The nature and extent of interactions between the distant regions and cultures of Mesoamerica remain open to much debate. Close economic and political ties developed between Teotihuacan and the lowland Maya during the Early Classic period (AD 250-550), yet the relationship between these cultures continues to perplex scholars. This article presents an elaborately painted altar from an elite residential group at the lowland Maya centre of Tikal, Guatemala. Dating to the fifth century AD, the altar is unique in its display of Teotihuacan architectural and artistic forms, adding to evidence not only for cultural influence during this period, but also for an active Teotihuacan presence at Tikal.

One of the dangers that threatens human life in today's world is the occurrence of earthquakes. Learning from the past and using the experiences of our predecessors has always led to human progress. Learning from earthquakes that have recently occurred near us in the world can help us improve and be more precise in the design and construction of structures. Concrete structures are considered one of the most popular structures in the world. In this research, by examining the performance of concrete structures in the 2020 Izmir earthquake in Turkey in three sections: examination of concrete foundations, examination of concrete skeletons, and examination of concrete bridges, we tried to identify their strengths and weaknesses and understand the cause of their failure or proper performance against earthquakes, so that we can use this earthquake as a practical experience in the design and construction of concrete structures. The examination of the observed failures, along with a photographic report taken from the accident site, has been evaluated and can show us a real example of the effect of improper design and construction. The analyses and results show that most of the damage is due to excessive corrosion in reinforced concrete sections, high depth and stiffness of beams, large openings in concrete slabs, lack of use of infill walls, incorrect rebar placement, and poor design of corner columns and ground floor columns of buildings.

This paper aims to adopt a critical stance on the relevance and interpretation of the recently emerging concepts of resilience and vulnerability in transportation studies. It makes a clear distinction between engineering and ecological interpretations of these concepts and offers a systematic typology of various studies in this field. A core element in the study is the linkage between the aforementioned concepts and connectivity/accessibility in transport networks. The methodological findings in the study are put in perspective by addressing also such concepts as robustness, reliability and friability of transport systems.

As a Euro-Mediterranean energy center for natural gas, Italy wants to strengthen its regional geo-economic power towards Africa, but also to be better than Greece, Spain and Turkey in the regional Mediterranean competition. Italy can exert direct influence in two areas in particular: the "elongated" Mediterranean (the Mediterranean basin and the African continent, which includes the steppe-savanna belt in North Africa between the dry Sahara in the north and the humid savannas in the south, the so-called Sahel) and the European union.

Značajan razvoj turizma u posljednjem desetljeću pozitivno se odrazio na razvoj prometne infrastrukture u Republici Hrvatskoj, posebice cestovne i zračne. Danas Hrvatsku s ostatkom Europe i svijeta povezuje 1.300 km autocesta i čak sedam međunarodnih zračnih luka, od kojih su redom najveće, prema broju putnika, smještene u neposrednoj blizini Zagreba, Splita i Dubrovnika. Radi stalnog porasta zračnog prometa u posljednjih je nekoliko godina pokrenuto niz visokovrijednih investicija u planiranje i provedbu radova na proširenju i modernizaciji luka u cilju povećanja njihova kapaciteta. Ipak, razvoj zračnih luka nije popraćen istovremenim razvojem sustava javnih prometnih veza s gradovima odnosno regijama koje one opslužuju, a koje su jednako važan čimbenik za redovito odvijanje i konkurentnost zračnog drugim granama prometa. Te su veze danas ostvarene isključivo cestovnim prometnicama čiji kapaciteti u vršnim satima, zbog specifičnosti okruženja u kojima se luke nalaze, već danas nisu...

In an emergency like an urban fire, road accident, or critical condition of patients, the shortest possible route to reach the destination is one of the most sought-after issues in transportation studies. However, the physical distance of the shortest route becomes longer distance than the travel time distance due to traffic congestion in metropolitan cities like that of Kolkata. So, the selection of an alternative route is essential to organize the journey logically. A well-structured road network provides multiple options to road users for selection of the best route from the shortest and alternative route according to their demand. So, the present study aims to identify the structural characteristics of road networks by graph theory and the selection of the best route using the GIS technique. It has been found that the road network of Kolkata is characterized by complex structure and grid configuration of the network. Selection of the best route also ranges from the shortest route to alternative route due to spatial variation of traffic speed on different roads in peak hours. The current study identifies the optimal route in terms of travel time to reach the required destinations during peak hour duration in the city of Kolkata

Nuestros resultados muestran que imponer un servicio minimo para las conexiones menos beneficiosas no solo mejora el bienestar total y el del consumidor, sino que no dana a las empresas, puesto que potencia la conectividad y la demanda total en la red. En ausencia de tal restriccion de servicio minimo, las companias que se no reconocen lo beneficioso de crear una red ferroviaria completa dejan algunas conexiones desprovistas, lo que conlleva una reduccion en la demanda total de pasajeros.

Les treize îles du Ponant (façade Manche et Atlantique) sont reliées quotidiennement par un système de transport maritime. La desserte insulaire remplit une double fonction essentielle pour ces territoires : assurer la continuité territoriale et favoriser la fréquentation touristique. La thèse porte sur l’organisation de la desserte et ses conséquences sur l’entreprise insulaire. Dans un premier temps, les observations de terrain et les enquêtes auprès de quatorze compagnies maritimes et aériennes et de six autorités délégantes du service public montrent une très grande diversité des liaisons entre îles et continent. L’hétérogénéité du système (acteurs, situation de marché, financement, emplois) et des dispositifs de liaison (flotte, manutention, consistance de service, tarification, port) révèle l’adaptation de la desserte au territoire. L’analyse de l’activité de transport de passagers et de fret souligne la saisonnalité des flux et leur déséquilibre entre import et export. Dans u...

Zracni promet tereta (Cargo) u svjetskim relacijama nije znacajan kolicinski, ali vrijednosno predstavlja 35% ukupnog Cargo svjetskog prometa. To iznosi oko 60 milijardi US$ financijske realizacije. Direktno ili indirektno zracni Cargo promet osigurava oko 32 milijuna radnih mjesta u svijetu. Sve to cini ga znacajnim segmentom svjetske ekonomije. Zracna luka Zagreb (ZLZ) dugorocno ostvaruje preko 85% ukupnog zracnog Cargo prometa Hrvatske. To znaci da je odgovornost za razvoj ovog segmenta zracnog prometa na ZLZ. Sukladno tome ZLZ je utvrdila tri strateske smjernica razvoja ovog segmenta poslovanja: 1) razvoj tehnologije, 2) razvoj mreže redovitih zrakoplovnih linija iz/za Zagreb i 3) razvoj infrastrukture. U ovom radu težiste je na prikazu mogucnosti osiguravanja trece strateske smjernice, razvoju infrastrukture, sto se želi rijesiti kroz realizaciju projekta Zagreb Airport Cargo City (ZACCP).

Development of new methods in seismic analysis and increasing application of performance based seismic design necessitate the study of the seismic performance of structures designed based on Iranian regulations. In this study the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames designed based on the tenth code of the Iranian national building regulations is investigated. Frames are different in number of stories, seismic loads, span length and gravity loads. Fragility curves of the frames are depicted for different performance objectives and their seismic vulnerabilities are examined. Results indicates that satisfying life safety performance level would ensure the proper performance of frames for other performance levels and also the performance of taller frames is more critical than shorter frames.

Los centros de datos del Ministerio del Interior cubano intentan emplear técnicas de replicación para asegurar la información que almacenan. Desafortunadamente, las técnicas no pueden aplicarse porque la red que conecta a los centros es común a otros nodos y se satura rápidamente con la nueva carga introducida. Como solución, se propone la implementación de una red dedicada DWDM con tres dispositivos HUAWEI OptiX OSN 3800. La variante fue desplegada satisfactoriamente y proporciona 1GB de bajada y subida en cada conexión, además de ser fácilmente escalable y de aprovechar el tendido de fibra existente.

Corridor Vc on the route of Budapest-Osijek-Sarajevo-Ploče is the link between Northern, Central and Southern Europe and represents an exceptional value in the context of the process of economic and transport integration of Central European region. Through this transport corridor, the Central European area is linked to the Adriatic Sea and represents a major priority in the construction of the road infrastructure of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The importance and the "potential" of Corridor VC is shown through data that says that 56% of the total population of the country lives in this transport axis in Bosnia and Herzegovina. If the national component is taken into consideration, the traffic route Vc links the largest sections of the population of the Croat population in BiH, Posavina-Central Bosnia-Herzegovina. A stronger transport links between these regions and Croatia, as well as other countries, will be very important for the socioeconomic development and geo-economic relations in the region. The construction of the entire transport corridor opens the possibility of inclusion in the main European traffic flows, and in the global European economic system.

Zračni promet najbrža je i najsloženija prometna grana za prijevoz ljudi i robe. Poseban značaj istog očituje se u razvoju globalne ekonomije i poboljšanju društvenog stanja. Zbog deregulacije i liberalizacije zračnog tržišta, zračni promet svake godine bilježi sve veće stope rasta kako na svjetskoj tako i na domaćoj razini. Jedan od najvažnijih čimbenika koji utječu na rast i razvoj zračnog prometa je razvoj turizma. Shodno tome, može se reći da je upravo turizam zaslužan za rast i razvoj zračnog prometa u Hrvatskoj s obzirom da je Hrvatska turistički orijentirana zemlja. No, zbog sezonalnog razvoja turizma dolazi do značajnih oscilacija i visokog stupnja sezonalnosti potražnje za uslugama u zračnom prometu što je posebno izraženo u obalnim zračnim lukama. Fokus ovog rada usmjeren je na vodeće dvije obalne zračne luke – Split i Dubrovnik koje se prema veličini prometa nalaze odmah iza najveće hrvatske zračne luke „Međunarodne zračne luke Franjo Tuđman“. Glavni cilj je bio napraviti...

PurposeTransport infrastructure resilience is of paramount importance for societies, therefore its quantification is urgently needed. A resilience assessment framework based on well-informed resilience indices is presented and applied for assessing the resilience of representative bridges exposed to earthquakes.Design/methodology/approachThe framework quantifies the robustness of bridges against different seismic hazard scenarios, by using realistic fragility functions and the rapidity of the recovery and/or retrofitting after the occurrence of a certain degree of damage, based on realistic restoration functions.FindingsTwo different approaches for the modeling of the restoration tasks are examined. Both direct losses due to structural damage and indirect losses due to traffic disruption are estimated.Originality/valueA new cost-based resilience index is introduced and alternate approaches for expressing the restoration strategies are examined and assessed. The results facilitate ow...

Intermodal transport is often considered as alternative approach regarding to congestion caused by road freight transport while its implementation in practice in most cases refers to the long distances (over 300 km). Until recently research did not pay much attention to the connection between intermodal (road-rail) transport and urban distribution, relying on a fact that intermodal transport is not achievable at distances less than 300 km. This paper will explore the possibility to develop the concept of intercity intermodal distribution at short distance as well as preconditions for the development of this concept. Intention is to show that the cooperation between intermodal transport and urban distribution is possible. By using case studies, process of intercity intermodal distribution will be described, which will lead to a conclusion regarding the future development of the concept of intercity intermodal distribution.

Robno transportni centar predstavlja mjesto na kojem se pristupa realizaciji logističkih aktivnosti. Ovisno o namjeni robno-transportnog centra, odnosno njegovoj funkciji u logističkoj mreži, robno transportni centar mora biti opremljen odgovarajućom infrastrukturom. Prilikom planiranja izgradnje robno transportnog centra potrebno je detaljno analizirati elemente koji utječu na odabir lokacije tog centra. Odabir optimalne mikrolokacije robnotransportnog centra uzrokuje dobru iskoristivost i održivost centra, te utječe na daljnji razvoj u smislu pružanja logističkih usluga. Gravitacijska zona robno-transportnog centra je geografski prostor djelovanja tog centra, odnosno prostor na kojem centar privlači i disperzira logističke, odnosno robne tokove. Za odabir optimalne mikrolokacije i daljnji razvoj gravitacijske zone analiziraju se elementi gospodarskog razvoja, a njih čine prirodni i društveni čimbenici.

This research surveys and adds to the numerous modern reasons given for the decline of the Khmer Empire after Jayavarman VII. The work highlights new evidence indicating that severe climate change directly affected the Khmer Empire after 1200, and examines how the biological factors and impact of disease related to this climate change would have been critical in undermining and degrading the Khmer population. Using primary sources and inferential evidence on disease, the intent of the study is to build on the established and generally accepted assumptions for the collapse of the Khmer Empire, including to explain that localized, severe, and long-term climate fluctuations were a problem for the Khmer, and, most importantly, to show that climate change, as it encouraged and was related to epidemics and diseases, is what significantly attrited the Angkorian population.

The present work aims to reconstruct and interpret the urban fabric of the main cities in Spain in order to understand their urbanisation processes during the 19 th and 20 th centuries. Using the technological innovations that took place during this period, these cities escaped the confines of their walls and spread outwards in a process that saw the sustained growth of transport networks and urban services. The main objective of this research is to interpret this phenomenon and to classify it in terms of its geographical, demographic, political and regional characteristics. The approach followed is based on the compilation of historical urban maps, and also other documentary sources, which have allowed us to continuously map urban growth through Historical Geographic Information System (HGIS). The sources used are essentially primary and have been obtained from historical cartographic archives, map libraries and digital map collections. Vectorization tools have become an essential part of this work, as they allow us to obtain homogeneous and comparable shapefiles over periods of many years. They are used to describe the different techniques available and to justify the approach chosen based on the documentary sources available. This approach involves the construction of a homogeneous database for the whole of Spain, which it will also be possible to use for other studies and related applications. The present research group has already carried out similar work focused on different regions of Spain. It also has experience of working with complementary data on population, GDP and transport infrastructure for the whole of Europe, with this undoubtedly providing a great incentive to continue developing this type of database. Adding new variables to the study should help to create increasingly comprehensive models and help us to understand the evolutionary dynamics of Spain, and Europe in future stages of the project.

Changes that have occurred in the container shipping market over the last few decades have resulted from trends present in the international markets of goods and services, as well as from newly introduced markets and new container transportation and/or loading/unloading technologies. Coastal container liner shipping usually represents the initial and the terminal segment in the container liner shipping cycle. Operational and technological processes in the maritime container shipping have become a common practice and any deviation from the usual practice consequently affects shipowners’ operation in the coastal container liner shipping.

Značenje multimodalnog, intermodalnog i kombiniranog prijevoza u razvoju pomorskih prometnica Sažetak Svjetska i domaća literatura poznaje mnogo pojmova koji se vezuju za prijevoz tereta s više od jednim načinom prijevoza (pomorski, željeznički, unutarnji plovni putovi, cestovni, zračni), a najčešći su multimodalni, višenačinski, kombinirani, intermodalni, integralni i komodalni. Mnogi autori su kroz povijest davali različita objašnjenja navedenih pojmova, ali još i danas postoji određena konfuzija u značenju i njihovu definiranju. Nepostojanje originalne i jednoznačne definicije je i razumljivo s obzirom da se takav način prijevoza stalno razvija, mijenja u tehničkom, tehnološkom, pravnom i administrativnom (logističkom) smislu te da su autori pokušali dati pojašnjenja koja su tada predstavljala stvarnost. Osnovni cilj istraživanja u ovom radu je u doprinos definiranju značenja pojmova i sintagmi multimodalni, intermodalni prijevoz, kombinirani, međuobalno prometno povezivanje i pomorske prometnice. Autori drže da je za jasno razumijevanje navedenih pojmova i sintagmi nužno analizirati definicije Europske komisije, Međunarodnog foruma za transport, Konvencije UN-a o međunarodnom multimodalnom transportu robe i korištene definicije istaknutih hrvatskih stručnjaka iz prometa.

Crisis management planners for natural disaster-prone areas are looking for pre- and post-hazard decisions to reduce the consequences and bring the city back to normal as soon as possible. The intra-city transportation network, as one of the most vulnerable arteries, has a strategic role in the city's reversibility. Thus, effective tools are needed to identify this role in the event of a natural disaster.
In this research, a model has been developed under GIS with the help of which the performance of the urban road network can be investigated after the earthquake with the help of Bayesian algorithm. This model can determine the damage caused by a seismic event, including the collapse of buildings and adjacent bridges in any path that leads to the blockage of the route and the probability of blockage of the routes. In this method, different earthquake scenarios in which different sources of uncertainties in the spatial and temporal distribution of earthquakes are considered, are applied to the study area. Damage to buildings and bridges in the area, along with various seismic damage control factors of the road network, has been estimated. The performed analyses have led to the production of maps of the possibility of obstruction of the existing routes in the road network for different cases of obstruction (no obstruction, low, medium, high). These maps show the condition of the roads immediately after the earthquake. By examining the results of this research, we will found out the very complex situation of roadblocks in the city of Babol, and by conducting such analyzes and producing these maps for possible future earthquakes, the weaknesses of transportation network can easily be spotted by city managers, and authorities will be assisted to improve the network effectively while finding a suitable route for relief and help. Moreover, the results can be used in planning for the return of the city to its original state after a possible earthquake.

The paper explores the possibility for a connection between Rijeka and Trieste by rail, which would at the same time directly connect Istrian railway lines with the rest of the Croatian lines. The construction of a new line would have a major influence on completing the Mediterranean corridor in the territory of Slovenia and Croatia. Besides its local and regional role, the new railway line would play an important part in international transport as well. The paper especially stresses the need for establishing a multimodal corridor between the northern Adriatic ports of Trieste, Koper and Rijeka with the Danube River and the Black Sea. It is not possible to establish this corridor without constructing a new Rijeka-Trieste railway line.

This paper reflects on port development in Uruguay in an environment of trilateral interport competition. The regional characteristics of port development in terms of their geographical, functional and operational characteristics are discussed by analysing the port system's evolution. The case of Montevideo as the success or failure of a regional hub port development strategy is analysed in detail. Particular attention is given to the evolution and impact of the liner shipping service network in defining the role of a port within a regional port system. Further, the evolution of the port of Montevideo in terms of institutional and organisational and the related strategy are described, with focus on the effect on transhipment cargo in the port. The main findings are twofold. First, port development in Montevideo been driven proactively and under a clear strategy, but still faces a number of challenges. Second, economies of scale in transport, port infrastructure and connectivity are important determinants of port development, of which the latter is principally driven by external actors, the shipping lines. The paper shows that despite strong efforts Uruguay and its principal port Montevideo are highly dependent on external factors, particularly the level of connectivity, in their strategy to develop Montevideo as a regional hub. Thus the findings are relevant in relation to the discussion of Montevideo's development potentials as a hub on South America's East Coast in particular and the effects of external influences on port development from in general.
