  • Dynamic charging of electric buses

    Publication

    - Year 2018

    Despite the continuous development of electrochemical battery technology and the multitude of electric buses on offer, it is still not possible to exploit electric buses in urban transport on an all-day basis without the necessity of charging them. It is therefore necessary to build point-to-point contact charging stations or induction charging stations at the terminals. This results in substantial financial outlays connected with...

  • Assessing the Risk in Urban Public Transport for Epidemiologic Factors

    Pandemics have presented new challenges for public transport organisers and operators. New diseases (e.g., influenza H1N1, severe acute respiratory syndrome—SARS, as well as, more recently, SARS-CoV-2) increase the need for new protection measures to prevent epidemic outbreaks in public transport infrastructure. The authors’ goal is to present a set of actions in the area of public transport that are adjusted to different levels...

    Publication

    - Communications - Scientific Letters of the University of Zilina - Year 2020

    Nowadays, in all the cities, there is an acute problem of a lack of parking spaces. The number of vehicles are becoming more and more larger, not only in megacities, but in small cities of the country, as well and there are no more parking places - the pace of solving the problem is several times slower than the rate of the transport growth among the citizens. The article is dedicated to the determination of the optimum sizes parking...

  • INCREASING THE COUNTRY'S SECURITY AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT ACCESSIBILITY BY CREATING A NETWORK OF SMALL AIRPORTS

    It has been shown that by creating a network of small airports, it is possible to increase the communication accessibility of large population groups and the country's security, including safety at sea. The airports mentioned above may also be located on land considered to be weak from an engineering point of view. These include, for example, wetlands, swamps, flood embankments, poor coastal belt grounds, and reclaimed land. A...

    In this paper, we focus on fairness issues of Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications. In particular, we show that under a common technique of selection of RSUs by OBUs based on the received signal strength, a vast variability of a number of OBUs connected to RSUs can be observed leading to inefficient/unfair service provided by RSUs. To overcome this problem, we propose an algorithm for RSU selection called RSEL to obtain...
