Współczesne wyzwania dla logistyki miasta - kształtowanie nowych struktur przestrzennych w dostawach towarów
2016
Logistyka miasta jako podstawa kształtowania zachowań komunikacyjnych
2013
Stały wzrost wykorzystania indywidualnych środków komunikacji miejskiej potęguje zjawisko kongestii i obniżenie jakości życia w mieście. Dążenie do ograniczenia negatywnych skutków podróży indywidualnych wymaga nie tylko zastosowania zmian organizacyjno-prawnych, ale przede wszystkim zachowań komunikacyjnych mieszkańców. W artykule zaprezentowano podstawowe etapy zmian zachowań mobilnościowych oraz instrumenty wspierające te zmiany.
Quando la macchina organizza il lavoratore. Spunti su eterodirezione e sistema voice-picking nei contratti di appalto
2022
Nel presente contributo, dopo aver dato atto, per cenni, degli orientamenti giurisprudenziali più recenti in tema di interposizione illecita di manodopera, forniscono alcuni spunti di riflessione in merito al problematico utilizzo, negli appalti ad alta intensità di manodopera nel settore della logistica, del sistema c.d. voice-picking, con cui il personale adibito alle lavorazioni nei magazzini viene guidato da una voce sintetizzata nell’esecuzione della prestazione lavorativa. In this contribution, after acknowledging, for hints, the most recent jurisprudential guidelines on the subject of the illegal interposition of manpower, they provide some food for thought on the problematic use, in…
Logistyka ostatniej mili jako najdroższy odcinek łańcucha dostaw
2022
Last mile logistics is considered the most expensive part of the supply chain. This is due to the high cost of deliveries related to the costs of organizing the transport of small parcels to individual customers, including the costs of fuel, vehicle operation and couriers. Considering the growing popularity of e-commerce among citizens, the growing problem of the last mile of deliveries should be analysed. The study focuses on the analysis of the literature on the subject, as well as on the existing or possible solutions to issues related to deliveries to the end customer. The main aim of the study is to present the proposed solutions to the last mile problem in the light of possible benefi…
Context-sensitive distraction warnings : effects on drivers' visual behavior and acceptance
2016
In this study, we investigated the effects of context-sensitive distraction warnings on drivers' in-car glance behaviors and acceptance. The studied prototype warning application functions on a smart phone. The novelty of the application is its proactive and context-sensitive approach to the adjustment of warning thresholds according to the estimated visual demands of the driving situation ahead. In our study, novice and experienced drivers conducted in-car tasks with a smart phone on a test track with and without the warnings. The application gave a warning if the driver's gaze was recognized to remain on the smart phone over a situation-specific threshold time, or if the driver was approa…
On the Visual Distraction Effects of Audio-Visual Route Guidance
2016
This is the first controlled quantitative analysis on the visual distraction effects of audio-visual route guidance in simulated, but ecologically realistic driving scenarios with dynamic maneuvers and self-controlled speed (N = 24). The audio-visual route guidance system under testing passed the set verification criteria, which was based on drivers’ preferred occlusion distances on the test routes. There were no significant effects of an upcoming maneuver instruction location (up, down) on the in-car display on any metric or on the experienced workload. The drivers’ median occlusion distances correlated significantly with median incar glance distances. There was no correlation between driv…
Visual Distraction Effects between In-Vehicle Tasks with a Smartphone and a Motorcycle Helmet-Mounted Head-Up Display
2018
Besides motorists, also motorcyclists need safer user interfaces to interact with useful applications on the road. In this paper, distraction effects of in-vehicle tasks conducted with a head-up display (HUD) for motorcyclists were compared to smartphone tasks with 24 participants in a driving simulator. Compared to the smartphone tasks, the head-up display tasks decreased the percentage of inappropriately long glances by 45 percent. The head-up display tasks were also experienced as less demanding than the smartphone tasks. Additionally, the use of head-up display for navigation did not lead to gaze concentration effects compared to baseline driving. The head-up display is concluded to be …
Refining distraction potential testing guidelines by considering differences in glancing behavior
2021
Driver distraction is a recognized cause of traffic accidents. Although the well-known guidelines for measuring distraction of secondary in-car tasks were published by the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2013, studies have raised concerns on the accuracy of the method defined in the guidelines, namely criticizing them for basing the diversity of the driver sample on driver age, and for inconsistent between-group results. In fact, it was recently discovered that the NHTSA driving simulator test is susceptible to rather fortuitous results when the participant sample is randomized. This suggests that the results of said test are highly dependent on the s…
THE INFLUENCE OF THE ROMANIAN-GERMAN ECONOMIC RELATIONS ON A SPECIFIC MARKET IN ROMANIA
2015
Considering the evolution of the Romanian-German economic relations, with their two major components (the direct foreign investments and trade), we analyzed their influence on a specific market in Romania, in this case the logistics market in Romania. After the analysis, we can conclude that the Romanian-German economic relations influenced in a positive way the development of the logistics market in Romania, both in terms of quantity but also in terms of quality, and, in addition to this, it has a significant contribution in terms of stability for the logistics market in Romania.
POSITIONING LOGISTICS INTO THE STRUCTURAL ORGANISATION OF THE COMPANY
2011
A well-functioning logistics system for referral to the evolution of the enterprise contributes three main components, the development of which determines the development of the enterprise: management of the flows that are necessary in order to intensify trade in the market, management processes, whose task is to quickly respond to actions affecting the network structure in the enterprise , product management for its improvement, along with offering potential customers, more and higher quality services. The following article shows, in addition to the above three components, as positioning and smooth operation of all processes and elements of the logistics system, allows to correct its posit…
