FOREWORD At the time of my election as President at the end of 2004, one year after the Durban Congress, I outlined five major challenges facing PIARC in the current cycle. It is timely in this 2004-2007 Activity Report to take stock of our progress in addressing these challenges. Firstly, we have maintained the momentum in the excellent work of our nineteen Technical Committees. Their Activity Reports included in this document demonstrate the richness, variety and developing trends in today’s road transport. They will contribute greatly to our ability to make improved choices for sustainable transport – the theme of this XXIIIrd World Road Congress in Paris. The work of the Technical Committees over the last four years has focused on four broad areas, corresponding to the four Strategic Themes under PIARC’s Third Strategic Plan: good governance and administration, sustainable mobility, safe and efficient operations and appropriate infrastructure. As we finalise the Fourth PIARC Strategic Plan to guide our work over the next four year cycle, these four broad areas are likely to continue, but with some changes of emphasis within each of them. Secondly, we have enhanced the effectiveness of information gathering, dissemination and exchange, in large part by increasingly embracing electronic media. The structure and format of technical reports have been strengthened and unified, and these reports are now available free on the internet. The Routes/Roads magazine has been revamped to a more attractive and readable format and the dissemination of Technical Committees’ work throughout the cycle has been significantly improved through the increased delivery of seminars. There is also greater use of National Committees for gathering and disseminating information. Thirdly, we have raised the profile of PIARC and involvement in its activities in developing countries and countries in economic transition, largely through the seminar program. Most Technical Committees have held two seminars during the last four years; most of these have been held in developing countries and countries in economic transition, and have been well received, attracting audiences from neighbouring countries as well as from the host country. However, our experience with the first few technology transfer centres has been mixed. As a result, we

  • Möbius Bridges
    { Final version for JMA - Nov 2, 2017 } Möbius Bridges Carlo H. Séquin CS Division, University of California, Berkeley E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Key concepts and geometrical constraints are discussed that allow the construction of a usable bridge that is topological equivalent to a Möbius band. A multi-year search in publications and on the internet for real-world bridges that meet these requirements has not identified a single clean construction that warrants the designation “Möbius bridge,” but a few promising designs can be found. Several simple but practical designs are presented here. 1. Introduction July 2017 marks the twentieth installment of the annual Bridges conference [1], which elucidates the connections between mathematics and art, music, architecture, and many other cultural venues. This year the conference has been held in Waterloo, Canada. In its twenty-year history it has visited many places around the globe, including Seoul in South Korea, Coimbra in Portugal, Pécz in Hungary, and Leeuwarden in the Netherlands, the hometown of M.C. Escher. This conference series got started by Reza Sarhangi [2] at Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas. After a few occurrences at this initial location, Reza Sarhangi and other core members of this conference started discussing the possibility of establishing some kind of a commemorative entity of the conference on the Winfield campus. Since Escher, Möbius, and Klein are among the heroes of this Math-Art community, suggestions included an Escher Garden, a Möbius Bridge, or a Klein Bottle House. This prompted me to study the feasibility of such entities; and over the following year, I developed some practical designs for bridges and buildings that follow the geometry of a Möbius band [3].

  • Bridges: a World Community for Mathematical Art
    Accepted manuscript for The Mathematical Intelligencer, ISSN: 0343-6993 (print version) ISSN: 1866-7414 (electronic version) The final publication is available at Springer via http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 DOI 10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 Bridges: A World Community for Mathematical Art Kristóf Fenyvesi Mathematical Art Reborn: Academic Gathering or Festival of the Arts? This is not the first time the Mathematical Communities column has featured the Bridges Organization: the 2005 conference1, in the breathtaking Canadian Rocky Mountains at Banff, was described in these pages by Doris Schattschneider [Schattschneider, 2006], a regular Bridges participant and Escher-specialist. The 2005 conference saw the debut of Delicious Rivers, Ellen Maddow’s play on the life of Robert Ammann, a postal worker who discovered a number of aperiodic tilings.2 Marjorie Senechal, The Mathematical Intelligencer’s current editor-in-chief, served as Maddow's consultant.3 A theatre premiér at a conference on mathematics? A production performed by mathematicians, moonlighting as actors? But this is Bridges. A quick look at the 2005 conference relays the “essence” of this scientific and artistic “happening” resembling a first-rate festival of the arts. True to its title, Renaissance Banff, the 2005 Bridges gave all members of its community, whether based in the sciences or the arts, the feeling that they had helped bring about a genuine rebirth. I use “community” in its most complete sense—including adults, children, artists, university professors, art lovers and local people—for the wealth of conference activities could only be accomplished through the participation of each and every individual present.

  • A Solution of Traffic Congestion for Ko Chang Piers Through Applying Access Fee
    Article A Solution of Traffic Congestion for Ko Chang Piers through Applying Access Fee Yanisa Techaphoositthiponga and Siradol Siridharab,* The Cluster of Logistics and Rail Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Mahidol University, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand E-mail: [email protected], b,*[email protected] (Corresponding author) Abstract. Ko Chang, one of the main island attractions of Thailand, is suffering from congestion at its ferry piers due to the great flocks of tourists. Due to the low vehicle- carrying capacity of the ferry, the bottlenecks are observed especially over long weekends. Over volume of private cars that are cause of negative impact to tourist destination is overtourism phenomenon. The problem could be alleviated if the tourists could be encouraged to park their cars at the main land piers and walk on to the ferry. This study aims to find out the Thai tourist mode choice preference and develops a binary logit model with its objective to alleviate the congestion via the demand management strategies. The results show that the monetary cost and wait time in the queue are the primary and secondary factors affecting the tourist’s decision. It is also shown that almost half of the tourists would leave their cars on the mainland if 500-baht charge is applied with the 3 hour wait. Keywords: Mode choice model, binary logit model, park-and-ride, public transport, logistics tourism, overtourism.
