Better urban transport systems and the need for a healthier
environment are continuous requirements that create a fertile
atmosphere for original ideas, innovative approaches and
applications of advanced technologies, their tests and evaluations
in practice. Moreover, there is a growing need for integration with
IT systems and applications to improve safety and efficiency.
Meanwhile, the substantial growth of maritime shipping has resulted
in large transported quantities around the world, creating a demand
for innovative solutions for ports and fleets. The apparently
parallel topics of Urban Transport and Maritime Transport meet in
the transport and environmental management of coastal cities, both
being affected positively and negatively by landslide and seaside
traffic. Maritime Transport is highly interconnected with rail,
road and air services, as well as inland waterways. Each of these
must therefore operate complimentary of one another to maximise
efficiency and respond rapidly to variable economic and political
contingencies. The variety of topics covered in this volume
reflects the complex interaction of transport systems with their
environment and the need to establish integrated strategies. The
goal is to arrive at optimal socio-economic solutions while
reducing the negative environmental impacts of transportation
systems typically by interdisciplinary approaches.
