Flexible Ridesharing: New Opportunities and Service Concepts for Sustainable Mobility
ISBN: 9783642113444 / Angielski / Twarda / 118 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Individual mobility is one of the most important needs of modern society and an important link between private, public and economic life. In contrast, transport also entails severe environmental and social burdens, foiling current efforts for sustainable development. As the main source of CO2 emissions, transport is a prominent driver for climate change, and individual car traffic is responsible for nearly a third of the total energy consumption. However, we have to consider that many commuters feel indeed very dependent on their car. Here, ridesharing promises to contribute to environmental...

Methodology for Development of Delay-Based Passenger Car
ISBN: 9783639156157 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Passenger Car Equivalent (PCE) of heavy vehicles in work zones have not been studied before. In this research, the concept of delay-based PCE is extended for work zones. A mathematical model was developed to determine the bounds on the delays in work zones. Conceptually the work zone is discretized into sections and assuming steady state conditions and using nite second moments, linear programs were formulated to obtain the lower and upper bounds on the average number of vehicles in the work zone. The results of the model for level terrain and upgrades were validated using an independent...

Nowadays, four-wheeled vehicles are equipped with many different active control systems which enhance driver and passengers safety. In the field of two- wheeled vehicles electronic systems for the control of vehicle dynamics are still in their infancy: only a few motorbikes are equipped with ABS systems, traction control, drive-by-wire, and semi-active suspensions. More specifically, the control systems today available on the market are expected to work at their best only in-plane conditions (zero roll angle). However, it is well known that a two-wheeled vehicle is characterized by large...

Not the Star Trek notion of tearing around the Galaxy in a huge spaceship-that was obviously beyond existing tech- nology-but a more realistic mission. In 1989 I had videotaped Voyager 2's encounter with Neptune and watched the drama of robotic exploration over and over again. I started to wonder whether we could do something similar with Alpha Centauri, the nearest star to the Sun. Everyone seemed to agree that manned flight to the stars was out of the question, if not permanently then for the indefinitely...
