   Author : Nitish Shetye; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Steel is one of the most important engineering and construction material. It is used everywhere around us from making tiny nuts and bolts to massive cargo ships. It is a basic component in building societies and the development of mankind. The demand of steel is influenced by the population of the world and the per-capita consumption. READ MORE

5. 4. Cargo Cycles in Urban Freight Transport : Obstacles and facilitating factors for utilising cargo cycles in urban freight transport in Stockholm, Sweden

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

   Author : Jan Lasovský; [2019]
   Keywords : cargo cycle; cargo bike; sustainable urban freight transport; last-mile logistics; space-efficient logistics; Stockholm; path dependence;

   Abstract : Cargo cycles can play a considerable role in mitigating the negative impacts of urban freight transport while still ensure that the material needs of the city are fulfilled. Their small size, lower operating costs, smaller carbon footprint, lack of tailpipe emissions, and manoeuvrability in congested areas are considerable advantages over traditional urban freight vehicles.
