Call For Papers - CFP

Topics of interest for submission include any topics related to:

1. Transportation Infrastructure Design

This area focuses on the physical "bones" of transport systems, where structural integrity meets architectural form.

Bridges and Tunnels:

Structural Typologies (Suspension, Cable-stayed, Arch).

Subsurface Engineering and Boring Machines.

Aesthetic Integration into Urban Landscapes.

Transit Hubs:

Railway Station Architecture.

Airport Terminal Planning (Concourse geometry, Gate logic).

Intermodal Transfer Centers (Connecting bus, rail, and bike).

Pavement and Track Engineering:

Material Science (High-performance concrete, asphalt).

Railway Ballast and Sleeper Design.

2. Urban Planning and Transit-Oriented Development (TOD)

This explores how transportation shapes the way cities are built and how people live.

TOD Principles:

High-density Zoning around Transit Nodes.

Mixed-use Development (Residential over Commercial).

Walkability and "Last Mile" Connectivity.

Streetscape Design:

Complete Streets (Balancing cars, bikes, and pedestrians).

Traffic Calming Measures (Chicanes, Speed Tables).

Public Realm and Green Infrastructure.

3. Traffic Engineering and Systems Analysis

The mathematical and technical side of managing movement.

Traffic Flow Theory:

Capacity Analysis and Level of Service (LOS).

Queuing Theory and Bottleneck Analysis.

Signalization and Control:

Adaptive Signal Control Technology (ASCT).

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).

Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) Communication.

Safety Engineering:

Geometric Design of Highways (Horizontal and Vertical Curves).

Crash Prediction Modeling and Road Audits.

4. Sustainable and Future Mobility

Focusing on reducing the carbon footprint of transport through design and technology.

Active Transportation:

Bicycle Superhighways and Protected Lanes.

Pedestrianization of Urban Centers.

Electric and Autonomous Vehicles (EV/AV):

Charging Infrastructure Integration in Architecture.

Impact of Self-driving Cars on Parking Garage Design.

Mass Transit Innovation:

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Systems.

High-Speed Rail (HSR) Corridors.

Hyperloop and Maglev Concepts.

5. Transportation Logistics and Freight

The "hidden" architecture of moving goods.

Logistics Hubs:

Warehouse and Distribution Center Architecture.

Port and Maritime Engineering.

Intermodal Freight Terminals (Rail-to-Truck).

Urban Freight:

Micro-fulfillment Centers.

Delivery Drone Launchpads and Vertiports.

6. Environmental and Social Impact

The ethical and ecological considerations of engineering and design.

Environmental Engineering:

Noise and Vibration Mitigation.

Stormwater Management (Permeable Pavement).

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Infrastructure.

Human Factors and Accessibility:

Universal Design (ADA Compliance).

Wayfinding and Environmental Graphics.

Psychology of Commuting and User Experience (UX).
