Transport systems are facing an impossible dilemma: satisfy an
increasing demand for mobility of people and goods, while
decreasing their fossil-energy requirements and preserving the
environment. Additionally, transport has an opportunity to evolve
in a changing world, with new services, technologies but also new
requirements (fast delivery, reliability, improved accessibility).
In this book, recent research works are reported around the
triptych: "transport, energy and environment", which demonstrates
that vehicle technologies and fuels can still improve, but it is
necessary to prepare their implementation (e.g. electro-mobility),
to think of new services, and to involve all actors, particularly
enterprises, who will be the drivers of innovation. Mitigation
strategies are studied to promote innovative, multimodal and clean
transports and services. Research progress is reported on air
pollution, vibrations and noise, their mitigation and assessment
methodologies.

begins to leash an attack on a small town. As the stakes begin to
rise, so does the stunning truth, that not even Lauren can imagine.
