Advances in Human Aspects of Transportation
This book discusses the latest advances in the research and development, design, operation, and analysis of transportation systems, including road, rail, aviation, aerospace and maritime as well as their supporting systems and infrastructure. Focusing specifically on the contributions made by human factors and ergonomics, it analyses a wealth of topics, methods and technologies associated to accident analysis, automated and autonomous vehicles, assessment of comfort and distraction of drivers, and environmental concerns, giving emphasis to intelligent transport systems and driver-assistance systems, among other topics. Based on contributions to the AHFE 2021 Conference on Human Aspects of Transportation, held virtually on July 25-29, 2021, from USA, this book offers extensive information on the latest human factors and ergonomics thinking and practice in the area of transportation, and a thought-provoking guide to researchers, graduate students and professionals in this field.
Industrial Engineering in the Age of Business Intelligence
This book gathers extended versions of the best papers presented at the Global Joint Conference on Industrial Engineering and Its Application Areas (GJCIE), held virtually on October 30–31, 2021, from Istanbul Technical University. Continuing the tradition of previous volumes, it highlights recent developments of industrial engineering at the purpose of using and managing digital and intelligent technologies for application to a wide range of field, including manufacturing, healthcare, e-commerce and mobility.
Data Analytics and Machine Learning for Integrated Corridor Management
In an era defined by rapid urbanization and ever-increasing mobility demands, effective transportation management is paramount. This book takes readers on a journey through the intricate web of contemporary transportation systems, offering unparalleled insights into the strategies, technologies, and methodologies shaping the movement of people and goods in urban landscapes. From the fundamental principles of traffic signal dynamics to the cutting-edge applications of machine learning, each chapter of this comprehensive guide unveils essential aspects of modern transportation management systems. Chapter by chapter, readers are immersed in the complexities of traffic signal coordination, corri...
Cultural Heritage in the Arabian Peninsula
Heritage projects in the Arabian Peninsula are developing rapidly. Museums and heritage sites are symbols of shifting national identities, and a way of placing the Arabian Peninsula states on the international map. Global, i.e. Western, heritage standards and practices have been utilised for the rapid injection of heritage expertise in museum development and site management and for international recognition. The use of Western heritage models in the Arabian Peninsula inspires two key areas for research which this book examines: the obscuring of indigenous concepts and practices of heritage and expressions of cultural identity; and the tensions between local/community concepts of heritage and identity and the new national identities being constructed through museums and heritage sites at a state level.
International Encyclopedia of Transportation
In an increasingly globalised world, despite reductions in costs and time, transportation has become even more important as a facilitator of economic and human interaction; this is reflected in technical advances in transportation systems, increasing interest in how transportation interacts with society and the need to provide novel approaches to understanding its impacts. This has become particularly acute with the impact that Covid-19 has had on transportation across the world, at local, national and international levels. Encyclopedia of Transportation, Seven Volume Set - containing almost 600 articles - brings a cross-cutting and integrated approach to all aspects of transportation from a...

RE-MIXING THE CITY - Towards Sustainability and Resilience? There is nothing permanent except change. (Heraclitus) Cities worldwide are facing rapid social, economic, environmental, technological and cultural changes such as: rapid urbanisation, aging of society, security issues, housing emergency, new solutions on mobility, integration of immigrants, food and water shortage, etc. Especially in times of economic crisis and demographic changes in cities, it is necessary to think about how to best handle what we have, and therefore "RE-MIXING THE CITY" is a challenge to manage and re-combine the elements which make our modern cities in order to better respond to change.
Intelligent Engineering Systems Through Artificial Neural Networks
As a follow-up to the previous four volumes of Intelligent Engineering Systems Through Artificial Neural Networks by the same editor, the present volume contains the edited versions of the technical presentations of ANNIE '95, held November, 1995 in St. Louis, Missouri. The 160-some contributions are grouped into six categories: artificial neural network architectures (including subsections on architectures and learning algorithms and training); fuzzy neural networks and systems; evolutionary programming; pattern recognition; adaptive control; and smart engineering system design (including bio-medical engineering systems; signal processing; forecasting; environmental applications; machining and robotics; process control, monitoring, and automated inspection; and general engineering). Includes bandw photographs, diagrams, and charts. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Robotics for Challenging Environments
Comprises 45 proceedings papers from the June 1996 conference which brought together researchers in robotic technology with professionals seeking innovative solutions to working in challenging environments. The presentations discuss both supporting technologies and application areas, covering topics in path planning, operator interfaces, robot control, space robot applications and standards, robotic excavation, safety in nuclear facilities, mobile systems, and education applications. Includes illustrations. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
