Improving aircraft departure time predictability
… a forecasting model is described that improves departure predictions over those of Collaborative Decision Making (CDM), reducing error by up to 30% for a given day. This model propagates delay from incoming flights to outgoing flights by using minimum turn times calculated from Airline Service …

Mode and Departure Time Choice Behavior of Non-Work Related Trips
… choice behavior, while the second part analyzes departure time choice. A Random Regret-Minimization (RRM) approach is applied on stated preference data that was collected in Calgary, Canada. We study mode choice behavior by examining the impacts of various sustainable neighborhood design elements …

Modifying TRANSIMS (Transportation Analysis and Simulation) to Include Dynamic Value Pricing and Departure Time Choice
… toll (HOT) lane value pricing system with time-dependent tolls or dynamic tolls that change by the congestion level. However, there is a lack of proper travel demand forecasting tools that can evaluate and determine the impacts of pricing on travelers' decision in relation to congestion. …

Modeling preferences for innovative modes and services : a case study in Lisbon
… only the mode choices but also the choices of departure time and occupancy (in case of private modes). A multidimensional choice set of travel mode, departure time, and occupancy is considered. Two types of models are used to investigate the preferences and acceptability of innovative modes and …

Post-secondary Students' Travel Behavior through the Lens of Urban and Rural Contexts
… gaps in understanding how activity choices, departure time decisions, and active transportation behaviors are shaped by contextual, demographic, and policy factors. Two studies utilize the StudentMoveTO dataset, a detailed activity-travel diary survey from the Greater Toronto and Hamilton …

Mobile interface for mobility incentives schemes : FMS-Advisor
… routes, alongside differing mode options and departure time, and provided the proper incentive in the form of rewards, they will be willing to modify their plans in order to obtain them. Therefore, we have created an interface on Android where users can plans trips, view past trips, and earn …

In situ observation of the distribution and location of gliadin as a function of mixing time in wheat flour dough using quantum dots
… and location of gliadins as a function of mixing time in model wheat flour dough were investigated for the first time using confocal laser scanning microscopy. In this research we tagged gliadin proteins with Quantum Dots (QDs) to increase the clarity and specificity of imaging and then …

Essays on the economics of urban transportation
… collection in Bangalore, India. Commuters value time spent commuting highly and are moderately flexible to change departure time. However, welfare gains from optimal congestion pricing are predicted to be low, due primarily to a small road traffic externality. The second paper studies the impact …

Development of a dynamic traffic assignment system for short-term planning applications
… models travel behavior in terms of route choice, departure time choice and response to information. DynaMIT-P is particularly suited to evaluate Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS) and Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) at various levels of sophistication. The results of a case …

Theorizing and quantifying organizational and social factors in probabilistic risk assessment of complex systems
… building and validating an HRA-based Population Departure Time Model (PDTM), and integrating it with the transportation evacuation model to generate model-based Evacuation Time Estimates (ETEs) and evacuation speed estimates as inputs to Level 3 PRA model. This integrated methodology makes an …

Modeling and Assessing Crossing Elimination as a Strategy to Reduce Evacuee Travel Time
… given area. At the upper level, evacuees' travel time is minimized and at the lower level, traffic is assigned to the network with the traffic assignment-simulation software DynusT. The overall model is solved with a simulated annealing heuristic and applied to a real case study to assess the …

Scheduling algorithms for high-speed switches
… weight matching algorithms. Then, the shadow departure time algorithm (SDTA) and iterative SDTA (ISDTA) are introduced. The QoS features of SDTA and ISDTA are better than other existing algorithms with the same computational complexity. Simulations show that the performance of a VOQ switch …

A Comparative Analysis of Two Low-Acuity Flow Processes in the Emergency Department
… using "arrival to first provider contact time" and "arrival to departure time" as the dependent variables and RMA process versus FT process as well as ESI levels as the independent variables. There was a significant difference in the mean arrival to first provider contact times for all …

Commute Travel Changes and their Duration in Hurricane Sandy's Aftermath
… the trip to work, route changing, and modifying departure time. Transit commuters were more likely to change modes, cancel the trip, and depart earlier. Women were less likely to change modes or depart later. Carpool restrictions encouraged mode changing and earlier departures. Delays/crowding …

Integration of automated decision aids with a prototype air traffic control interface in support of time-based surface operations
… of spatiotemporal constraints on the departure sequence and a Timeline display providing a graphical presentation of a scripted release sequence based on an optimization algorithm. Results indicate that aircraft controlled in the TCV display condition had significantly less taxi delay …

Development of a combined activity scheduling model for tours
… problem. Modelled scheduling dimensions include: departure time, activity duration, activity sequence and route choice. The essential aspect of the model is based on the trade-off between the utility of participating in various activities, which contain time-of-day preference and satiation …

Employee lateness: Identifying correlates of lateness by applying the Steers and Rhodes Process Model of Attendance
… or arriving at work after the scheduled starting time. Therefore, a study of employee lateness, or tardiness, was conducted with a sample of 181 factory workers. This study utilized The Steers and Rhodes Process Model of Attendance (1978). Subject responses to a questionnaire provided information …

Overcoming loneliness: first-generation Slavic immigrants' experience with loneliness in the Inland Northwest
… significant findings showed how the context of departure, time of arrival, and ethnicity formed a Slavic-Christian identity and allowed its communities to flourish. Ultimately, Spokane’s first-generation Slavic immigrants were not significantly lonely and overcame loneliness using their strong …
