The planning and development of rail services require various considerations. Land availability, land use, catchment, route matching, infrastructure fitting, barrier free and micro-climate friendly designs are some of the factors heeded prior to such installations. A deviation between designated and highly demanded service area in urban sprawl zones of the city has been occurring in many Malaysian cities. These gaps have led to the mismatch between origin/destination of passengers and planned locations of train stations and its feeder bus stops. As such, rail services become less accessible to populations with the highest demands. This paper discusses the preliminary findings from a pilot study which seeks to calibrate the research instrument and validate preliminary findings before actual data collection for the purpose of determining the service catchment of the T461 feeder bus in Kajang MRT Station. The Garmin GPS device acts as the research instrument to obtain coordinates of locations where passengers board and alight feeder buses. On-board surveys and comparison analyses are methods that have been used to obtain the optimum GPS coordinates of the bus stop locations. The preliminary findings indicate that the research instrument is ready to be used for actual data collection and geospatial analysis to determine the service catchment of the T461 feeder bus service.

RESUMOOs desastres relacionados às águas, ocorridos no Brasil, aprofundaram e ampliaram as pesquisas sobre tais fenômenos. Este artigo analisa os conflitos decorrentes da resposta do governo da cidade de Campos dos Goytacazes/RJ às consequências dos desastres: o programa de habitação popular “Morar Feliz”. Realizaram-se levantamentos bibliográficos, coleta de dados em órgãos públicos e entrevistas com moradores reassentados. Os resultados indicam a existência de conflito de interesses que opõem os moradores que reivindicam ficar no bairro em que residem, ou próximo a ele, e o governo municipal, que promove a expansão urbana em áreas com insuficiência de infraestrutura urbana.Palavras-Chave: desastres ambientais, habitação popular, risco.RESUMENLos desastres relacionados con el agua que ocurrieron en Brasil profundizaron y ampliaron las investigaciones sobre estos fenómenos.

Urban transportation bus stop systems are essential in supporting the city's ideal transportation facilities for urban communities . Technologies are developed over the years is to meet human needs . But if all that does not make people feel safe and comfortable , it means that in the process of designing and manufacturing , there has been a mistake orientation. Bus stops for public transport facilities in the city of Makassar to be made with regard to ergonomic aspects , but in fact that is not the case . For example, seating facilities at bus stops are not in accordance with the terms of ergonomics . the purpose of this study was to analyze the level of ergonomic facilities in relation to security and comfort on city transport stops facility . Data collection for this study is made by measuring the dimensions of the passenger's body and questionnaires were analyzed using house of quality and ergonomics approach. Safety level research results valuable facilities ergonomics dismissal of 95% percentile anthropometry results obtained sidewalk size 24.76 cm in hight, chair seat at stop halt with the size of 36.21 cm in width, 44.45 cm seats in height and backrest in height 56.92 cm and 411.4 cm in length.

One of the government's duties to fulfill the need for safe, comfortable and affordable public transportation services so as to facilitate the mobilization of the community in carrying out its activities is the Golek Bus Application Service as an innovation in improving public transportation services for users of the Suroboyo Bus service. The purpose of this research is to find out and describe the application innovation Gobis in improving public transportation services Suroboyo Bus in the city of Surabaya by using qualitative research methods with data collection techniques observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques are data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that the five attributes of innovation are as follows: 1) Relative advantage in innovation has been carried out optimally because it has advantages over previous innovations, 2) Conformity in the innovation of gobis applications in suroboyo bus services is optimal, but there are still some that need improvement due to the lack of additional routes for lines that match the corridors in the gobis application, 3) The complexity of this new innovation is also good but there are still shortcomings related to the arrival and departure schedules of Suroboyo Bus.

The use of public buses constitutes the primary daily transportation mode for commuters inside the city of Yangon. The efficiency of the public bus transportation service is important to the local government in terms of public safety and energy saving. The main objective of this study is to understand the current public bus transportation problems in Yangon and to propose a new improved method for the allocation of bus stops. In this study, an on-board survey was conducted to collect bus-passenger counts. Moreover, a check-point survey was carried out to determine the passenger volume at each bus stop and to decide whether the bus stop should be relocated. Finally, a geographic information systems (GIS) model was developed to determine the optimized bus-stop locations based on the passenger volume and on various public-facility locations (such as offices and shopping centers). This study aims to support the Yangon Bus Service (YBS), a major bus transportation service in Yangon city – Myanmar, to optimize its bus network.

AbstractTo assess the comparative similarity of squat data collected as they wore a robotic exoskeleton, female athletes (n=14) did two exercise bouts spaced 14 days apart. Data from their exoskeleton workout was compared to a session they did with free weights. Each squat workout entailed a four-set, four-repetition paradigm with 60-second rest periods. Sets for each workout involved progressively heavier (22.5, 34, 45.5, 57 kg) loads. The same physiological, perceptual, and exercise performance dependent variables were measured and collected from both workouts. Per dependent variable, Pearson correlation coefficients, t-tests, and Cohen's d effect size compared the degree of similarity between values obtained from the exoskeleton and free weight workouts. Results show peak O2, heart rate, and peak force data produced the least variability. In contrast, far more inter-workout variability was noted for peak velocity, peak power, and electromyography (EMG) values. Overall, an insufficient amount of comparative similarity exists for data collected from both workouts. Due to the limited data similarity, the exoskeleton does not exhibit an acceptable degree of validity. Likely the cause for the limited similarity was due to the brief amount of familiarization subjects had to the exoskeleton prior to actual data collection. A familiarization session that accustomed subjects to squats done with the exoskeleton prior to actual data collection may have considerably improved the validity of data obtained from that device.
