The study found that while consumers are interested in electric bikes due to benefits like environmental friendliness and health, there is still a lack of awareness about e-bikes and issues like limited infrastructure, standardization problems, and range anxiety. The report recommends improving charging systems, developing battery technology, and increasing research and development to further electric vehicles as a sustainable transportation solution in India.
This document provides an overview of electric scooters, including their history, types, and factors to consider when purchasing one. Electric scooters run on battery power rather than gas and have been in development since the late 19th century. There are various types including kick scooters, mobility scooters, electric bicycles, wheelchairs, and go-karts. When choosing a scooter, key considerations include the intended purpose, desired speed and weight capacity, features, price, and quality. Safety is also important, and using protective gear like helmets is recommended.
Hybrid bicycles blend characteristics from more specialized road bikes, touring bikes and mountain bikes. They provide a general-purpose bike that can tolerate a wide range of riding conditions and applications. Their stability, comfort and ease of use make them popular with novice cyclists, casual riders, commuters, and children. The document discusses the development of a low cost hybrid bicycle that uses a DC motor, lithium ion battery, and regenerative braking to provide electric pedal assistance up to 28kmph. It aims to provide an alternative to automobiles for medium distance travel while focusing on energy conservation.
At the end of 2019, the overall amount of electric scooters sold approximated to 4.9 million. The device uses a motor that has the potential to propagate at a speed of no more than twenty miles per hour.
E Scooters in Scandinavia and SustainabilityAqib Syed
This article describes the result on how electrical scooters and their swappable batteries have an impact on the environment. One of the leading companies, called TIER, has been selected for the analysis and exploration of the sustainability proposition. There will be an in-depth analysis of both circular and linear economies in terms of the company's perspective. The research is based on both theories from different articles, but also by an anonymous survey sent out to people.
Through the survey, it’s been observed an insight into how important sustainability and the environment are for the individual. Furthermore, the various answers in the survey stated that many chose to use electric scooters both because of accessibility, but also because of the environment. All this related to linear and circular economy, shows that TIER has thought about reuse by using reusable swappable batteries.
The conclusion that was drawn in this text is that for many, climate, environment and sustainability are important facts when it comes to everyday choices. Using recycling, instead of throwing away products, is important. Furthermore, one can then see that the survey corresponds with much of the theoretical basis.
The document provides an executive summary and introduction to a market survey report on electric bikes (e-bikes) in Pune City, India. The summary includes:
1) The report is based on a survey of people in Sinhgad road and karve road areas of Pune to understand awareness and perceptions of e-bikes and factors influencing e-bike purchases.
2) Primary data was collected through questionnaires distributed to shops and the public to analyze awareness levels and purchase factors using statistical tools like SPSS.
3) The analysis concluded that customers would purchase e-bikes if their speed and power matched gasoline bikes and maintenance costs were reasonable.
The South East of Scotland Transport Partnership is launching a regional e-bike program; GO e-Bike with the aim of increasing usage and awareness of power assisted cycling across the South East of Scotland and beyond. GO e-Bikes launches with 5 different projects in St. Andrew’s, Buckhaven, West Lothian and Falkirk and will also be encouraging employers to get involved with a ‘Try a GO e-Bike Roadshow’. GO e-Bike aims to promote a healthier more active population, reduce inequalities in our communities and improve our environment.

This document discusses the evolution of cooperative guidance and control from early human cooperation to future transportation systems. It introduces the H-Metaphor concept which models human-vehicle interaction after the relationship between a horseman and horse. The H-Metaphor defines tight and loose rein modes to delineate levels of automation. Research experiments show that failures of highly automated systems allowing for a loose rein result in better driver recovery of vehicle control than failures of fully automated systems. The document outlines ongoing work to further develop cooperative automation and shared control principles for normal operation and failure situations.
The document discusses research challenges around the impacts of automated vehicles on urban mobility. It explores how automated vehicles could impact mobility through changes in car ownership, travel behavior, and mode choice. Several studies are summarized that model how shared fleets of automated vehicles could substitute for private vehicles or integrate with public transit. Challenges are noted around simulating these complex systems and optimizing routing of shared automated vehicles. More research is still needed to fully understand how automated vehicles could transform urban transportation systems.
This document discusses lessons learned from 47 light rail projects. It finds that projects are more likely to succeed if they have a strong, independent organization; incremental planning; transparency; and citizen involvement. Failures often result from changing scope, interfaces between components, and lack of alternatives considered. The document also justifies light rail using a framework of efficiency, effectiveness, environment, economy and equity. Case studies show light rail can increase reliability and that accounting for reliability benefits is important for cost-benefit analyses, as demonstrated by a project in Utrecht.
This document summarizes a presentation on dynamic lane guidance. It discusses using intelligent transport systems for cooperation and automation through tactical driving advice provided to vehicles. This could involve providing speed, headway and lane use advice to vehicles based on real-time traffic state estimation integrating data from vehicles, roadside infrastructure and traffic management centers. The presentation examines requirements and challenges for achieving lane-level positioning accuracy needed for such advice, and shows simulation results of dynamic lane guidance systems reducing travel time delays on highways by influencing traffic flow dynamics.
The document discusses personal branding and how to develop a personal brand through social media. It explains that personal branding involves understanding who you are, sharing that identity publicly, and cultivating your personal brand over time on platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and blogs. The presentation provides tips on how to identify your brand, engage on social media, and use your online presence to advance your personal and professional goals.
The document outlines plans for the TU Delft Transport Institute, including establishing four research clusters, improving scientific quality, developing coherent transport education programs, and pursuing an integral multi-disciplinary approach. The Transport Institute aims to become a top 5 worldwide transport research organization through supporting 60+ PhD students, 200+ annual MSc graduates, and attracting funding from industry and government partners.
This document discusses bicycle dynamics and rider control. It begins by reviewing the history and evolution of bicycle models. It then describes experiments conducted with instrumented bicycles to validate the linearized dynamics equations of motion. The experiments show good agreement between measured data and the linearized model. The document explains that a bicycle can self-balance through the steering mechanism, as riders steer into a lean to accelerate the contact point laterally and counteract the fall. It presents experiments on treadmills and with motion capture that provide insights into how riders control steering and balance on a bicycle.
The document outlines a project to improve winter rail performance in the Netherlands. It discusses technical, institutional, and process complexities in dealing with winter disruptions. A catalogue is presented to systematically analyze action perspectives. The document recommends defining clear criteria for introducing alternative timetables, improving cooperation between rail operators, and sticking to priorities to improve winter rail performance.
Transport Thursday is an initiative of the TU Delft Transport Institute. Dr.ir. Hans van Lint gave a presentation on Innovations in Data Collection and Applications of Serious Gaming, all related to the field of transport. Enjoy!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
