Problem Background:<br/>Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in the world (Johnston et al., 2016). One of the main causes for cardiovascular mortality is a myocardial infarction (MI) (Jneid et al., 2013; Mishra &amp; Ramavataram, 2021; Verburg et al., 2019). A myocardial infarction is an event in which the heart muscle...

This research aims to understand the influencing attributes of passengers and station layout elements on transfer walking times for metro transfers. Little research has been performed to include passenger-related attributes to model transfer walking time besides station layout elements. Through a literature review, the effect of gender, luggage...

This paper deals with the train scheduling problem for metro networks taking into account time-dependent passenger origin–destination demands and train speed profiles. The aim is to adjust train schedules online according to time-dependent passenger demands so that passenger satisfaction and operational costs are jointly optimized. An...

When the braking energy in electric transportation grids is not met by another vehicle's demand, it is either harvested by storage systems or wasted in braking resistors. This paper looks at three methods for increasing the amount of harvested braking energy without the use of expensive storage systems: decreasing the substation voltage,...

Due to the continuous expansion of the urban scale, the urban metro transportation system also needs to be constantly updated, especially those cities that need to carry mega-events. Larger carrying capacity, better collaboration mode and more optimized operation mode are required to handle the sudden increase in travel demand. The ever-growing...

Public transport (PT) plays a vital role in commuting billions of travellers in cities all over the world, providing a mode that is both sustainable and accessible. Metro networks are especially apt at this considering their high-capacity and high-speed operation in urban environments. Comparing different metro networks to one another is a...

Many cities have introduced metro rail systems over the past two decades, particularly in developing countries. However, there is lack of knowledge on the impacts of new lines on the service and ridership for the related urban bus lines, and in particular those directly affected by the opening of the new service(s). We undertake a...

Metro-bikeshare integration, an important way of improving the efficiency of public transportation, has grown rapidly during the last decades in many countries. However, most previous analysis of metro-bikeshare transfer trips were based on limited sample size and the number of recognized metro-bikeshare trips were not sufficient. The primary...

Transit-oriented development (TOD), an urban planning concept that aims to promote sustainable transport modes, has been actively studied in recent years, especially in relation to car trips reduction. However, longitudinal studies on the matter are still rare. In this paper, we analyze the effects of the implementation of a new metro system...

Few studies have analyzed the mobility impacts of TOD using a longitudinal research approach, and even fewer incorporated origin–destination (OD) information in the analysis. In this paper, we examine the impacts of a metro system with TOD features on the share of car and bus trips using Metro do Porto as a case study. The application of an...

Many cities in the world have developed metro systems. Metro systems affect urban development in many ways, such as enhancing labour force mobility, increasing urban productivity and promoting urban underground space (UUS) utilisation to accommodate urban functions. This paper explores the relationship between metro systems and urban...

Street, as the fundamental infrastructure for circulation, access and connectivity,<br/>is the crucial public space that supports economic, social and cultural activities.<br/>Moreover, the identity and development of city would be influenced by the street. Since the street was taken as a unit of planning in the 16th century, it has been...

Although the metro is a very energy efficient option for passenger transportation compared to internal combustion vehicles, it is still a very prominent energy consumer. Further, due to the global pressure to reduce CO2 emissions, there is a worldwide demand for efficiency and sustainability improving solutions and approaches for railway...

With the increasing demand for public transport systems worldwide and also a lot of these systems running at their maximum capacity, there is a strong need for finding ways for these systems to operate in a more efficient way. In recent transportation research there is an increasing attention for operational conditions and the impact of...

From carriages to cars, from steam engine trains to HS trains, the modes of mobility has been changing through the time. Mobility as become more and more relevant to people’s daily life and also plays an important role in city planning. With the rapid development of mobility modes, more facilities are also needed to fulfill a complete...

Many public transport networks worldwide experience high crowding levels. Overcrowding can result in passengers not able to board the first arriving vehicle. We infer how waiting time induced by being denied boarding in crowded public transport systems is valued by passengers, based on observed passenger route choice behaviour. For this purpose,...

Public transport is one of the most disrupted sectors of the COVID-19 pandemic with reported ridership drops up to 90% in majorly affected countries. As many government authorities strive to partially resume activities, public transport operators are in an urgent need for models that can evaluate the impact of different social distancing...

Transit-oriented development has been widely studied in recent years as a means to reduce car trips and promote sustainable transport modes. However, longitudinal studies on the matter are still rare. This paper contributes to longitudinal research of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) effects on travel behavior by analyzing the evolution of...
