Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19 on Mobility:
The pandemic has significantly influenced research themes, with many studies focusing on how COVID-19 has reshaped commuting patterns, public transport usage, and mobility behavior, emphasizing the need for adaptive strategies in transport planning. - Integration of Mobility and Accessibility for Disabled Persons:
There is a growing emphasis on the mobility needs of disabled individuals, highlighting accessibility issues and proposing solutions to improve transportation systems for all user groups. - Electrification and Sustainable Transport Technologies:
Recent papers increasingly discuss the challenges and impacts of integrating electric buses and other sustainable technologies into existing transport systems, reflecting a broader trend towards sustainable urban mobility. - Gender Perspectives in Transport Studies:
An emerging theme is the exploration of gender dimensions in transportation, examining how different genders experience mobility and the implications for transport policy and planning. - Urban Walkability and Public Spaces:
There is a notable increase in research addressing urban walkability and the design of public spaces, focusing on how these factors influence mobility patterns and community well-being.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Infrastructure Studies:
Research focusing solely on traditional infrastructure development, such as roads and bridges, has decreased, possibly due to a shift towards more integrated and sustainable approaches to mobility. - Purely Economic Analyses of Transportation:
Studies that analyze transportation primarily from an economic perspective, without considering social or environmental factors, have become less frequent, indicating a broader recognition of the need for interdisciplinary approaches. - Static Studies of Commuting Patterns:
There seems to be a waning interest in static analyses of commuting patterns, with a shift towards more dynamic studies that incorporate changing mobility behaviors, particularly in response to recent global events like the COVID-19 pandemic.
