The encyclopedic views of S. Yu. Witte may be of interest both to economists and to sociologists, philosophers, scientists, and specialists in the theory of public administration. Many of S. Yu. Witte’s judgments have not lost their scientific, theoretical and practical significance to this day and in this sense turned out to be prophetic.The methodology for constructing prices for transportation of goods, set out by S. Yu. Witte is not only of historical interest (especially in conjunction with the reviews and discussions that accompanied the appearance of his book), but remains important for the modern solution of newly arising issues of improving the tariff system under market transition.

The configuration of the network structure of supply chains in this case becomes more complex following the increase in the number of participants and the diversity of technical and technological parameters of transport systems. The authors have analysed the problems of using piggyback technology as part of supply chains.The objective of this study is to establish a set of universal characteristics of piggyback systems that determine their sustainability in supply chains. The study used a systems approach to present piggyback technology as to a complex technical system, the main elements of which are intermodal transport units, railway rolling stock and terminals connected by the technology and organisation of piggyback transportation. A developed original system of criteria for choosing a piggyback system considers the current trend in development of transport systems and supply chains from the perspective of their sustainable development.It is shown that the decision to use piggyback systems as part of sustainable supply chains must be made based on amulti-criteria assessment of the parameters of all elements and relationships within these systems. The system of criteria developed by the authors allows adequate evaluating piggyback systems, coordinate their engineering and technological parameters, and also justify decisions on unification of intermodal transport units.","PeriodicalId":121504,"journal":{"name":"World of Transport and Transportation","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140686924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the end of 2022, the Department of Insurance and Social Economics of the Financial University, as part of the ongoing applied research work, conducted a market study of service stations and car repair shops, which helped to identify the main problems that have arisen and prospects for development of repair practices commissioned by insurance companies. The main hypothesis of the study was that due to a significant change in the timing of repairs, the attitude of car owners to the use of remanufactured and aftermarket spare parts has also changed, which necessitated a change in the operating practices of Russian service stations and car repair shops, as well as in their development strategy for the short and medium term.The problematic issues identified during the study comprise: a change in attitude towards the use of remanufactured and aftermarket spare parts, an increase in repair time. The article gives a consumer assessment of the impact of these factors on the quality of repairs. The quality of recycled spare parts, if the replacement of the part does not affect the safe operation of the car, is assessed by most unauthorised services stations as acceptable. At the same time, car service customers are ready to downgrade the category of spare parts to speed up repairs or reduce the price of repairs. The decision is influenced by the age of the car and the likelihood of receiving a discount or a reduction in the repair time.","PeriodicalId":121504,"journal":{"name":"World of Transport and Transportation","volume":" 46","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140687543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to reveal a quantitative criterion for emergence and evolution of traffic congestion based on a deterministic estimate of time of movement of individual vehicles in the general flow between control boundaries as a random variable of mean value, mode, median, standard deviation, variation indicators, asymmetry, and kurtosis.The subject of the study related to the patterns of evolution of the listed deterministic indicators of traffic flows, which can be used for operational forecasting of formation, development, and elimination of traffic congestion. The initial data were obtained using hardware and software systems for fixing traffic violations installed on the urban street-and-road network. As a result of the study, it was found that for the same section of the road, the listed deterministic indicators of a random variable differ significantly during free movement of road transport and in case of a traffic jam. It seems promising to use the average value of duration of movement of cars to identify the stages of emergence, development, and disappearance (liquidation) of traffic congestion. The proposed indicator can serve as a basis for developing a mechanism for real-time assessment of the likelihood of emergence of traffic jams, as well as for developing recommendations for the rapid response of transport services to prevent and eliminate them.","PeriodicalId":121504,"journal":{"name":"World of Transport and Transportation","volume":" 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140686861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The organisation of regular transportation is based on medium- and long-term planning of number of transported passengers, which is not applicable to irregular transportation.Determining the optimal layout of a passenger train, the number of main types of sleeping cars (with compartments and reserved seats without compartments) is one of the key tasks in organising railway passenger transportation, including irregular one.One of the promising improvements in development of longdistance railway passenger transportation is unification of passenger trains, which makes it possible to organise a comprehensive rotation of trains, thereby reducing non-operational downtime and increasing the efficiency of using rolling stock.Studies to assess the optimal composition of a long-distance train were carried out for regular railway transportation. However, considering several features of irregular passenger transportation, such as short-term planning of the volumes, high differentiation in the number of groups of passengers, a possibility of using free seats on trains on existing routes, it is necessary to re-evaluate the effectiveness of using unified passenger train composition schemes under these conditions.The development of standard compositions of passenger trains is carried out using the cluster analysis method. The use of three unified compositions is proposed. When developing proposals for unifying the layouts of passenger trains in circulation, it is necessary to consider the additional passenger traffic in irregular transportation, which cannot be absorbed using the remaining free seats. The results of the study were applied to a fragment of the North-Eastern part of railway network.","PeriodicalId":121504,"journal":{"name":"World of Transport and Transportation","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140687108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
