The survey was designed to target Incheon International Airport in South Korea and includes questions about WTP, socioeconomic attributes, airport-related behaviors, and experiences and opinions related to airport access and UAM. The questions for WTP were designed for specific fare scenarios, and a model was developed using a double-bounded dichotomous choice contingent valuation method to estimate WTP in the specific fare scenarios. A total of 1634 people responded to the survey, and its results were analyzed using a double-bounded dichotomous choice model to examine the effects of socioeconomic and airport-related factors on WTP. The modeling result shows an average WTP of 60,173 KRW (approximately 48 USD) and a median of 48,521 KRW (approximately 39 USD) per 30 min for the UAM airport shuttle service, indicating lower WTP compared to the suggested fares from various organizations. This highlights the need for feasible pricing in the early market to attract the public. Meanwhile, taxi users exhibited 97 % higher WTP probability compared to airport shuttle users, while private car drivers showed a 34 % increase. This is noteworthy in that UAM has the potential to replace ground taxis or be another transportation mode similar to taxis. Moreover, respondents aware of UAM technology demonstrated 19 % higher WTP, indicating the importance of promoting UAM to the public and making them perceive the substantial effects of UAM. The findings of this study provide important information to policymakers and industry stakeholders to devise effective pricing strategies and policies for the successful integration of UAM into current transportation systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47453,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Business and Management","volume":"62 ","pages":"Article 101444"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144489495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, previous research has primarily focused on urban users, with limited attention to gender-specific bike-sharing usage behavior within campus environments. Compared with urban environments, campus bike-sharing exhibits unique temporal and spatial patterns driven by class schedules, campus layout, and restricted usage zones, leading to more regular and concentrated travel behavior. Using origin-destination travel data from dockless bike-sharing system implemented on a large-scale university campus in Tianjin, China, this research examined the spatiotemporal differences in bike-sharing usage across genders. Then, the entropy rate method and machine learning models were employed to quantify bike-sharing usage regularity and identify influential factors affecting regularity, respectively. Results show that male users are 1.85 times more than females, double the ridership, and demonstrate higher regularity compared to females. Travel distance is similar between males and females, but males have faster riding speeds. Competitive relationship between genders is revealed, particularly during peak hours around student residence and academic building. Finally, policy implications are suggested to enhance the existing campus bike-sharing service and promote the equity between genders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47453,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Business and Management","volume":"62 ","pages":"Article 101445"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144330416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current state analysis revealed that catenary electric roads are a cost-minimising option to carriers, whereas future state analysis revealed that catenary electric roads and swapping can perform on par while being cost-advantageous vis-à-vis stationary charging. The sensitivity of these findings to battery parameters, electric road user charges, swapping fee levels and charging alliances was reported.

The results show that SCR, LC and ITA positively impact the financing availability of transport SMEs, while business performance plays a mediating role between SCR, LC, ITA and financing availability.

Automated ride-sharing services are expected to alleviate traffic congestion, reduce traffic emissions, and significantly improve road safety by combining advanced connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) technology with the ride and/or car-sharing concept. These benefits, however, are highly dependent on the deployment concept of the service and environment including network characteristics, CAV technology, traffic compositions, population acceptance, etc. This study aims to assess the mobility and environmental impacts of introducing a door-to-door automated ride-sharing (ARS) service under different deployment scenarios. Two calibrated and validated city-scale networks with different characteristics were used: a suburban area in the Greater Manchester (UK) and a city-centre area in Leicester (UK). An optimisation technique for the vehicle routing problem was developed to efficiently operate ARS at a network-level. The customers' preference for individual and shared rides with Willingness to Share (WTS) was investigated to gain a better understanding of the performance indicators (i.e., delay, travel time, speed, kilometres-driven and emissions) The introduction of ARS was investigated under two deployment scenarios: 1) mixed with conventional human-driven vehicles (HDVs) and 2) mixed with HDVs with varying CAV market penetration rates. Findings suggest that introducing ARS can adversely impact mobility and the environment under mixed traffic, especially in suburban areas, and the benefits of an automated ride-sharing system are highly dependent on WTS. The findings will assist local authorities in formulating automated ride-sharing policies to manage the traffic on roads.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47453,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Business and Management","volume":"62 ","pages":"Article 101434"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144306664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study fills this gap by exploring barriers in Indonesia's electronics industry and emphasizing the government's role in SCM 4.0, providing a detailed understanding of their impact on SCM 4.0 implementation in Indonesia's electronics industry. The findings offer valuable implications for academia by providing new insights about SCM 4.0 in Indonesia's electronics industry, for policymakers by highlighting the need for supportive regulations, and for industry stakeholders by identifying key barriers to effective SCM 4.0 implementation. The initial 21 barriers to SCM 4.0 implementation, derived from the previous study, are validated and ranked using the Delphi method. After the first round of Delphi survey, a barrier, lack of government incentive, is added, and the total of barriers included in the second round is 22 barriers. Based on the results of Delphi survey, 12 barriers are considered essential and further analyzed in the next step. Interpretive structural modeling - cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification (ISM-MICMAC) is then utilized to build the hierarchical relationship among the barriers and group them based on their driving power and dependence power. Lack of government regulation and supports and lack of government incentives are the most fundamental barriers, and they are categorized as independent barriers.

Key findings highlight actionable insights for decision-makers, e.g., prioritizing equipment upgrades or defining stricter maintenance schedules.
