Language: English Publisher: New Jersey : World Scientific, [2019]Copyright date: c2019Description: xviii, 493 pages ; 26 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9789813224087 (hc : alk. paper); 9789813224094 (pbk : alk. paper)Subject(s): Urban transportation | Local transit | Transportation engineeringDDC classification: 388.068 LOC classification: TA1205 | .D34 2019Summary: This unique book explains how to think systematically about public transportation through the lens of physics models. The book includes aspects of system design, resource management, operations and control. It presents both, basic theories that reveal fundamental issues, and practical recipes that can be readily used for real-world applications. The principles conveyed in this book cover not only traditional transit modes such as subways, buses and taxis but also the newer mobility services that are being enabled by advances in telematics and robotics. Although the book is rigorous, it includes numerous exercises and a presentation style suitable for senior undergraduate or entry-level graduate students in engineering. The book can also serve as a reference for transportation professionals and researchers keen in this field.| Item type | Current location | Home library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
