  1. 1. Staying Afloat - Examining the Resilience of the European Inland Waterway Transportation Industry in the Face of Climate Related Disruptions: A Policy and Resilience Analysis

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Linnea Ahlgren; Hibaakh Jamac; [2023-07-03]
    Keywords : Climate Change; Inland Waterway Transportation; Inland Barge Companies; Inland Ports; Policies and Initiatives; Adaptation; Extreme Weather;

    Abstract : Due to its lower emissions in comparison to other modes of transport, inland waterway transportation (IWT) has been increasingly considered a sustainable option by the European Union (EU), prompting a focus on transitioning towards it in recent years. However, the impact of climate change has led to a rise in extreme weather events, including floods and droughts, over the past few decades. READ MORE

  3. 2. Low-latency transport protocols inactor systems : Performance evaluation of QUIC in Kompact

  5. 4. On the use of routing engines for dynamic travel time calculation within emergency vehicle transport simulation

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DVMT)

    Author : Marcus Juninger; Nicholas Narvell; [2023]
    Keywords : Emergency Vehicle Simulation; Routing Engines; Travel Time Calculation; Dynamic Data Generation;

    Abstract : Traditional methods for constructing simulation models can involve severalsteps that require manual pre-processing of large data sets. This process maybe time-consuming and prone to human errors, while also leading to modelsthat are inconvenient to customize for varying simulation scenarios. READ MORE

  6. 5. Inclusion of differential pricing in congestion charging scheme: The case of Stockholm and Curitiba

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Joaquin Franco; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among transport demand management (TDM) strategies, congestion pricing has been one of the most widely applied, but at the same time one of the most criticised. The reason is that this measure is considered regressive, exclusionary, and inequitable, since having a flat rate ignores people's ability to pay, i.e. READ MORE
