Abstract Current practice of designing subway stations usually based on relevant design guidebooks and experiences of the designers. Improper station design may lead to bottleneck areas which may reduce the efficiency of the passenger flow. In Hong Kong.
Abstract With the emergence of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technologies, research on traffic flow modeling and analysis will play a very important role in improving our understanding of the fundamental characteristics of traffic flow. The frontier of studies on …

Hoc Networks (VANETs) simulations. Moreover, mobility models with higher extent of reality to fit into the characteristics of VANETs better make simulations more credible and accurate. However, most of traditional mobility models only devote to planar and ideal scenarios.
Abstract – The study of collective movement of pedestrians is crucial in various situations, such as evacuation of buildings, stadiums, or external events like concerts or public events. In such situations and under panic conditions, several incidents and disasters may arise…
Abstract – When looking at the history of technology, we can see that all inventions are not of equal importance. Only a few technologies have the potential to start a new branching series (specifically, by increasing diversity), have a lasting impact in human life and ultimately …
Abstract: The law of allometric scaling based on Zipf distributions can be employed to research hierarchies of cities in a geographical region. However, the allometric patterns are easily influenced by random disturbance from the noises in observational data. In theory …
Crowdfunding has emerged over the last few years as a means for small business owners to raise money on the Internet by tapping the easily accessible crowd of potential funders. Campaigns have been very successful, in some cases raising millions of dollars…
Scientific society argues that human group demonstrates higher capabilities of information processing and problem solving than an individual does (Luo et al., 2009). Collective Intelligence (CI) is the general ability of a group to perform a wide variety of …
The informal transport infrastructure is an inseparable and critical element of the transportation system in that it provides pedestrian accessibility in planned or unplanned environments. Despite this important role, the informal infrastructure is usually neglected …
