The \n                \n                \u003cem\u003eHandbook of Transportation  Science\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                 has collected and synthesized this research into a  systematic treatment of this field covering its fundamental concepts,  methods, and principles. The purpose of this handbook is to define  transportation as a scientific discipline that transcends  transportation technology and methods. Whether by car, truck, airplane  - or by a mode of transportation that has not yet been  conceived - transportation obeys fundamental properties. The  science of transportation defines these properties, and demonstrates  how our knowledge of one mode of transportation can be used to explain  the behavior of another. \n                \n                \u003cbr\u003e\n                                  Transportation scientists are motivated by the desire to explain  spatial interactions that result in movement of people or objects from  place to place. Its methodologies draw from physics, operations  research, probability and control theory. It is fundamentally a  quantitative discipline, relying on mathematical models and  optimization algorithms to explain the phenomena of transportation.  The fourteen chapters in the handbook are written by the leading  researchers in transportation science in an effort to define and  categorize for the first time the scientific nature and state of the  art of the field. As such, it is directed to the broader research  community, transportation practitioners, and future transportation  scientists.\n            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9780792385875\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781461373704\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9780792385875","offer_id":51370595718,"sku":"9780792385875","price":213.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Softcover - 9781461373704","offer_id":39415602610269,"sku":"9781461373704","price":213.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/13dcce21-b153-41cb-ba31-97a7f6a0f11a.jpg?v=1774674514","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/handbook-of-transportation-science-von-randolph-hall-hrsg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
