Multiobjective Strategic Evaluation for Urban Development in Kaohsiung, Taiwan: Case Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Due to the fact that manufacturing industries are moving further and further away, the separation of port and city plans, and consequently the competitiveness of Kaohsiung, compared to Hong Kong and Shanghai, is declining. ... -
Temporal Variation in Consumer Spatial Behavior in Shopping Streets
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Modeling consumer behavior in shopping streets to support urban planning decisions has a long tradition in a variety of disciplines. Surprisingly, temporal variation in such a shopping process has received only scant ... -
Discrete Choice Model for Defining a Parking-Fee Policy on Island of Ortigia, Siracusa
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)The island of Ortigia is a small extremity of the urban fabric of the city of Siracusa, located in the eastern part of Sicily. The island forms part of the historic city center and is characterized by its own particular ... -
Developing Integrated Schedules for Urban Rail and Feeder Bus Operation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)This paper discusses a model for developing optimal integrated schedules for urban rail and feeder bus operation. It consists of two parts: train scheduling submodel and schedule coordination submodel, which are formulated ... -
Sustainable Urban Transportation: Concepts, Policies, and Methodologies
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006) -
Parking, People, and Cities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2005)In this study of how off-street parking requirements affect urban form, we begin by analyzing the relationship between population density and streets in cities. We find that denser cities devote a greater share of their ... -

Supply Chain Analysis and Modeling for the Manufactured Housing Industry
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)In today’s competitive environment, managing the entire supply chain becomes a key factor for the successful business. However, the manufactured housing (MH) industry has mainly focused on manufacturing and quality ... -
Development of a Methodology to Predict Through-Trip Rates for Small Communities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)This paper examines a new methodology to predict external trip exchanges in small urban communities. The paper documents a study performed on several small communities in Alabama and includes a video surveillance data ... -
Considering the Environment in Transportation Planning: Review of Emerging Paradigms and Practice in the United States
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Several state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) in the United States are considering environmental issues in the early stages of the transportation planning process, ... -
Comparing High and Low Residential Density: Life-Cycle Analysis of Energy Use and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)This study provides an empirical assessment of energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with high and low residential development. Three major elements of urban development are considered: construction ... -
Sidewalk Planning and Policies in Small Cities

Shifts in Activity Centers along the Corridor of the Blue Subway Line in Taipei
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Activity centers are areas of strong development of a particular activity, such as residence, employment, or recreation. Understanding shifts in activity centers can help in creating development strategies for subway ... -
Determining the Desired Amount of Parking Using Game Theory
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)The problem of seeking an optimal parking policy is formulated here as a Stackelberg game between the government and the travelers. The government wishes to encourage transit ridership while keeping a strong urban center; ... -
Case Study: Design and Operation of Sustainable Urban Infiltration Ponds Treating Storm Runoff
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Combined wetlands and infiltration ponds are cost-effective ‘end of pipe’ drainage solutions that can be applied for local source control as part of urban development and regeneration. The aims of this case study were to ... -
Urban Origins/Destinations from High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)High-resolution remote sensing (RS) image data were used to identify commercial and industrial (C&I) origins and destinations (O/D). Imperviousness, derived from a RS-based land cover classification, is utilized as a ... -
Entropy Models of Trip Distribution
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)Entropy maximization approach has been widely used in transportation planning. It provides theoretical basis for a class of forecast models on traffic demand. In this paper, the concept of entropy from information theory ... -
Designing the Walkable City
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2005)With federal policy beginning to shift from auto-centric planning, provision for pedestrian and bicycle access is now mandated in federally supported projects. However, the field of transportation planning has little in ... -
Relationship between Housing Affordability and Economic Development in Mainland China—Case of Shanghai
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)The transformation of the planned housing provision as an in-kind welfare benefit to a market-oriented housing allocation system is the ultimate goal of the urban housing reform in China. The main concern of the housing ...
