The existing investment and financing system of expressway in China determines that a state-owned expressway company is under special status in the market. The state-owned expressway company bears special social responsibilities and the key for the company to fulfill its social and economic responsibilities is the pricing. In the game of deciding the toll rate of expressway, the expressway company...
The research on taxi passengers traffic mode choice behavior plays an important role in exploring taxi passengers travel demand and offering drivers and vehicles accordingly. This study simulates the process of taxi passengers traffic mode choice which is based on the various influential factors. First, the research develops the traffic mode choice model based on the disaggregate method. Second, it...
Transport is a basic industry of the national economy, and is very important for a country to improve economic efficiency and quality. Since reform and opening up, Chinas railways, highways, aviation, water-transport and pipeline transport infrastructure achievements were obvious to all, and initially formed a comprehensive transportation network, but its development is uneven and the transport structure...
Based on the analysis of current financing pattern, this paper claims using the integration of railway industries capital with financial capital to solve railway industrys financing problem. In order to test the influence of the integration of the two kinds of capital on railway industrys financial status, this paper constructs the capital integration model and uses the model to predict the financial...
As an important branch of waterway transportation of China, the inland river transportation is playing a more and more important role in the social development and the growth of the national economy. Based on the analysis on the overall development level of inland port of China, a two-level indicator evaluation system for inland port competitiveness is established, and the weight of the indicators...
It is important to validate the train movement simulation model according to the reality. Inaccuracy of train grade resistance model is confirmed to be the important reason of the error by some experiments. With a lot of research on the impact of track layout to the calculation error of train grade resistance, some results have been obtained in this paper. First, calculation error of train grade resistance...
The highway construction in Tibet should take local building materials as the main material because of the poor transportation and bad climate. The resources of natural gravel stone used in highway construction are plentiful in Tibet. If asphalt pavement adopts graded gravel stone flexible base course, it can increase the performance of road and decrease construction cost compared with traditional...
With the fast development of economy and society in the past two decades, roadway system of China has undergone rapid development. In spite of this, the rapid increase of traffic demand has led to more and more serious problems of traffic safety and congestion. With the coming of global financial crisis, people are forced to ponder the basic factors, which underlie the sustainable development of economy...
To study the relationship between the vehicle speed and the cyclist injuries, simulation collisions of vehicle to electric-bicycle were performed using PC-Crash. The collisions were classified into rear-end collision, 45-degree head on collision, side collision with stopped electric-bicycle and moving electric-bicycle. Based on the collision procedure and the kinematics response of the cyclist in...
Determining the scope and area of traffic impact is one of the most crucial steps for Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). The paper first describes the result of a study on the qualitative and quantitative analysis methods which the engineering community commonly employs for determining the impact scope of projects at home and abroad. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods are analyzed. Then...
Adaptability analysis is an important link in urban rail transit network planning. Not only the static adaptability of the existing network to surrounding environments but also the dynamic adaptability of the existing network to future network change is required to be analyzed in the planning. In this paper, based on an analysis of adaptability research status at home and abroad, dynamic adaptability...
Congestion of motorway is a serious problem, causing inefficient road usage, increased cost of transport and more intense CO2 emission. The worldwide economic crisis has somewhat lessons the congestion problem locally, but still there is an urge to develop methodologies to effectively reduce congestion. In this paper, we propose a new concept of departure time slot allocation to analyze road transport...
Scientific and accurate transportation volume prediction for freight corridor is one of the essential works of transport network planning, which masters the corridors development, trend, characteristic, raw and quantity. The traditional prediction method of freight volume includes exponential smoothing model, regression Prediction, GM (1, 1) model and combined model. This paper explores the procedures...
This article introduces the concept of integrated transport joint hub system, the present stage of china and joint hub system administration mechanism. In the comprehensive transport network of railway, highway, airline, waterway etc., joint hub is what we call access network which is composed of different transport ways hub, link-line and urban road to meet the transfers need. Take comprehensive...
The global economic crises have started to filter through the world shipping market, and freight rates for the dry bulk sector have been in plummeting decline. On demand side is the shrinking demand, while, on the supply side, many carriers are in dire financial straits as there are scores of new ships heading for delivery. In this paper, we give our explanation for the features of the dry bulk market...
The locations and distances of pedestrian crosswalks can influence the operational efficiencies of vehicles and pedestrians. Based on 4 conflict scenarios of pedestrian-vehicle system with two crosswalks, the rules of pedestrian flows calculating at crosswalk and getting through or yielding at conflict area are proposed, with distance of two crosswalks as independent variables, pedestrian delay model...
Using the method of system dynamics under urban transportation system theory implementation, this paper studies the impact factors of contribution rate of urban public transportation—bus, rail transit, and taxi and their corresponding coupling relationship. Four factors are defined, namely, safety factor, convenience factor, comfort factor, and cost factor, to analyze the influence on each mode of...
In this paper, customer value is introduced to railway passenger transportation for the first time. The paper studied the relationship between customer value and competitive advantage quantificationally and develops the customer value exploration and measurement scale—PCVAL, which is tested to have good reliability and applicability. The scale provides an effective method for Passenger Dedicated Line...
Market regulation is an indispensable means of maintaining order of market economy. This paper first discusses the regulatory pattern of market, analyses the main body supervision of Chinas highway market, and discusses the subject, object, basis, scope, means of the current market supervision of Chinas highway and so on, further proposes the regulatory mechanism in line with the developing law of...
