(2022-01-06)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis study aims to investigate how the shareholders of leading European energy companies value sustainability narratives. It uses news from the Global Database of Events, Location, Language, and Tone (GDELT) and analyses ... -
Public transport strikes and their relationships with air pollution, mortality, and hospital admissions
(2020-02-28)
Article
Open AccessThere is limited suggestive evidence of relationships between public transport strikes and either increased air pollution or worse population health. In this study we aimed to assess whether public transport strikes were ... -

(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-07-14)
Article
Open AccessThe spread of the SARS-CoV-2 modeling is a challenging problem because of its complex nature and lack of information regarding certain aspects. In this paper, we explore a Digital Twin approach to model the pandemic situation ... -
The Camp Nou Stadium as a testbed for city physiology: a modular framework for urban digital twins
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2021-10-12)
Article
Open AccessIn this paper, the Camp Nou stadium is used as a testbed for City Physiology, a theoretical framework for urban digital twins. With this case study, the modularity and adaptability of the framework, originally intended for ... -
A mixed integer programming approach for multi-action planning for threat management
(2020-02-15)
Article

A city of cities: Measuring how 15-minutes urban accessibility shapes human mobility in Barcelona
(Public Library of Science (PLOS), 2021-05-05)
Article
Open AccessAs cities expand, human mobility has become a central focus of urban planning and policy making to make cities more inclusive and sustainable. Initiatives such as the “15-minutes city” have been put in place to shift the ... -
A new interior-point approach for large separable convex quadratic two-stage stochastic problems
(2020-11-03)
Article
Open AccessTwo-stage stochastic models give rise to very large optimization problems. Several approaches havebeen devised for efficiently solving them, including interior-point methods (IPMs). However, usingIPMs, the linking columns ... -
Investigating the quality of Spiess-like and SPSA approaches for dynamic OD matrix estimation
(2020-01-01)
Article
Open AccessSince OD matrices are not directly observable, indirect procedures have been developed to estimate OD matrices from traffic data. Traffic management must move toward dynamic traffic assignment models because they capture ...
