Exploring the Use of Operational Interventions in Water Distribution Systems to Reduce the Formation of TTHMs
Abstract Trihalomethanes (TTHMs) are water disinfection by-products whose consumption via drinking water may eventually be harmful for human health, as they could have carcinogenic effects, also for the exposure to them via non-ingestion routes [1]. ...

Network-based model for predicting the effect of fuel price on transit ridership and greenhouse gas emissions
Abstract As fuel prices increase, drivers may make travel choices to minimize not only travel time, but also fuel consumption. Consideration of fuel consumption would affect route choice and influence trip frequency and mode choice. For instance,...
