the way of cutting cost while maintaining the same quality of service. Abroad, the use of pipe mail for the purpose of solving internal logistics and with that providing quality and adequacy of products and direct cut of costs related with the work force, is already widely present in hospitals. Transport with the use of pipe mail enables fast, safe and foremost economic content transfer. Hospitals abroad use the pipe mail mostly for: - transport of samples (swabs, blood, tissues) to laboratories, - transport of blood for the surgeries in operation rooms from the central blood bank, - transport of medicine from central pharmacy for surgeries in operation rooms or the need of different departments, - transport of documentation between departments and laboratories, - transport of lab test results to the department that ordered for that test. Pipe mail enables centralization – existence of one central laboratory, who takes care of all the necessary analysis, which directly means: - savings in space, - direct saving in the cost of pay due to the lowering number of employees or their redeployment, - higher efficiency (individual documentation processing, which directly means higher productivity based on the reduction of wasted time and waiting for documentation), - information renewal of processes, - reliability, timeliness and order, most importantly from the point of view of the patient, who will save unnecessary waiting time, from which most psychologically related issues arise, - the system is computer controlled and statistics are available to the system administrator at any time, - - Pipeline airmail has a significant impact on the safety of both employees and patients during an epidemic.

Abstract:
The aim of sustainable mobility is to choose means of transport that have the least possible impact on the environment. Since all motor vehicles cause a direct or indirect form of pollution, walking and cycling are an ideal form of mobility from an environmental point of view. If the use of vehicles is taken into account, public transport generates much less pollution per passenger than the car. In addition to logistical problems such as congestion and lack of parking space, the massive use of cars is a major contributory factor to a sharp deterioration in air quality in urban areas and causes emissions of greenhouse gasses. In addition to promoting sustainable forms of mobility, rational route planning is also important. It is, therefore, reasonable to prepare the timetable of activities, stressing the importance of limiting unnecessary routes. In this paper, we will see how sustainable mobility can be addressed in a higher academic environment. Several proposals are presented to optimize mobility by rationalizing the organization of students' obligations within the faculty.

Abstract:
Every day thousands of shipments of radioactive materials are transported on international and national routes. These consignments, which are carried by road, rail, sea, air and inland waterway, can range from smoke detectors and cobalt sources for medical uses to reprocessed fuel for use in electricity generation. The transport of radioactive materials worldwide is governed by stringent regulatory regime, which includes standards, codes and regulations that have been continuously revised and updated over the past four decades. The safety measures have been developed to protect the general public, transport workers, emergency response teams and the environment against the risks posed by the cargoes. These risks include the radioactivity itself and other chemical risks that the cargoes may pose, such as toxicity or corrosivity. In addition to the safety regulations, the regulatory regime addresses other, related issues such as physical protection and liability. It was recognized that these standards should provide a uniform, global regime to ensure that all parties apply the same provisions. Since 1961, the UN (United Nations) has published and periodically reviewed and updated the regulations for the safe transport of radioactive material. These regulations are used today by more than 60 countries as the basic for their national regulations. In addition, the main international modal organizations responsible for the safe transport of dangerous goods by road, rail, sea, air and inland waterways have incorporated the relevant parts of the UN regulations into their own instruments. This paper will discuss and outline the principal regulations that apply to the transport of radioactive materials such as the UN regulations for the safe transport of radioactive materials, The UN regime governing the international transport of dangerous goods, the principal modal regulations governing the transport of dangerous goods and achievement of a more harmonized regime. and the international organizations responsible for their development and implementation.

Abstract:
Due to the potentially dangerous properties of radioactive material, it is during the transport that the process of nuclear energy and technology uses are prone to nuclear and radiation accidents. Radioactive material hence must be transported with reasonable containers to achieve heat dissipation, confinement of radioactive material, radiation shielding and prevention of nuclear criticality. The key to transport safety lies in the designing and manufacturing quality of the transport containers. Therefore, the safety supervision for transport containers of radioactive material is a guarantee for the environment and the public from nuclear and radiation hazards, also is international general practice. As the most authoritative international organization, International Atomic Energy Agenda (IAEA) draws up and regularly revises safety regulation ‘Regulation for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material’, which proposes technical indicators for transport containers of radioactive material and responsibility of competent authorities. According to the transport modes, other international organizations, such as International Maritime Organization, International Civil Aviation Organization, International Air Transport Association, United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, enacted related transport safety regulations based on actual needs. This paper introduces the administrative licensing approval process for the transport containers of radioactive material in China and the research on competent authority and approval procedure in American, Russia, France, Canada, Germany and Great Britain. In China, National Nuclear Safe Administration (NNSA) is responsible for the licensing approval for the transport containers of radioactive material, including designing, manufacturing, using and transporting of transport containers. NNSA also organizes and formulates relevant administrative regulations and approval procedures, and has issued administrative regulation ‘Regulation on the Safe Management for the Transport of Radioactive Material’ and a series of administrative rules, management procedures, guide, technical documents and so on. These regulations established the sort management of radioactive materials and the responsibility for competent authority, and also stipulated approval and supervision for transport and transport containers of radioactive materials. While some other countries, such as America, certifies the transport containers of radioactive material to achieve the control. The domestic and overseas research into administrative licensing approval processes for transport containers is in view of the increasing transport of radioactive material among countries and the requirement of international transport. Transport containers with material of high potential risk, such as spent fuel, need to obtain the transport approval from the competent authority of transit or arrival country. Therefore, the research on domestic and other countries licensing management of transport containers of radioactive material, which is not only beneficial to improving the transport safety management of radioactive material in China, but also can promote international transport campaigns of radioactive material..

As Ontario expands access to the COVID-19 vaccine beyond the Phase 1 priority populations, strategic planning and execution of mass vaccine rollout will have a significant impact on the health and safety of Ontario’s 14.5 million residents. There are six key elements of Israel’s successful COVID-19 vaccine campaign that can be readily applied to Ontario to expedite and expand the province’s vaccine rollout strategy: a simple vaccine prioritization process; modification to the transport, storage, and distribution of the vaccines; effective communication to promote vaccine confidence; decentralization of vaccination sites; centralized organization through Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) using a fully integrated information technology (IT) system in a universal health care system; and the engagement of community-based personnel, infrastructure, and resources.

Abstract:
In 2018, the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center partnered with the US Army Corps of Engineers–Buffalo District, the US Environmental Protection Agency, Bowling Green State University, and the Cawthron Institute to host a workshop focused on benthic and sediment-associated cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins, particularly in the context of harmful algal blooms (HAB). Technical sessions on the ecology of benthic cyanobacteria in lakes and rivers; monitoring of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins; detection of benthic and sediment-bound cyanotoxins; and the fate, transport, and health risks of cyanobacteria and their associated toxins were presented. Research summaries included the buoyancy and dispersal of benthic freshwater cyanobacteria mats, the fate and quantification of cyanotoxins in lake sediments, and spatial and temporal variation of toxins in streams. In addition, summaries of remote sensing methods, omic techniques, and field sampling techniques were presented. Critical research gaps identified from this workshop include (1) ecology of benthic cyanobacteria, (2) identity, fate, transport, and risk of cyanotoxins produced by benthic cyanobacteria, (3) standardized sampling and analysis protocols, and (4) increased technical cooperation between government, academia, industry, nonprofit organizations, and other stakeholders. Conclusions from this workshop can inform monitoring and management efforts for benthic cyanobacteria and their associated toxins.

Full text
Abstract:
The aerospace industry is beginning to grapple with the reality of certifying electric aircraft (EA), signaling the maturing of the field. Many players are ramping up their activities to respond to imminent technical, safety, and regulatory requirements. While there are gaps in EA knowledge as well as the processes for certifying them, some leading standards development organizations (SDOs) such as SAE International, ASTM International, and RTCA—ably supported by representatives from regulatory agencies—are stepping in to address many of these issues. Of special importance are the new rule changes in the normal category (14 CFR Part 23, Amendment 64) that shift from a prescriptive philosophy to “performance-based rules.” Regarding system knowledge, there has been a trend in the use electrical energy to power systems that have long employed mechanical hydraulics. In the new EA paradigm, these components will be employed at criticality levels not previously witnessed in conventional aircraft, calling for a specific set of certification demands. Unsettled Issues Regarding the Certification of Electric Aircraft tackles the certification challenges faced by EA manufacturers in both the small (normal) and large (transport) categories, addressing technical, business, and process issues.

Abstract:
Public, fixed-route transit services most commonly operate on public streets. In addition, transit passengers must use sidewalks to access transit stops and stations. However, streets and sidewalks are under the jurisdiction of municipalities, not transit agencies. Various municipal policies, practices, and decisions affect transit operations, rider convenience, and passenger safety. Thus, these government entities have an important influence over the quality, safety, and convenience of transit services in their jurisdictions. This research identified municipal policies and practices that affect public transport providers’ ability to deliver transit services. They were found from a comprehensive literature review, interviews and discussions with five local transit agencies in the U.S., five public transportation experts and staff from five California cities. The city policies and practices identified fall into the following five categories: Infrastructure for buses, including bus lanes, signal treatments, curbside access; Infrastructure for pedestrians walking and bicycling to, and waiting at, transit stops and stations; Internal transportation planning policies and practices; Land development review policies; Regional and metropolitan planning organization (MPO) issues. The understanding, acknowledgment, and implementation of policies and practices identified in this report can help municipalities proactively work with local transit providers to more efficiently and effectively operate transit service and improve passenger comfort and safety on city streets.
