This paper presents an insightful journey into understanding how travellers in the Northeast England perceive and interact with both conventional and emerging automated bus services. Employing a comprehensive methodology, our research scrutinizes data collected from 417 regional respondents via online questionnaires, integrating a blend of quantitative, qualitative, and spatial data points. This approach not only uncovers nuanced attitudes towards public transportation but also sheds light on the potential implications and acceptance of automated bus (AB) services, a fundamental element in shaping the future of urban mobility. The narrative aimed at (i) identifying present socio-demographic clusters and their travel behaviour, (ii) analysing perceptions regarding public transport with an emphasis on bus services, (iii) discovering attitudes towards AB systems and (iv) establishing the likelihood of a travel shift towards ABs.

The quantitative analysis applied Multiple Correspondence Analysis, unveiling five distinct socio-demographic clusters: (1) full-time employed, car-dependent individuals; (2) flexibly working individuals with mixed travel modes; (3) retired, car-dependent persons; (4) unemployed individuals primarily relying on walking and bus services; and (5) employed students utilizing various public transport and active travel modes. Furthermore, Categorical Principal Component Analysis revealed four key attitudinal components influencing bus service perceptions: (a) safety, quality, and comfort; (b) accessibility and availability; (c) cost and reliability; and (d) punctuality and preferences for alternatives. The qualitative dimension covered content and sentiment analysis on responses to open-ended questions about automated buses. This analysis highlighted mixed sentiments, with 56 % positive and 44 % negative mentions. Key connotations with automated buses included expectations of reduced accidents and safer roads, enhanced reliability and frequency of services, potential job losses, diminished social interaction, and concerns over personal security. The study culminates in a spatial analysis, synthesizing the socio-demographic clusters, attitudinal components, and a comparative assessment of traditional versus automated bus services.

While the externalities of urban size on regional transportation infrastructure effects have been extensively discussed, the role of urban administrative power has received comparatively less scholarly attention. This study delves into the impact of high-speed rail (HSR) development on urban industrial upgrading and regional development, focusing on both economic and administrative externalities. By applying the concepts of ‘borrowed size’ and ‘agglomeration shadow,’ we analyze the effects of HSR on industrial upgrading in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region using panel data from 199 county-level units between 2000 and 2017. Employing multi-stage difference-in-differences (DID) and difference-in-difference-in-differences (DDD) models, our findings reveal that HSR significantly catalyzes industrial upgrading in the YRD, with a notable reduction in the output value of the secondary sector by 4.4 % and an expansion of the tertiary sector by 7.4 %. Additionally, this study indicates a positive correlation between urban size and manufacturing sector exit, while administrative power enhances the service sector's concentration in HSR-connected regions. These findings not only contribute to the existing body of scholarship on HSR's role in industrial upgrading but also advance a novel methodological approach that bridges transport geography and urban political economy through the lens of transport infrastructure as a mediating mechanism.

虽然城市规模对区域交通基础设施效应的外部性已经被广泛讨论，但城市行政权力的作用却受到相对较少的学术关注。本文从经济外部性和行政外部性两个方面探讨了高铁发展对城市产业升级和区域发展的影响。本文运用“借用规模”和“集聚阴影”的概念，利用2000 - 2017年199个县域单位的面板数据，分析了高铁对长三角地区产业升级的影响。采用多阶段差异中差异（DID）和差异中差异（DDD）模型，我们的研究结果表明，高铁显著促进了长三角地区的产业升级，第二产业产值显著下降4.4%，第三产业产值显著增长7.4%。此外，研究还发现城市规模与制造业出口呈正相关，而行政权力增强了高铁连接地区服务业的集中度。这些发现不仅有助于现有的关于高铁在产业升级中的作用的学术研究，而且还提出了一种新的方法方法，通过交通基础设施作为中介机制的视角，将交通地理学和城市政治经济学联系起来。

The local structure has a decisive impact on the structural resilience of the Global Crude Oil Maritime Transportation Network (GCOMTN). However, existing studies ignore the significant local characteristics of ports that arise from the unique transport patterns of crude oil tankers. In this study, we construct the GCOMTN using AIS data of crude oil tankers from 2020 and develop a framework for assessing structural resilience at a finer granularity. Specifically, we introduced motif structures to characterize local structural features and proposed a sub-network perspective to evaluate the structural resilience of ports. We then explore the structural resilience of both network-wide and port-level under three intentional attack scenarios. The results indicate that closed motifs are the most vulnerable, disappearing rapidly under intentional attacks. The GCOMTN structure is particularly sensitive to failures at strategically located ports. Conversely, individual ports demonstrate greater resilience in such scenario, even though their local structures tend to be inherently unstable. This study offers valuable insights for the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to collaborate effectively with port authorities, ensuring alignment in the goal of maintaining stable crude oil transportation.

局部结构对全球原油海上运输网络（GCOMTN）的结构弹性具有决定性影响。然而，现有的研究忽略了原油油轮独特的运输方式所产生的港口显著的地方特征。在本研究中，我们使用2020年以来的原油油轮AIS数据构建了gcomn，并开发了一个更细粒度的结构弹性评估框架。具体而言，我们引入motif结构来表征局部结构特征，并提出了子网络视角来评估港口的结构弹性。然后，我们在三种故意攻击场景下探讨了网络范围和端口级别的结构弹性。结果表明，封闭基序是最脆弱的，在故意攻击下迅速消失。gcomn结构对战略位置港口的故障尤其敏感。相反，个别港口在这种情况下表现出更大的弹性，尽管它们的本地结构往往本身就不稳定。这项研究为国际海事组织（IMO）与港口当局有效合作提供了有价值的见解，确保保持稳定原油运输的目标一致。

COVID-19 has a great impact on the volume and frequency of air transportation. To minimise the transmission risk, civil aviation authorities imposed travel restrictions and led to changes of the global and regional air traffic network (ATN). Considering the potential for future similar propagable events that may challenge the operation of the ATN again, it is crucial to develop more efficient air route adjustment schemes (ARAS) to better respond to propagable outbreaks. This study first examines the development patterns of propagable events and constructs a spatial temporal evolution model under the coupling of event development and traffic flow. Based on the dynamic process of the spatial temporal evolution model, the study explores the resilience assessment method of the ATN throughout the entire cycle of events. This study proposes a methodological framework to intervene in the air route reduction and recovery of any two connected airport pairs based on the prioritised network centrality (PNC) during all rising and descending phases of propagatable outbreaks to achieve overall ATN network resilience enhancement, and the model is validated by the case under COVID-19 background. The numerical study shows that the adjustment of air route capacity has a significant impact on the control of the introduction of cases in the initial phase. However, there is no significant impact on controlling the risk of propagation if the destined regions face widespread local propagation. This explains that travel restriction and quarantine of the ATN do not contribute to controlling the local propagation of regions but can ameliorate the severity of the overall outbreak at the network level by affecting the spreading sequence across the network. To improve the network resilience in response to propagable outbreaks, The air route adjustment scheme considering prioritised network centrality (ARAS-PNC) approach can capitalise on the impact of network performance and outbreak progression and respond better at the network level with greater network efficiency and lower network-wide effective case rate.

新冠肺炎疫情对航空运输量和频率产生重大影响。为了尽量减少传播风险，民航当局实施了旅行限制，并导致全球和区域空中交通网络（ATN）的变化。考虑到未来可能发生的类似可传播事件可能再次挑战空中交通网络的运作，制定更有效的航线调整计划（ARAS）以更好地应对可传播的疫情至关重要。本研究首先考察了可传播事件的发展模式，构建了事件发展与交通流耦合下的时空演化模型。基于时空演化模型的动态过程，探索了整个事件周期的ATN恢复力评价方法。本研究提出了一种方法框架，在可传播性疫情的所有上升和下降阶段，基于优先网络中心性（PNC）干预任意两个连接机场对的航线减少和恢复，以实现整体ATN网络弹性增强，并通过COVID-19背景下的案例验证了该模型。数值研究表明，航路容量的调整对初始阶段引入病例的控制有重要影响。然而，如果目标区域面临广泛的局部传播，则对控制传播风险没有显著影响。这说明，对ATN的旅行限制和隔离并不能控制区域的局部传播，但可以通过影响网络上的传播顺序，在网络层面上减轻整体疫情的严重程度。考虑到优先网络中心（ARAS-PNC）方法的航线调整方案可以利用网络性能和爆发进程的影响，在网络层面上做出更好的响应，提高网络效率，降低网络范围内的有效病例率。

The predominant mode of public transport in South Africa originates from the informal sector, specifically “paratransit”. Vehicles carry up to 23 passengers and are still propelled by internal combustion engines. We investigate the feasibility of using electric vehicles without negating the loss of opportunities by drivers and owners. We propose that scheduling of the electric vehicles is one important cornerstone towards electrification. We developed a fast-executing heuristic scheduling algorithm that allows for multiple vehicle depots in the transport network; simultaneous electric and internal combustion engine vehicle deployment; determining the number of charging stations; partial charging; and scheduled charging with intermittent electricity supply. The scheduling algorithm achieves the minimum number of vehicles to execute the passenger demand in shorter total distances, outperforming current approaches. The algorithm demonstrated multi-objective optimisation by minimising the vehicles, the number of charging stations, and the average trip delays of a schedule.

南非的主要公共交通方式来自非正规部门，特别是 "准公共交通"。这些车辆最多可搭载 23 名乘客，仍由内燃机驱动。我们研究了使用电动汽车的可行性，同时不否认驾驶员和车主的机会损失。我们提出，电动车辆的调度是实现电气化的一个重要基石。我们开发了一种快速执行的启发式调度算法，允许在运输网络中设置多个车辆仓库；同时部署电动汽车和内燃机汽车；确定充电站的数量；部分充电；以及在间歇性供电的情况下进行计划充电。该调度算法能在更短的总距离内实现最少的车辆数量以满足乘客需求，优于目前的方法。该算法通过最小化车辆、充电站数量和计划的平均行程延迟，实现了多目标优化。

Liquefied natural gas (LNG), as a transitional fossil fuel, plays a vital role in the modern energy transition process. In the context of the Russia–Ukraine geopolitical conflict, studying the evolution pattern and mechanisms of LNG trade networks is crucial for maintaining global energy security, particularly for countries relying on LNG imports. The study is based on multisource big data from 2021 to 2022, including Automatic Identification System (AIS) data, Gdelt news data, and remote sensing satellite data. It utilizes complex network metrics and the temporal exponential random graph model (TERGM) method to analyze the evolution patterns and mechanisms of the global LNG trade network. The research findings indicate the following: (1) The Russia–Ukraine conflict has led to a significant increase in LNG imports by European countries. Many countries have opened temporary direct shipping routes, which has accelerated the decline in the average path length of the network and improved network efficiency. (2) The global LNG trade community trend has been strengthened by the Russia–Ukraine conflict. The number of members within the trading community in which the United States is located has increased, with some European countries moving into this community. (3) The reciprocal structural characteristics of the LNG trade network drive its development, and the expansion of the national port handling capacity ability also drives network growth. Conversely, large differences in geopolitical relations, culture, and levels of governance between countries can hinder global LNG network development. This study provides a theoretical basis and decision-making reference for energy security under major geopolitical conflicts.

液化天然气（LNG）作为一种过渡性化石燃料，在现代能源转型过程中起着至关重要的作用。在俄乌地缘政治冲突的背景下，研究LNG贸易网络的演变模式和机制对于维护全球能源安全至关重要，特别是对于依赖LNG进口的国家而言。该研究基于2021 - 2022年的多源大数据，包括自动识别系统（AIS）数据、Gdelt新闻数据和遥感卫星数据。利用复杂网络度量和时间指数随机图模型（TERGM）方法分析了全球LNG贸易网络的演化模式和机制。研究结果表明：(1)俄乌冲突导致欧洲国家LNG进口量显著增加。许多国家开设了临时直航航线，加速了网络平均路径长度的下降，提高了网络效率。(2)俄乌冲突强化了全球LNG贸易共同体趋势。美国所在的贸易共同体的成员数量有所增加，一些欧洲国家也加入了这个共同体。(3) LNG贸易网络的互惠结构特征推动其发展，国家港口装卸能力的扩大也推动网络增长。相反，各国之间地缘政治关系、文化和治理水平的巨大差异可能会阻碍全球LNG网络的发展。该研究为重大地缘政治冲突下的能源安全提供了理论依据和决策参考。

Spatial and temporal coordination of air-high speed rail (HSR) intermodal networks is important to reduce emission, improve service, enhance efficiency, and reduce costs in the provision of air-HSR integration. This paper constructs a hierarchical optimisation model that first considers a spatial scope to solve the problem of route allocation and frequency choice which minimises total environmental, operational and passenger cost with a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model, based on a demand estimation for passenger trips between city pairs. Then, the second hierarchical level of the model considers a temporal scope to maximise connection opportunities between the resulting air and HSR networks using time windows to adjust frequencies with a Prescriptive Integer Quadratic Programming (PIQP) model. An application to a network of 40 cities in mainland China with both air and HSR transport service shows that the total emission of the network can be reduced by 22 %. Comparative analyses show that optimising for passenger costs favours increased air travel on medium- and long-haul routes, while an emissions-focused approach encourages a shift toward HSR for short and medium distances. Sensitivity analyses on carbon pricing further highlight the potential of gradual price adjustments to incentivise lower-emission modes without requiring additional HSR infrastructure.

空高铁（HSR）多式联运网络的时空协调对于减少排放、改善服务、提高效率和降低成本具有重要意义。本文构建了一个分层优化模型，该模型首先考虑空间范围，利用混合整数线性规划（MILP）模型解决路线分配和频率选择问题，以最小化总环境，运营和乘客成本，基于城市对之间的乘客旅行需求估计。然后，该模型的第二个层次考虑了一个时间范围，以最大限度地提高由此产生的空气和高铁网络之间的连接机会，使用时间窗口通过规定性整数二次规划（PIQP）模型调整频率。对中国大陆40个城市的航空和高铁交通网络的应用表明，该网络的总排放量可以减少22%。对比分析表明，优化乘客成本有利于增加中长途航线的航空旅行，而以排放为重点的方法则鼓励中短途转向高铁。对碳定价的敏感性分析进一步强调了在不需要额外高铁基础设施的情况下，逐步调整价格以激励低排放模式的潜力。

Comparative analyses show that optimising for passenger costs favours increased air travel on medium- and long-haul routes, while an emissions-focused approach encourages a shift toward HSR for short and medium distances. Sensitivity analyses on carbon pricing further highlight the potential of gradual price adjustments to incentivise lower-emission modes without requiring additional HSR infrastructure.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48413,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transport Geography","volume":"123 ","pages":"Article 104085"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142790048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spatial mismatch between coal production and consumption has led to long-distance coal transportation in China, which poses a challenge for balancing the trade-off between carbon reduction and energy security. In response, the spatial restructuring of long-distance transportation and how it contributes to carbon emissions are investigated. The Doubly Constrained Gravity Model is used to estimate the interprovincial coal transportation matrices from 1996 to 2019 and thus measure the coal transportation inflow and outflow radii of provinces and their corresponding carbon emissions. The results show that (1) the inflow radius supports a north-south division of provinces, with a pattern centered on Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Inner Mongolia. The outflow radius supports a coastal-inland division of provinces, with a pattern centered on the Yangtze River Delta region. Overall, the spatial extent of the coal supply in most provinces is shrinking, whereas the extent of demand is expanding. (2) Carbon emissions from coal transportation have increased with the westward shift in coal sources. The interprovincial transportation routes with the highest emissions display a radial pattern, shifting from monocentric to polycentric. (3) An increasing inflow radius suggests a demand-driven emission effect on provinces with advanced manufacturing bases, which have more emissions because of their demand gap. The decreasing outflow radius suggests a supply-driven emission effect. As provinces reduce their coal supply capacity, coal production bases should fill the demand gap, resulting in increased coal transportation emissions.

This study examines the spatial dynamics of warehouse location choice and the interplay between e-commerce, logistics businesses, and supply chain entities in three major urban areas in Texas: Houston, Austin, and Dallas-Fort Worth. We investigate the key factors influencing warehouse selection while accounting for spatial spillover effects (i.e., co-locational relationships), using data from 2003 to 2016. A major finding is that different types of business establishments exert distinct influences on warehouse location choice, varying across spatial scales. Notably, the effects from neighboring spatial units sometimes diverge from the direct impacts. For instance, manufacturing establishments have a positive direct influence on warehouse location choice in all three study areas, while neighboring manufacturing units show negative effects in Austin and Dallas. The analysis also highlights that when spatial interactions among e-commerce facilities, logistics businesses, and supply chain entities in adjacent units are accounted for, several transportation infrastructure and socioeconomic factors lose their statistical significance. The results provide valuable insights for policymakers, industry practitioners, and urban planners for informed warehousing facility allocation and development decisions in Texas metropolitan areas.

本研究考察了德克萨斯州休斯顿、奥斯汀和达拉斯-沃斯堡三个主要城市地区的仓储区位选择的空间动态，以及电子商务、物流企业和供应链实体之间的相互作用。本文利用2003年至2016年的数据，在考虑空间溢出效应（即共址关系）的情况下，研究了影响仓库选择的关键因素。主要发现是不同类型的商业机构对仓库选址的影响不同，在不同的空间尺度上存在差异。值得注意的是，邻近空间单元的影响有时会偏离直接影响。例如，在所有三个研究区域中，制造企业对仓库选址有直接的积极影响，而邻近的制造企业在奥斯汀和达拉斯则表现出负面影响。分析还强调，当考虑到相邻单元中电子商务设施、物流企业和供应链实体之间的空间相互作用时，一些交通基础设施和社会经济因素失去了统计意义。研究结果为决策者、行业从业者和城市规划者提供了有价值的见解，为德克萨斯州大都市地区的仓储设施配置和发展决策提供了依据。

Transit-oriented development encourages metropolises to alleviate jobs-housing separation (JHS) by optimizing the built environment (BE). Researchers have found that BE exerts different effects on home- and work-oriented JHS, but their statistical models ignored the nonlinear and spatially nonstationary features of the relationship. In this study, we collected location-based service data to identify commuters and aggregated them to 188 metro station areas from a home or work orientation. We then defined a parameter β to measure JHS following the distance decay law, added three-dimensional (3D) indicators to the “Node-Place-Function” system to describe the BE, and applied the LightGBM-SHAP after multi-model comparison to learn and visualize their complex relationships. We identified three types of BE variables: 1) exhibiting important effects only on one orientation, 2) exhibiting similar effects on two orientations, and 3) exhibiting opposite effects on two orientations. Particularly, we designed a new visualization framework for SHAP that synergizes nonlinear dependency with the spatial distribution, which can provide threshold targets and spatial ranges for policy regulation simultaneously. For example, Hanyang should increase its shared bicycle density to 900 vehicles/km² to meet the travel needs of residents, while Jianghan should provide affordable housing (<180,00 yuan/m²) to meet the housing needs of workers. Our findings aim to encourage planners to consider nonlinear determined thresholds in regulating actual spaces, which can directly support the refined urban management under limited resource condition.

以交通为导向的发展鼓励大都市通过优化建筑环境来缓解职住分离（JHS）。研究发现，BE对家庭取向和工作取向的JHS有不同的影响，但他们的统计模型忽略了这种关系的非线性和空间非平稳特征。在这项研究中，我们收集了基于位置的服务数据来识别通勤者，并将他们从家庭或工作方向汇总到188个地铁站区域。根据距离衰减规律定义了测量JHS的参数β，在“节点-位置-功能”体系中加入三维（3D）指标来描述BE，并应用多模型比较后的LightGBM-SHAP来学习和可视化它们之间的复杂关系。我们确定了三种类型的BE变量：1)只在一个方向上表现出重要的影响，2)在两个方向上表现出相似的影响，以及3)在两个方向上表现出相反的影响。特别地，我们设计了一个新的SHAP可视化框架，该框架将非线性依赖与空间分布协同起来，可以同时为政策调控提供阈值目标和空间范围。例如，汉阳应将其共享自行车密度增加到900辆/平方公里，以满足居民的出行需求，而江汉应提供经济适用房（<；18万元/平方米），以满足工人的住房需求。研究结果旨在鼓励规划者在调节实际空间时考虑非线性确定阈值，从而直接支持有限资源条件下的精细化城市管理。
