2. 1. Modelling and Simulating Demand-Responsive Transport

   Author : Sergei Dytckov; Jan A. Persson; Paul Davidsson; Erik Jenelius; Malmö universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; On-Demand Mobility; Demand Responsive Transport; Modelling and Simulation; Sustainability;

   Abstract : Public transport is an efficient way to transport large volumes of travellers. However, there are systemic issues that make it hard for conventional public transport to provide efficient service on finer levels, like first- and last-mile problems or low-demand areas. READ MORE

4. 2. Transport Efficiency: Analysing the Transport Service Triad

   Author : Victor Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; transport service; transport efficiency; activities; freight transport; transport service triad; triad; business relationships; actors; industrial network approach; resources;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with transport services and transport efficiency. There are growing environmental concerns for many industries and the freight transport industry in particular faces challenges in reducing its CO2 emissions. READ MORE

5. 3. Energy Efficient Vehicle Policy: Lessons Learnt : An analysis of the effects of incentive policies on the demand, usage and pricing of energy efficient vehicles

   Author : Jake Whitehead; Joel Franklin; Simon Washington; Anders Karlström; Jonas Eliasson; Bert van Wee; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Efficient Vehicle; Incentives; Policy; Demand; Usage; Pricing; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : Encouraging the uptake of energy efficient vehicles (EEVs) is an aspiration of critical importance in a day and age in which we are confronted with the increasingly dire consequences of human behaviour on our planet, and on the planet for generations to come. The transport sector is one of the highest contributors of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, whilst pollution from this sector is responsible for a large proportion of human deaths each and every year.

6. 4. Studies in Local Public Transport Demand

   Author : Johan Holmgren; Jan Owen Jansson; Lars Westin; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Public transport; Demand; Elasticity; Price; Service; Time series; Panel data; Kollektivtrafik; Efterfrågan; Elasticitet; Pris; Trafikutbud; Inkomst; Bilinnehav; Tidsserieanalys; Paneldata; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

   Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers where the overall purpose is to contribute to the understanding of how local public transport demand is affected by different factors. An underlying theme running trough the thesis is the two-way relationship between public transport demand and the service level caused by the fact that capacity and quality are joint products.

7. 5. Transport, Mobility, and Workplace Location : Models and Applications

   Author : Fatemeh Naqavi; Muriel Beser Hugosson; Nathalie Picard; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

   Abstract : Travel demand analysis is one of the core constituents of transportation studies. Therequired insight to maintain and develop a sustainable transportation system, in additionto learning from previous research globally and locally, is generated from studyingthe effects of previous policies, investigating future possibilities and potential outcomes,and describing the current situation.
