We focused on the Texas Triangle, which includes Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area. Using EV registration data, our study applied unsupervised machine learning techniques, specifically hierarchical clustering analysis, to identify distinct patterns of EV adoption. We conducted a longitudinal analysis to investigate changes in carmakers' market share and to understand EV adoption patterns over time. We used Anselin Local Moran's I analysis to profile the characteristics of Tesla owners. Our analysis results revealed significant market segmentation in the EV market, particularly between different sale price ranges and brands. Notably, Tesla emerged as a market leader with strong brand appeal in the mid to high price tiers. EV adoption has been spreading from the Texas Triangle. Clusters with overall high EV registration, as identified in Anselin Local Moran's I analysis, were more associated with high-income, highly educated communities, where residents own multiple vehicles and are predominantly White. This trend was also observed among Tesla owners in relative to low-tier EV adopters. The mismatch exists between the density of registered EVs and the availability of both public and Tesla charging stations, with a notable disparity between urban centers and outskirts. More importantly, we highlight the reluctance of disadvantaged groups to purchase EVs, regardless of price or brand, underscoring the need for policy interventions that address distributive fairness. Current federal incentives and local rebate programs should better serve disadvantaged communities to promote equitable EV adoption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47453,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Business and Management","volume":"57 ","pages":"Article 101225"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142441595","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}

Subway systems affect urban development in many aspects such as land use, travel behaviour, and service industries including tourism. Tourism nowadays makes a significant contribution to economic success and yields social benefits for cities and countries. Transport can have a considerable impact on tourists' experiences at destinations. In many cities, tourists comprise a considerable proportion of public transport users, especially during holiday periods, and subways, as a speedy, convenient, accessible, affordable, and comfortable travel choice, are used by many tourists. With an increasing number of cities with subway development (existing and planned), growing numbers of domestic and international tourist trips, and global interests in growing the tourism industry, it is time to investigate the relationship between subways and tourism to identify their contribution to tourism at destinations. This international overview explores tourism facilities and subway stations and networks, tourism-related architecture and design of subway stations, subway-related travel behaviour and perceptions of tourists, and subways and sustainable tourism. It confirms the close spatial relationship between subways and tourism facilities, the subway station's role as a new heritage frontier, the subway as the preferred transport mode of many tourists, and the opportunities and challenges that subways present to sustainable tourism.

Coopetition is a process whereby stakeholders collaborate horizontally with competitors in order to increase opportunities for all. The research in this paper is based on a case study methodology and identifies six coopetition activities which together address two objectives: improving resource utilization and navigating market dynamics. Resource utilization is improved by obtaining economies of scale and allowing short-term planning by rail asset sharing, as well as reducing costs by balancing flows and optimising empty container logistics. The overall market dynamics are improved by increasing awareness through joint marketing and lobbying, increasing volume in the network and system flexibility by optimising train schedules, and increasing capacity and quality of railway infrastructure via joint lobbying for infrastructure investment. Rail operators were found to be the stakeholder group most active in coopetition, while shippers faced internal management barriers to working with competitors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47453,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Business and Management","volume":"57 ","pages":"Article 101219"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142314192","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}

Significant differences between groups based on gender are identified, but not based on age, residential area, education, work, or income.
