To drive, or not to drive: Mode choice in daily commute
Mode choice for daily commute refers to the process whereby commuters choose a travel mode for their daily trips to work. Despite its ordinary nature, it often involves a series of decisions and consideration of various factors and barriers. More research is needed to understand the various aspects …

Time-optimal path planning in uncertain flow fields using stochastic dynamically orthogonal level set equations
… self-driving cars to flying drones, and to our daily commute to work. Path-planning for autonomous underwater vehicles presents an interesting problem: the ocean flow is dynamic and unsteady. Additionally, we may not have perfect knowledge of the ocean flow. Our goal is to develop a rigorous and …

Dynamic, personalized discrete choice incentive allocation to optimize system performance
… to incentivize users to make energy efficient daily commute choices. The final model incorporates user personalized incentives and opportunity cost of each incentive to achieve the optimal incentive allocation on an ad-hoc basis.

The Missed Connections: An Architecture of Identity
… the street and the one sitting next to us on our daily commute. Perplexingly, the most overlooked of all missed connections exist within the very buildings we inhabit on a daily basis. At this human scale, an inexplicit absence of the anthropogenic identity has become rooted by the …

Narrative Structures: The Creation of Meaning Through Reference and Collage in Architecture
… journey is often lost in the monotony of the daily commute and through preoccupation with the destination. Public transportation can be a passive affair, and the nature of transportation can render the travelers personally idle despite the physical movement. This reveals an opportunity to …

Design and development of a custom dual fuel (hydrogen and gasoline) power system for an extended range electric vehicle architecture
… battery pack, can provide the users with a daily commute range of ~ 65 [km] relying solely on the battery’s electric power, whereas for longer duration trips the use of the on-board generator would be necessary. The developed Dual-Fuel E-REV power generation system offers the following …

Efficient and Equitable Travel Demand Management Using Price and Quantity Controls
… are demonstrated via microsimulation in a daily commute context between a single origin-destination pair. The simulation experiments employ a day-to-day assignment framework wherein transportation demand is modeled using a logit-mixture model with the nonlinear income effects and supply is …

Estimating schoolchildren's pollutant dose of NO₂ while walking to school in Auckland using GIS-based spatial analysis and land use regression model
… estimate schoolchildren's exposure during their daily commutes from home to school that comprises the main exposure in their daily routine. However, this estimation is still challenging at population scales because of the difficulty in predicting the local variation of air pollutants and …
