Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari mempunyai tiga kampus di Kalimantan Selatan yaitu di Banjarmasin, Anjir, dan di Banjarbaru. Kampus Banjarmasin merupakan kampus utama dari Universitas Islam Kalimantan. Bus Kampus ini telah beroperasi sejak beberapa tahun yang lalu. Awalnya pengoperasian bus kampus ini bertujuan untuk membantu para akademisi antar kampus Banjarmasin dengan kampus Banjarbaru. Namun, karena hanya memiliki 1 unit bus maka masih banyak para akademisi yang menggunakan angkutan umum dan kendaraan pribadi untuk kekampus. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mensimulasi pergerakan kampus Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari. Metodologi penelitian dilakukan dengan survei wawancara terhadap civitas akademik untuk dilakukan analisis dan evaluasi terhadap kapasitas bus dengan jumlah penumpang yang akan menggunakannya. Hasil dari penelitian ini didapat simulasi pergerakan bus kampus Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari. Maka dari penelitian ini mengusulkan untuk adanya penambahan bus sebanyak 5 buah dan penambahan penjadwalan bus untuk operasi.Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari has three campuses in South Kalimantan, namely in Banjarmasin, Anjir, and in Banjarbaru. The Banjarmasin campus is the main campus of the Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari. The campus bus has been operating since a few years ago. Initially the operation of the campus bus was aimed at helping academics between Banjarmasin campuses and the Banjarbaru campus. However, because it only has 1 bus unit, there are still many academics who use public transportation and private vehicles for Kekampus. This study aims to simulate the movement of the Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari. The research methodology is carried out by interview surveys of the academic community for analysis and evaluation of the bus capacity with the number of passengers who will use it. The results of this study obtained a simulation of the bus movement of the Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari. So from this study propose for the addition of 5 buses and the addition of bus scheduling for operations.

Incidental Music describes the early stages of the development of a new approach – sound therapy – for children who have severe learning difficulties (SLD) and profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD). Sound itself, including what we call ‘music’, in combination with aspects of new music technology, provide the basis for this approach. Sound therapy acknowledges the expressive potential of all sound with the aim of enabling and developing additional ways of communicating and expressing. A research methodology has been developed to enable a detailed, rigorous analysis and evaluation of observed phenomena. This is briefly described and a case study, based on the use of Soundbeam, reveals some aspects of sound therapy. I am grateful to the staff and pupils of the Lambert School for their help, encouragement, co-operation and warmth in enabling this project.

Nowadays, the total volume of passenger trip demand has increased due to population and economic growth. In this situation , government policy encourages people to use public transportation for inter-city trips. In the meantime, buses are the most widely used in transit technology today. The most important issue in buses service is timely arrival. Due to the limited capacity of the streets and increasing car production, we cannot devote a specific lane to bus operation to separate their operation from other traffic. Generally, actual arrival time of buses in comparison to planned arrival time occurs in three scenarios : sooner, on-time, and later. This article represents different scheduling model to achieve timely arrival. For this purpose we tested two different scenarios by actual public bus operation. The data was obtained in the city of Tehran, since Iran was used in this study.

The authors aim to investigate the number of trees necessary to capture the CO2 emissions from house–campus travelling, to and from the Maiêutica Academic Campus in the north of Portugal. A sample of the academic community was given an online survey in order to assess mobility practices. Based on the data collected, CO2 emissions, as well as the number of trees necessary to mitigate these emissions, were calculated. The authors estimate that the total emissions resulting from house–campus commutes amount to 2937 tCO2 year−1. To mitigate this amount of carbon dioxide, 138 ha would be necessary to plant 96,539 trees, according to the species’ respective CO2 removal rates. The estimated tree area necessary to neutralize the community’s mobility related CO2 emissions is so high that other alternatives must be considered: a preferred use of public transportation, carpool system, online theoretical classes, rescheduling timetables, green roofs installation, and photovoltaic panels.

This study was initiated with a goal of improving the bus scheduling model using the past data of “smart card”. Traffic congestion level of Seoul is keep aggravating and it also has negative influence on air pollution and our health. Additionally, this heavy traffic causes high congestion costs. The continuous quantitative growth of the public transportation system brings the necessity of its efficient operation system for its future qualitative growth. The improvement of operation system is necessary also to improve public transportation operation cost efficiency of Seoul. In other words, the systematic planning is necessary for maximizing passengers’ satisfaction level and the public transportation operation cost efficiency of Seoul. The current allocation interval of Seoul bus system is designed based on the empirical data of the past, which is incapable of immediate response to rapidly changing passenger demands. This research analyses passengers’ behaviour and makes a proposal for the traffic network operation by analysing the “traffic card (smart card) big data”, which comes from over 90% of the passengers so as to be flexible in dealing with rapid changes in demand.

The optimization of bus scheduling is a key method to improve bus service. So, the purpose of this paper is to address the regional public transportation dispatching problem, while taking into account the association between the departure time of buses and the waiting time of passengers. A bi-objective optimization model for regional public transportation scheduling is established to minimize the total waiting cost of passengers and to maximize the comprehensive service rate of buses. Moreover, a NSGA-II algorithm with adaptive adjusted model for crossover and mutation probability is designed to obtain the Pareto solution set of this problem, and the entropy weight-TOPSIS method is utilized to make a decision. Then the algorithms are compared with examples, and the results show that the model is feasible, and the proposed algorithms are achievable in solving the regional public transportation scheduling problem.

The emission of greenhouse gases from public transportation has aroused extensive public attention in recent years. Electric buses have the advantage of zero emission, which could prevent the further deterioration of environmental problems. Since 2018, the number of electric buses has exceeded that of traditional buses. Thus, it is an inevitable trend for the sustainable development of the automobile industry to replace traditional fuel buses, and developing electric buses is an important measure to relieve traffic congestion. Furthermore, the bus scheduling has a significant impact on passenger travel times and operating costs. It is common that passenger demand at different stops is uneven in a public transportation system. Since applying all-stop scheduling only cannot match the passenger demand of some stops with bus resources, this paper proposes an integrated all-stop and short-turning service for electric buses, reducing the influence of uneven ridership on load factor to enhance transit attractiveness. Simultaneously, considering the time-of-use pricing strategy used by the power sector, the combinational charging strategy of daytime and overnight is proposed to reduce electricity costs. Finally, the branch-and-price algorithm is adopted to solve this problem. Compared with all-stop scheduling, the results demonstrate a reduction of 13.5% in total time cost under the combinational scheduling.

Electric buses (e-buses) demonstrate great potential in improving urban air quality thanks to zero tailpipe emissions and thus being increasingly introduced to the public transportation systems. In the transit operation planning, a common requirement is that long-distance non-service travel of the buses among bus terminals should be avoided in the schedule as it is not cost-effective. In addition, e-buses should begin and end a day of operation at their base depots. Based on the unique route configurations in Shenzhen, the above two requirements add further constraint to the form of feasible schedules and make the e-bus scheduling problem more difficult. We call these two requirements the vehicle relocation constraint. This paper addresses a multi-depot e-bus scheduling problem considering the vehicle relocation constraint and partial charging. A mixed integer programming model is formulated with the aim to minimize the operational cost. A Large Neighborhood Search (LNS) heuristic is devised with novel destroy-and-repair operators to tackle the vehicle relocation constraint. Numerical experiments are conducted based on multi-route operation cases in Shenzhen to verify the model and effectiveness of the LNS heuristic. A few insights are derived on the decision of battery capacity, charging rate and deployment of the charging infrastructure.
