The Main Principles of Modelling the Interaction Between Transport Infrastructure Development and Economy

Abstract

The practical need of measuring the interaction between transport infrastructure development and economic growth is determined by the neccesity to justify huge invetsments in infrastructure projects. As it was established the actualify of the topic analysed is proved by many authors working in the field. However, the main shortcoming in the presented work (stress only on the relationship transport infrastructure ‐ economy expressed in the terms of additional production of GDP) is the existence of the playback between the interdependent items. Considering the practice to be cardinally inadequate in the terms of economic theory and modern attitude to ecological problems,the authors of the article present the main principles of quantitive evaluation of the aforementioned realationship taking into account overlaping links of the categories analysed.

Design, Simulation and Fabrication of an Ergonomic Handgrip for Public Transport in Bangladesh

“…After the product has been manufactured, user feedback will be gathered to assess how comfortable the new model is compared to previous iterations. Public transport system is struggling to cope with the current travel demand Abidi and Sharma [3] Due to poor travelling facilities 23 % people have to leave their job opportunities Kett et al [4] Transport-related problems are among the most commonly faced issues by PWDs Almada and Renner [5] The main problems with public transport was the lack of trained employees to help PWDs with wheel chairs Isa et al [6] Certain train stations were inaccessible to PWDs due to poor planning, design, and maintenance Harbering and Schlüter [7] Females use public transport more often than their counter parts Indriyani and Sahroni [8] Decrease of high-range of the handgrip in women carriage is needed Obelenis [9] Musculoskeletal disorders are closely related to poor transport ergonomic conditions Escalona [10] The presence of risk factors that could explain the skeletal muscle disorders in upper limbs, shoulders and neck was confirmed Njoh [11] Investment in transportation is capable of stimulating economic growth Jurkauskas and Prunskienë [12] The concept of sustainable growth in both economy and transport sector must be analyzed in terms of sustainability Conto-Campis et al [13] Handgrips in public transport are not at an adequate height which cause hand stretch and risk of falling. Ulrich and Schnarch methodologies can be used to solve this Grant et al [14] Different diameters have different manual efforts and there is relationship between handle size and anthropometric dimension.…”

“…Comments from participants in different age brackets further enriched the feedback. A participant from the younger age group (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) highlighted, "This design looks modern and feels like it's designed for the younger generation. It's not just about aesthetics; it genuinely provided better support."…”

Forecasts of Petroleum Demand

“…When analyzing transport infrastructure, a firm relation is found with the development level of state economy, which plays a significant role in the development of transport plans in any country [2][3][4][5]. Interplay [4] of economy and transport in the analyzed region may be described in differential equations, depending on Gross Domestic Product (GDP), technology development level, labour force, private capital size, number of transport means, etc. To have analytical values of these indicators is possible only theoretically, however, practically, such overall statistics is not recorded (for example, in Lithuania) and to calculate directly the impact of transport on GDP or its reverse size is rather complicated.…”

Qualitative Analysis of the Knowledge of Applicants to Transport Engineering Courses of Study

“…Now, the economic development is hardly possible without an effective transport system (providing both national and international transportation). The operation of industrial construction and agricultural enterprises as well as work efficiency and public opinion largely depend on reliability and effective performance of transport [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”

“…The main goals of transport development are: the increase of volume of transportation and the improvement of quality of transport services ensuring safe traffic and transportation of goods and passengers [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. To solve these problems, a comprehensive approach, taking into account the capacities of all parts of transport system, should be used.…”
