Paul Valéry, Una conquista metodica
2014
II volume raccoglie una scelta di testi di Valéry suddivisi in sezioni per genere letterario. La poesia è presente con i grandi testi che gli hanno dato fama, un'ampia raccolta delle poesie giovanili e una scelta delle poesie ritrovate nella corrispondenza con gli amici: versi finora ignoti, ove l'erotismo si fonde con la tenerezza. Accanto alla poesia, il Meridiano presenta un campione di prosa poetica, i grandi dialoghi, il teatro e un'ampia sezione di saggistica - dedicata all'arte, al pensiero astratto, ai problemi concreti del mondo attuale. Ma è la sezione "Modelli e strumenti del pensiero" a delineare il percorso del tutto personale di Valéry: da Monsieur Teste - che fece dello scrit…

Distraction of cyclists: how does it influence their risky behaviors and traffic crashes?
2018
BackgroundUndisputedly, traffic crashes constitute a public health concern whose impact and importance have been increasing during the past few decades. Specifically, road safety data have systematically shown how cyclists are highly vulnerable to suffering traffic crashes and severe injuries derived from them. Furthermore, although the empirical evidence is still very limited in this regard, in addition to other human factors involved in cycling crashes, distractions while cycling appear to be a major contributor to the road risk of cyclists.ObjectivesThe main objectives of this study were, first, to explore the prevalence and trends of cycling distractions within an international sample o…
Capacity-based calculation of passenger car equivalents using traffic simulation at double-lane roundabouts
2018
Abstract Calculation of passenger car equivalents for heavy vehicles represents the starting point for the operational analysis of road facilities and other traffic management applications. This paper introduces a criterion to find the passenger car equivalents that reflect traffic conditions at double-lane roundabouts, where the capacity is typically estimated for each entry lane. Based on the equivalence defined by the proportion of capacity used by vehicles of different classes, the criterion implies a comparison between the capacity that would occur with a traffic demand of passenger cars only and the capacity reached beginning from a demand with a certain percentage of heavy vehicles. …
La sombra del poder: Egisto
2017
El poder, si es efectivo, proyecta una sombra, fenómeno inherente a su necesaria entidad, y en el caso del género de poder que representa Clitemnestra la sombra es de todo punto necesaria, pues su poder precisa de la existencia de Egisto, a la vez que de su no presencia. Intentaremos ahondar en las razones por las que se llega al estado de cosas presente en la Orestea de Esquilo. The power, if it is effective, projects a shadow, phenomenon inherent in his necessary entity, and in the case of the genre of power that represents Clytemnestra shadow it is absolutely necessary, because it requires power from the existence of Aegisthus, while that of their non-presence. We try to delve into the r…
Trip Characteristics Analysis of the Effects of a Travel Behavior Change Program
2018
[EN] Travel behavior change programs (TBCP) are measures or actions specifically designed to motivate people to reduce their car use. This study contributes to the literature on rigorous evaluation of the effects of participating in TBCP. In particular, we analyze the effect of TBCP in relation to a potential for a reduction in car use. In contrast to previous studies, the effect of TBCP is analyzed considering two characteristics of the trip: travel companion and time of trip. The TBCP, consisting of three persuasion actions customized to the needs of the participants in the research, was designed and implemented in Valencia (Spain). To evaluate the effects of participating in the TBCP, a …
Communal Transportation: Challenges for Largescale Routing Heuristics
2007
In this report we review the central transportation logistics problems arising in the communal sector, using information gathered from several large communes in Finland and previous literature. Most of the communal transportation problems can be modelled as different variants of the vehicle routing problem. The basic features of the problems are described, modelled and analyzed, and the relevant previous research on the topics is reviewed. In addition, some possible new solution strategies are suggested.
Development of International Freight Transit in Latvia
2013
Abstract International freight transit is transportation of goods through third countries which are neither senders or consumers of the transported freight. International freight transit provides the use of transport infrastructure capacities and the development of transport infrastructure in Latvia, especially in seaports and railways. In Latvia approximately 97% of all transported freight carried by railway is international freight transit. The turnover of Latvia's seaports is approximately 90% international freight transit transport. This paper describes comparative position of Latvia in Logistics Performance Index and assesses international competitiveness of Latvia's international frei…
