To aid a fuller understanding of the costs and benefits of these distribution strategies in diverse delivery environments, this work develops a multi-echelon last-mile distribution model using Continuous Approximation (CA) techniques. The model results suggest that traditional last-mile delivery with diesel trucks is a good fit for e-retailers delivering in dense environments with lenient temporal constraints (parcel service), a strategy that allows for demand consolidation and thus low-cost low-emission distribution.

This study develops a model that estimates how the built environment affects the decision to choose ridehailing for making non-work trips.

This paper introduces a methodological approach for evaluating transportation-based access via the public roadway network referred to as edge accessibility, which is derived from the graph theory measure of closeness.

This paper presents results from a 2018 survey of local planners about an impending transition in California’s environmental review law, which will require planners to evaluate land development projects for their effects on vehicle miles traveled (VMT) rather than automobile level-of-service (LOS).

Researchers present a simulation-based quasi-statistical approach to estimate electric vehicle energy consumption under various on-road vehicle operating conditions.

This paper presents a mathematical model for analyzing long-term infrastructure investment decisions in a deregulated electricity market, such as the case in the United States.

Researchers articulate current emission reduction challenges facing cement industries and propose solutions that focus on mitigating emissions from cement production

This research assessed the impact of USEPA’s AERMOD dispersion model (version of 19191) source types on predicted pollutant concentrations via a case study for the I-75/I-575 Northwest Corridor (NWC) in Atlanta, GA.

This paper argues that California should use opportunities to align the distribution of state transportation dollars with its climate objectives, not fall back on status quo allocation practices.

In this paper, researchers propose a generic framework of real-time energy management for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, where an Estimation Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is used for on-line (i.e., real-time) optimization of the power-split strategy.
