This study collected a detailed, extensive dataset comprising 25,640,666 records of real-world vehicle operating (speed, acceleration, etc.) and fuel consumption data alongside 124,938 hourly meteorological profiles (temperature, relative humidity, etc.). High-resolution fuel consumption rates (FCRs) based on ambient temperature were developed, and adjustment factors were introduced based on ambient temperature and vehicle specific power (VSP) binning. Fuel consumption factors (FCFs) were compared across different temperatures by incorporating VSP distributions and the adjusted FCRs, revealing larger FCFs at extreme temperatures compared to moderate ones. Fuel consumption inventories, both with and without temperature adjustments, were evaluated. The results indicated a 6% underestimation of annual fuel consumption in Beijing when disregarding temperature adjustments. The variation was observed across months (in July and August, underestimations can reach 11%) and across VSP bins (larger impact in low VSP bins). The relationship between FCR and ambient temperature is similar to a quadratic curve, with the lowest consumption occurring at 10 °C–20 °C. The FCF adjustment factor does not vary across speed intervals in cold weather and remains stable at approximately 1.15 at −10 °C, but it drops from 1.25 to 1 as speed increases from 5 to 100 km/h in hot weather. This study underscores the importance of considering ambient temperature in vehicle energy consumption modeling and the necessity of temperature-adjusted approaches for accurate fuel consumption estimations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 7","pages":"Pages 589-604"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142006397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Children rated their school routes to be significantly safer than their parents did. Furthermore, we found evidence for differences with regard to specific aspects: For example, parents’ (but not children’s) safety perceptions are enhanced by a higher proportion of streets with reduced speed limits. Given that parents who feel the school route is unsafe are less likely to allow their child to travel to school alone, traffic calming measures appear one measure suitable to accommodate their concerns. In contrast to traffic-related issues as the subjectively most prevalent hazard, our survey points toward single-person crashes as a more common case that may be rather underestimated by parents.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 6","pages":"Pages 465-477"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141108836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The block-group-level model showed that non-Hispanic Whites’ walking behavior was highly sensitive to the built environment. We also found positive impacts of worship accessibility on walking density, which might be unique to non-Hispanic White neighborhoods in SLCo. Built environment factors influenced Hispanics’ walking behavior less than that of non-Hispanic Whites, and the primary determinants included car ownership, driving license, and accessibility of public transit.

Findings indicate substantial correlations between an array of variables including adolescents’ age, ethnicity, mothers’ occupational and transport behaviors, the number of cars owned by the household, and the nature of residence (urban vs rural), with the adolescents’ active or public transport choice to school, consistently across both waves. As the primary focus of the study, a positive relationship between mothers’ non-transport pro-environmental behaviors and adolescents’ public transport to school is found, although the strength of this relationship declined over time. Importantly, more easily observable mothers’ non-transport pro-environmental behaviors holds a stronger strength of correlation with adolescents’ use of public transport to school, compared to maternal psychological factors like pro-environmental attitudes.

To improve accuracy for such stations, this study proposes a novel soft clustering algorithm for BSSs. The key idea is to allow stations to belong to multiple clusters, calculating the membership degree for each station based on transitions between stations and clusters obtained through hard clustering. This study also investigated the impact of restricting clusters to which individual stations belong based on distance or usage history. Two approaches, distance- and usage-based, were employed to determine the clusters to which each station belongs. Experimental results using Seoul Bike data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in enhancing traffic prediction accuracy within the hierarchical prediction framework.

Our goal is to characterize if and how bicycle theft changes individual bicycling behavior. We gathered responses from 1821 individuals in a survey focused on bicycle theft in North America. We employed bivariate analysis and binary logistic regression models to explore the relationships between demographic factors, bicycle attributes, and pre-theft behavior to explain post-theft bicycling behavior. The results show that 45% of survey respondents reduced or ceased bicycling post-theft, while 6% increased their bicycling. Additionally, 40% transitioned from bicycling to unsustainable modes of transportation for their post-theft trips. Also, 69% of people eventually replaced their stolen bicycles, of which 46% selected models of equal/higher value. Pre-theft bicycling activity emerged as the most influential factor on ridership behavior after a bicycle theft, with occasional riders experiencing the most negative impact, compared to frequent riders, who remained committed to bicycling. Recovery of the stolen bicycles, e-bicycle usage, number of bicycles owned, and income levels were also predictors of future bicycling patterns. The insights from this research can inform targeted interventions for populations most at risk to reduce the negative impact of bicycle theft, such as secure parking for new and low-income bicyclists.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 5","pages":"Pages 453-463"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140980682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The XAI techniques, specifically the Extreme Gradient Boosting algorithm with Shapely Additive Explanations, provide interpretable and understandable explanations of factors associated with AFV adoption in DACs. The study findings provide an understanding of the social and economic factors and challenges of DACs. The results suggest several key factors, especially a lack of access to charging infrastructure, consumer attitudes, and income, play a substantial role in adopting AFVs. As expected, AFV adoption in DACs (12.96%) is lower than non-DACs (15.30%). More public charging stations strongly correlate with AFV adoption in DACs. Tech-oriented households in DACs are more likely to adopt AFVs compared with non-DACs. The findings also point to the significant effects of home charging facilities while adopting AFVs in DACs. The XAI results emphasize the importance of socio-economic factors in AFV adoption programs and provide insights into decision-making in DACs. This research contributes to the literature on AFV adoption and suggests opportunities for improvements in DACs transitioning to AFVs.
