This volume analyses the relevance of daily travel in the quality of life of individuals. It provides a broad understanding of the links between life satisfaction, well-being and travel, the importance of commuting, and different evaluations and measures to assess the experience of commuting and quality of life. Chapters in this book relate travel and quality of life to the built environment, accessibility and exclusion, travel mode choice, travel satisfaction and emotions. It brings together distinguished researchers from a variety of academic backgrounds providing conceptualizations and applications, presented as case studies, for daily travel and well-being. Findings presented in this book are highly relevant for transport planners, transport marketers, public transport authorities, and environmental professionals in the pursuit of improving people’s life.
Panels for Transportation Planning argues that panels - repeated measurements on the same sets of households or individuals over time - can more effectively capture dynamic changes in travel behavior, and the factors which underlie these changes, than can conventional cross-sectional surveys. Because panels can collect information on household attributes, attitudes and perceptions, residential and employment choices, travel behavior and other variables - and then can collect information on changes in these variables over time - they help us to understand how and why people choose to travel as they do, and how and why these choices are likely to evolve in the future. This book is designed for...
This thoroughly revised second edition Handbook provides an authoritative and in-depth overview of choice modelling, covering essential topics range from data collection through model specification and estimation to analysis and use of results. It aptly emphasises the broad relevance of choice modelling when applied to a multitude of fields, including but not limited to transport, marketing, health and environmental economics.
This comprehensive handbook covers human mobility within urban contexts, integrating academic theories with pragmatic insights and offering a detailed analysis of the diverse facets of human mobility and its substantial impact on the urban landscape, economy, and societal structures. It explains key fundamental concepts, methods, and models, presenting an in-depth exploration of predictive analytics, clustering patterns, advanced trajectory embedding techniques, artificial intelligence, machine learning, geographic information systems (GIS), Internet of Things (IoT), and smart city innovations. The authors include many case studies and examples of urban mobility in practice, making the conte...
Transportation engineering and transportation planning are two sides of the same coin aiming at the design of an efficient infrastructure and service to meet the growing needs for accessibility and mobility. Many well-designed transport systems that meet these needs are based on a solid understanding of human behavior. Since transportation systems are the backbone connecting the vital parts of a city, in-depth understanding of human nature is essential to the planning, design, and operational analysis of transportation systems. With contributions by transportation experts from around the world, Transportation Systems Planning: Methods and Applications compiles engineering data and methods fo...

TRR no. 2014 includes 12 papers that explore the modeling of learning in route choice, the modeling of household vehicle transaction behavior, analysis of 28-day global positioning system panel survey, attitudes toward risk in discrete choice models, and defining sampling districts for household travel surveys, and day-to-day travel variability. This issue of the TRR also examines multimodal choice set generation, gender in time allocation, observed behavioral dynamics of baby boomers and regional travel demand models, trends in out-of-home and at-home activities, creating synthetic household populations, and population synthesis for microsimulating travel behavior.
