Optimizing bike network design: a cost-effective methodology for heterogeneous travel demands using continuous approximation techniques
(2023-10)
Article
Open AccessThis study presents a methodological framework for determining the most cost-effective design parameters for bike networks in cities with heterogenous travel demands. The suggested model utilizes continuous approximation ... -
Is entropy an indicator of port traffic predictability? The evidence from Chinese ports
(2023-02)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyHistorical time-series data of container traffic in ports are characterised by strong randomness that causes the time-series prediction performance to vary significantly. In this sense, the prediction accuracy differs as ... -

How network structure can boost and shape the demand for bus transit
(2017-09)
Article
Open AccessConventional wisdom states that transit riders are averse to transfers and that consequently bus networks should be designed to limit their number. Probably as a result of this belief, many real bus systems try to connect ... -
Assessment of aquaculture rafts exposure at river-borne substances using numerical modelling
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCoastal bays and estuaries with aquaculture activity may show spatial variability on the exposure at river-borne substances such as nutrients, pesticides or pollutants. In function of the relative geographical position of ... -
