  1. 11. Exploring societal impacts of self-driving public transport using four-step transport models

    Author : Erik Almlöf; Mikael Nybacka; Erik Jenelius; Mia Hesselgren; Clas Rydergren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Self-driving vehicles; Public transport; Four-step transport model; Societal impacts; Sampers; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : During the last decade, self-driving technology has become increasingly visible in the news, with the vision that people would enter vehicles that drive themselves, and that people could instead rest, read the newspaper, or have a meeting. However, these visions have mainly focused on the potential for car usage, even though public transport could benefit greatly from self-driving technology. READ MORE

  2. 12. Management of the procurement of transport services to reduce CO2 emissions

    Author : Javad Ghaneimoghaddam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Logistics; Transport performance; Transport provider; Shipper; Climate; Transport procurement; CO2 emissions;

    Abstract : It is important for shippers to purposefully manage the procurement of transport services internally (inward) and in relation to their transport providers and customers (outward) to reduce CO2 emissions. Further, contextual factors’ influence on the procurement of transport services needs to be understood to reduce CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  3. 13. Satisfaction with Public Transport Trips

    Author : Roberto Fernandez Abenoza; Yusak Octavius Susilo; Oded Cats; Sigal Kaplan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; customer satisfaction; public transport; three-factor theory; accessibility; built-environment; weather; door-to-door trips; firs and last-mile; market segmentation; geographical variations; service quality; safety perceptions; temporal variations; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Continuous urban growth, environmental issues, competition for limited space, longer commuting distances as well as the need to promote equity and equality in society are the primary reasons that make the improvement of public transport (PT) services a key policy area in many countries across the globe. Travel satisfaction measures the perceived quality of the PT service and it is an important aspect that operators and PT authorities need to consider when improving the service offered. READ MORE

  4. 14. The Hepatobiliary Transport of Rosuvastatin In Vivo

    Author : Ebba Bergman; Hans Lennernäs; Ulf Bondesson; Jack Cook; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rosuvastatin; Biliary excretion; Transport inhibition; Pharmacokinetics; Drug-drug interactions; Hepatobiliary transport; Organic anion transporting polypeptide; OATP; Statins; Gemfibrozil; Cyclosporine; Imatinib; Rifampicin; Canalicular transport; Sinusoidal transport; Hepatic uptake; Hepatic extraction; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; Biopharmaceutics; biofarmaci;

    Abstract : In vivo studies of hepatobiliary disposition are challenging. The hepatobiliary system is complex, as its physiological localization, complex cellular structure with numerous transporters and enzymes, and the interindividual variability in protein expression and biliary flow will all affect the in vivo disposition of a drug under investigation.
