Transport Planning and Mobility in Urban East Africa
This book critically explores the relationship between mobility patterns, transport provision and urban development in East African cities. Bringing together contributions on the futures of mobility in urban East Africa, the chapters examine transport provision, mobility patterns, location-specific modes of transport and transformative factors for transport and mobility in the rapidly urbanising region.The book outlines different mobility needs to be addressed in transport planning to serve and shape the respective cities and examines the decision-making process in transport planning and the level of accountability to the public.The contributors show the dialectic between innovation in transport/mobility and urban development under rapid urbanisation and discusses how to practically integrate mobility and transport provision into urban development. This book will be of interest to scholars in urban planning, transport planning, transport geography, social sciences and African studies.

Mumbai on Two Wheels : Cycling, Urban Space, and Sustainable Mobility
Cyclists from India reimagine transportation infrastructure for allMumbai is not commonly seen as a bike-friendly city because of its dense traffic and the absence of bicycle lanes.Yet the city supports rapidly expanding and eclectic bicycle communities.Exploring how people bike and what biking means in the city, Jonathan Shapiro Anjaria challenges assumptions that underlie sustainable transportation planning.Arguing that planning professionals and advocates need to pay closer attention to ordinary people who cycle for transportation or for work, or who choose to cycle for recreation, Mumbai on Two Wheels offers an alternative to the thinking that dominates mainstream sustainable transportation discussions.The book’s insights come from bicycle activists, commuters, food delivery workers, event organizers, planners, technicians, shop owners, and architects.Through ethnographic vignettes and descriptions of diverse biking experiences, it shows how pedaling through the city produces a way of seeing and understanding infrastructure.Readers will come away with a new perspective on what makes a city bicycle friendly and an awareness that lessons for a more equitable and sustainable urban future can be found in surprising places.

Urban Air Mobility : Intelligent, Safe and Sustainable Systems for Future Transportation
This book is a resource for engineers and researchers to develop intelligent, safe, and sustainable systems for urban air mobility.In recent years, the growth of the world’s urban population has increased tremendously, and it is predicted that by 2040, 70% of the world population will be living in an urban setting.Existing ground transportation will be unable to cope with such an expansion, especially as congestion and over-crowding becomes more common.An answer may be found with the advent of recent technologies such as urban air mobility, which may play a vital role in providing solutions for public transportation. The impact of modelling, analysis and application of intelligent algorithms is very much at the core of the design and implementation of Urban Air Mobility.The various chapters are configured to address the challenges in modelling, analysis, navigation, traffic control, battery efficiency, safety and security in terms of Artificial intelligence techniques.

A U-Turn to the Future : Sustainable Urban Mobility since 1850
From local bike-sharing initiatives to overhauls of transport infrastructure, mobility is one of the most important areas in which modern cities are trying to realize a more sustainable future.Yet even as politicians and planners look ahead, there remain critical insights to be gleaned from the history of urban mobility and the unsustainable practices that still impact our everyday lives.United by their pursuit of a “usable past,” the studies in this interdisciplinary collection consider the ecological, social, and economic aspects of urban mobility, showing how historical inquiry can make both conceptual and practical contributions to the projects of sustainability and urban renewal.

What is base load, mid-load, and peak load?
Base load refers to the minimum amount of electricity needed to meet the constant energy demand of a region, typically during off-peak hours. Mid-load refers to the intermediate level of electricity demand that falls between the base load and peak load, usually during daytime hours. Peak load refers to the maximum level of electricity demand, typically occurring during the evening when people are using more energy at home. Utilities must be able to meet all three levels of demand to ensure a reliable supply of electricity to consumers.

How do I load my train in Transport Fever 2?
To load your train in Transport Fever 2, you first need to build a station with a cargo platform. Then, you need to create a line that includes the station as a stop. After that, you can buy a train and assign it to the line. Once the train is assigned to the line, it will automatically start loading and unloading cargo at the station. Make sure the station is connected to the industry or city that produces or demands the cargo you want to transport.

Which load index?
The load index of a tire indicates the maximum weight that the tire can support. It is represented by a number that corresponds to a specific weight capacity. When selecting a tire, it is important to choose a load index that is equal to or greater than the weight of your vehicle to ensure safe and proper performance. It is recommended to consult your vehicle's manual or a tire professional to determine the appropriate load index for your specific vehicle.

Does the stream load slowly, but the ads load quickly?
Yes, it is possible for the stream to load slowly while the ads load quickly. This can happen if the streaming service prioritizes loading ads first to ensure they are displayed to the viewer promptly, while the stream itself may take longer to buffer due to various factors such as internet connection speed or server issues. This can be frustrating for viewers as they may experience interruptions or delays in watching the content they are interested in.

Is it a load-bearing or non-load-bearing wall?
Without further information or context, it is impossible to determine if the wall in question is load-bearing or non-load-bearing. Load-bearing walls are designed to support the weight of a structure, while non-load-bearing walls are primarily used for dividing spaces and do not support structural weight. It is important to consult a structural engineer or building professional to assess the specific characteristics of the wall in question to determine its load-bearing capacity.

Are electric cars sustainable?
Electric cars are generally considered more sustainable than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles because they produce zero tailpipe emissions, reducing air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. However, the sustainability of electric cars depends on how the electricity used to charge them is generated. If the electricity comes from renewable sources like wind or solar power, then electric cars can be considered truly sustainable. Additionally, the production and disposal of electric car batteries can have environmental impacts, so advancements in battery technology and recycling processes are important for the overall sustainability of electric vehicles.
