"'Globalization', a commonly used word these days, is the reason of
changing global landscapes. Larger firms buy small, authentic
companies, the small companies that want to keep doing what they
do, and don't want to be bought by larger firms, struggle to
compete, eventually they disappear. My view on this phenomenon is
displayed in my first book 'Bus Stop'. For decades, sons and
daughters kept alive the bus company started by their mothers and
fathers. These past 2 years I travelled through Belgium to document
their activities, to feel the atmosphere on board and to show who
they are. What's evolving and what could be lost in a few years." -
Nick Claeskens. Text in English and Dutch.
Bei diesem Buch aus dem Jahre 1916 handelt es sich um ein
umfangreiches und detailliertes Standard-Nachschlagwerk, welches
sich mit der Charakteristik sowie Instandsetzung aller
Automobil-Motoren vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg befasst.
With the recent advancements and implementations of technology
within the global community, various regions of the world have
begun to transform. The idea of smart transportation and mobility
is a specific field that has been implemented among countless areas
around the world that are focused on intelligent and efficient
environments. Despite its strong influence and potential,
sustainable mobility still faces multiple demographic and
environmental challenges. New perspectives, improvements, and
solutions are needed in order to successfully apply efficient and
sustainable transportation within populated environments.
Implications of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in Urban and Rural
Environments: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a pivotal
reference source that provides vital research on recent
transportation improvements and the development of mobility systems
in populated regions. While highlighting topics such as
human-machine interaction, alternative vehicles, and sustainable
development, this publication explores competitive solutions for
transport efficiency as well as its impact on citizens' quality of
life. This book is ideally designed for researchers,
environmentalists, civil engineers, architects, policymakers,
strategists, academicians, and students seeking current research on
mobility advancements in urban and rural areas across the globe.
Because it deals with sustainably supplying cities and reducing
congestion and pollution related to goods transport in urban areas,
city logistics is an important field in transportation sciences.
These logistics systems need to be sustainable and reliable to
ensure the continued flow of goods. Logistics and Transport
Modeling in Urban Goods Movement is a pivotal reference source that
provides vital research on the main approaches and techniques used
in urban goods transport modelling while addressing planning and
management issues. Highlighting topics such as urban logistics,
vehicle routing, and greenhouse emissions, this book is ideally
designed for civil/transport engineers, planners, transport
economists, geographers, computer scientists, practitioners,
professionals, researchers, and students seeking current research
on urban goods modelling.
