The Movingo integrated ticket: seamless connections across the mälardalen region of Sweden

ABSTRACT

The need for improved public transport (PT) ticketing in ever-growing deregulated PT markets has made well-designed integrated ticketing systems a priority area of intervention for PT service providers around the world. Yet, very little practical evidence of its impacts are reported in Sweden and in the world at large. The focus of this study was the impacts of the Movingo integrated ticketing scheme in terms of PT patronage, user satisfaction and the perceived quality of the ticketing set-up. Three travel surveys were conducted along the Stockholm-Uppsala route. Methods including logistic regression and correlated t-tests were used to analyse the samples. The findings suggest that the scheme made rail commuting more attractive resulting in an overall increase of about 24% in ticket sales with 3% – 15% car commuters reporting that they patronised PT services after the project. The scheme also resulted in increased rail commuter satisfaction. The overall perceived quality of the ticketing set-up did not however improve due to interoperability challenges. Service providers’ uncertainty about equitable distribution of revenue among the participating service providers, interoperability challenges and the lack of interest among most of the participating service providers to sell Movingo tickets are some issues to be addressed.     

单折线体外索对简支钢梁自振频率的影响

结构的自振特性关系到结构的健康安全,预应力系统作用到结构上会影响结构的自振频率.为考察体外预应力索系统对简支钢梁自振频率的影响,基于预应力系统作用机理并采用能量法建立了单折线布索型预应力钢梁的动力方程,求解此方程得到自振频率的计算公式,用此公式对一典型单折线索钢梁的一阶频率进行了计算,并与有限元模拟结果进行对比.结果表明:公式计算结果与有限元模拟结果基本一致,可用于工程设计.在此基础上,还得到了索预拉力、偏心距和截面积对梁自振频率的影响规律,为调节单折线布索型预应力钢梁的自振频率提供了理论依据.

Do supra-modal traveller types exist? A travel behaviour market segmentation using Goal framing theory

Travel behaviour market segmentations have become a popular method of identifying different types of car users, bicyclists or public transport users. However, while previous studies have looked at different types of users within single modes, such as the car, little research has explored the existence of traveller types transcending modes. The study presented here is an extension of an earlier segmentation study that distinguished travellers based on their individual preferences, yet did so independent of their current mode choice. The data came from a travel survey at a middle-sized UK university and were analysed using a combination of hierarchical and iterative partitioning methods. Crucially, however, the current study uses a different theoretical framework to previous segmentation research—goal framing theory—which may more adequately explain the findings than models used in the past such as the theory of planned behaviour. The findings supported earlier work, suggesting the presence of seemingly stable traveller types that cut across modes and can be distinguished based on gain, hedonic and normative goals. This has important implications for policies aimed at encouraging mode change which may have been too preoccupied with changing people’s attitudes rather than paying attention to people’s underlying travel preferences.

     

货车篷布运用管理若干问题的研究

面临铁路实现跨越式发展及第五次大面积提速，为确保运行安全，牵动了铁路的各项基础设施、机具运用、运输管理的“提质提标”。当然，也势必辐射到篷布的运用质量和安全管理工作。然而，就目前篷布运用管理状况，无论是技术条件、管理模式，还是工作环境、作业标准，已亟不适应“提速”的技术、安全和管理的要求。因此，面对铁路发展的宏观要求，务必从科学管理的思想方法上，研讨篷布运用管理滞后于“提速”发展的问题。

Transit assignment under crowded conditions

This paper presents a transit assignment algorithm for crowded networks. Both congestion in vehicles and queuing at stations are explicitly taken into account in predicting passenger flows for a fixed pattern of origin-destination trip demands. The overflow effects due to insufficient capacity of transit lines are considered to be concentrated at transit stations, while the in-vehicle congestion effects (or discomforts) are considered to be dependent on in-vehicle passenger volume. Overflow delay at a transit station is dependent on the number of excess passengers required to wait for the next transit car. We use a logit model to determine the split between passengers that chose to wait for the next transit car and passengers that chose to board on the alternative transit lines. The proposed algorithm predicts how passenger will choose their optimal routes under both queuing and crowded conditions.
