Facility Location-Network Design Problem: Reliability and Investment Budget Constraint
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The simultaneous consideration of combined facility location and network design is an attractive empirical topic for locating public and private facilities and for reducing transportation costs. Moreover, applying a reliable ... -
Analysis of the Mechanisms Contributing to Spatial Mismatch in Transitional Chinese Cities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The decades of economic boom have brought about intensive spatial transformation and restructuring since market-oriented reforms in China. Such spatial adjustments have generated the manifestation of spatial mismatch in ... -
The Cul-de-sac Effect: Relationship between Street Design and Residential Social Cohesion
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Recent debates in urban planning have centered on whether the cul-de-sac street form should be eliminated from the United States’ topography. Critics argue that these closed-off streets force residents into their automobiles, ... -
Modeling the Effects of Pro Bicycle Infrastructure and Policies Toward Sustainable Urban Mobility
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper aims to determine the potential of the bicycle as a sustainable mode of transport in a medium-sized Spanish city (Santander, in northern Spain) with strong inclines and relatively inclement weather. For this ... -
Experiment in Megaregional Road Pricing Using Advanced Commuter Behavior Analysis
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Worsening highway congestion is a challenge to megaregional competitiveness; changing regional geographies and development location decisions, among other factors, demand that public policy responses go beyond traditional ... -
Brownfield Development Selection Using Multiattribute Decision Making
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Brownfields are potential development opportunities for the communities in which these old industrial sites sit. The Western Pennsylvania Brownfields Center at Carnegie Mellon University has developed and tested a ... -
Expo 2010: Strategic Transformation of Former Industrial Areas by Means of International Events
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The transformation of former industrial areas is important to urban redevelopment, although such activity is often limited by possible on-site pollution, complicated ownership, and legal constraints. Rather than treating ... -
Bilevel Programming Model for Locating Park-and-Ride Facilities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper develops a bilevel programming model to locate park-and-ride (P&R) facilities with the capability of capturing the interactions between decision makers and commuters. The upper-level model represents the ... -
Using a GPS Data Set to Examine the Effects of the Built Environment along Commuting Routes on Travel Outcomes
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Although extensive research has investigated how the built environment near people’s homes and work places influence automobile travel behavior, little is known about how commuting routes affect travel outcomes. This article ... -
Choice-Based Modeling by Destination Value and Type of Planning for Domestic Leisure Travelers in India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Urban spaces are comprised of different locations that offer varying levels of attractiveness to users. The users may be the residents of the space itself or may travel from outside the space to visit the locations of ... -
Detecting the Characteristics of the Spatial Patterns of Trees Adjacent to Buildings within Changed Settlements of Farmers in Shanghai, China
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Urban sprawl has resulted in numerous land-lost farmers who must relocate from villages to residential quarters. The spatial landscapes of new homelands have profoundly changed, which is necessary for the succession of ... -
Extracting Urban Subzonal Land Uses through Morphological and Spatial Arrangement Analyses Using Geographic Data and Remotely Sensed Imagery
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Land use (LU) information is of significant value for various urban studies and is needed for a wide variety of decision-making initiatives in the range of global, regional, and urban areas. However, it has been difficult ... -
Design and Implementation of an Internet-Based Household Activity Scheduling Survey in Cairo, Egypt
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper reports on the design and implementation of an internet-based survey that focuses on household activity scheduling in Cairo, Egypt. The survey is referred to as Internet-based daily activity scheduling of household ... -
Multiple Classification Analysis for Trip Production Models Using Household Data: Case Study of Patna, India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Trip production models in India have traditionally been developed using simple regression analysis with population at census ward level as the independent variable. The current study developed multiple classification ... -
Community-Initiated Adaptive Reuse of Historic Buildings and Sustainable Development in the Inner City of Shanghai
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper explores a unique case of a community-initiated urban regeneration through the adaptive reuse of historic buildings in the Tianzifang district in Shanghai. The adaptive reuse of historic buildings has increasingly ... -
How to Have Sustainable Transportation without Making People Drive Less or Give Up Suburban Living
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Motorized automobility and suburban living are not only highly valued but are also associated with a range of serious social problems, including deaths and injuries of motor-vehicle users and nonusers, roadway congestion, ... -
