Wheels to Wings Transport Revolution

Road Safety for Practitioners offers a clear and applied overview of essential road safety topics designed for professionals involved in road safety promotion, training, and implementation. This manual bridges gaps in existing literature by providing an accessible yet rigorous perspective on the causes, consequences, and prevention of road crashes, along with insights into new vehicle technologies and sustainability concerns. The book comprehensively covers decision-making processes, vulnerable road users, risk factors such as distractions and fatigue, vehicle safety systems, ecological driving, and emergency response. Its detailed table of contents addresses both foundational knowledge and emerging challenges, including advanced driver assistance systems, propulsion technologies, and future policy outlooks, making it a valuable tool for practitioners seeking a broad yet practical understanding. This resource benefits transport planners, policymakers, traffic instructors, road safety consultants, law enforcement officials, mobility analysts, and industrial stakeholders integrating safety training. Additionally, it serves researchers in road safety fields. Written in accessible language without requiring prior specialization, it supports effective application and dissemination of road safety knowledge across diverse contexts.

Managing Aviation Operations

Airports are dynamic infrastructure assets and organisations, which are subject to constant change as a result of increasing traffic, ownership changes, environmental, economic, safety and technological changes. Customers (airlines, passengers and freight organisations) and stakeholders (government, community) also put pressure on airports to change.This book examines the pressures to change faced by airports of different sizes, from small community airports to intercontinental mega-hubs, and will help readers to understand and anticipate the changes which will happen at airports with which they are involved. The objective of this book is to look at the broad value chain of airports and the roles of the various players within the value chain, examining how airports can manage their staff, stakeholders and customers, the ways in which governance and staffing models can be evolved to cope with the emerging challenges faced by the industry, and risks faced by airports, together with mitigation approaches. Each chapter ends with a series of questions which can be applied when considering a specific airport. The key target users of those questions are board members and investors, who need to grill management to ensure that they fully understand and appreciate the airport under consideration, but the questions will also be useful prompts for any reader of the book.This book has, therefore, been written for the person who is starting to work in or for the airport industry - as an airport employee, a board member, a regulator, a supplier of equipment or services to airports, an investor in airports, anyone engaged in non-aviation work such as airport retail or property development, or an airline staff member who has to deal with airports as a user.

Mobility Patterns, Big Data and Transport Analytics: Tools and Applications for Modeling, Second Edition provides a guide to the new analytical framework and its relation to big data, focusing on capturing, predicting, visualizing, and controlling mobility patterns-a key aspect of transportation modeling. The book features prominent international experts who provide overviews on new analytical frameworks, applications, and concepts in mobility analysis and transportation systems. Fields covered are evolving rapidly, and this new edition updates existing material and provides new chapters that reflect recent developments in the field (such as the emergence of active, transfer and reinforcement learning). Users will find a detailed, mobility ‘structural’ analysis and a look at the extensive behavioral characteristics of transport, observability requirements, limitations for realistic transportation applications, and transportation systems analysis that are related to complex processes and phenomena. This book bridges the gap between big data, data science, and transportation systems analysis with a study of big data’s impact on mobility and an introduction to the tools necessary to apply new techniques.

The book "Safety Strategy for Intelligent Transport Telematics Systems" is a monograph devoted to one of the key challenges of modern transport - the security of telematics systems. In this sense, the publication aligns with current research trends related to the dynamic development of information and telecommunications technologies which are shaping new operating models for transport and logistics companies. The authors address the issue of strategic transport management, focusing on the role of telematics as a tool supporting efficiency, automation, and coordination of operations. Particular emphasis is placed on the issues of risk and safety - which, in an era of growing transport volumes and intensifying competition in the transport market, are becoming a prerequisite for the reliability and sustainable development of the entire industry. The book demonstrates that the safe use of telematics systems is not only a technological requirement, but also a social and environmental one. It is in line with European Union policy, which prioritizes environmental protection, improving social well-being, and reducing road accidents, which constitute one of the greatest threats to civilization. Combining theoretical and practical perspectives, this monograph offers a comprehensive overview of the implementation of secure telematics solutions. It is a valuable resource for transport researchers and students, as well as for logistics company managers and decision-makers responsible for infrastructure development and transport policy.

Based on Paul von Fange's monumental book, Scenicruising: The Greyhound Scenicruiser Story, this book focuses on Greyhound's second post-war attempt in 1949 at a larger capacity highway cruiser called GX-2. Hand-built by Greyhound engineers in Chicago, its dramatic deck-and-a-half silhouette would become a visual icon. And its name, Scenicruiser, would grace the fleet to come. It sported windows in the roof, an 8-seat lounge in the rear with leather seats and a table, an on-board restroom and seated 43 passengers in panoramic splendor. Its success paved the way for the flagship of the fleet - the Greyhound Scenicruiser.
