Horizontally the support was achieved by a rigid for frame-like structures such as track panels or shear steel structure fixed to the ground and directly acting on the sleepers to ensure evenly distributed forces in both rails. Loading was applied through two hydraulic cylinders fixed to the same rigid structure and to the clamp on the tie. Online measurements of forces (load cells) and dis- placement (linear variable differential transformer) were performed together with discrete position measurements of the whole structure using the tachymeter based optical system QDaedalus developed at the Institute of Geodesy and Photogrammetry of ETH Zurich.

The measured force-displacement data is evaluated using Timoshenko beam theory. As shown in Figure 3 the track can be divided into two sections: (i) The middle section where pure bending occurs, and (ii) the sections between support and loading point where combined bending and Fig. 2: Experimental setup of four-point bending test.

Commercial Urban Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have also undergone testing and some were recently used to transport small sized goods. Additionally, encouraged by the fast paced technological development certain entities are already developing aerial vehicles (called Personal Aerial Vehicles –PAVs) and systems that will move people in urban settings (two examples of these vehicles can be seen in Figures 5 and 6). The opportunities and disrup- tive effects that this innovation in the transportation system might bring are vast and they need to be analyzed.

We have taken a first glimpse at the potential demand for urban air mobility in the region of Zurich, Switzerland us- ing MATSim (Horni et al., 2016). Preliminary results on the demand, with some carefully taken assumptions can be seen in Figure 7. We observed how different technologies (vertical speed, cruising speed) could impact the demand, as at the moment it is not certain what type of vehicles would be offered in this kind of service. In addition, we assume that users will have to move to the vehicle rather than vehicle moving towards them when requested, thus different access times scenarios are investigated. With the high price (5.1chf/ km) the demand is not dramatic and highly dependent on the vertical and cruising speed of vehicles. This tells us that system performance parameters will be crucial for the de- mand estimation and that interaction of different areas of research is germane. Fig. 7: Demand for PAVs in Zurich region.

As the result, the fusion method becomes independent of the distribution of probe vehicles, substantially reducing the error on the estimated speed of cars and outperforming the FCD-based estimation method. This makes the proposed fusion algorithm a very robust and promising framework for assessing the perfor- mance of multi-modal traffic.
