Vehicle-based Sensing for Energy and Emission Reduction
(2021-09-30)Vehicle technologies have undergone drastic improvements in recent years, in particular sensing technologies that report a variety of vehicle and environmental conditions and control technologies that automate vehicle ... -
Improving Immersive, highly realistic in-lab, cycling experiences for analyzing active travel
(2021-09-30)In recent years, the continuous growth of private cars, the tight supply of land resources and, the continuous poor air conditions have led policy makers to advocate for sustainable public transportation. Bike sharing ... -
Using Transit Vehicles as Probes to Monitor Community Air Quality and Exposure
(2021-06-30)This project evaluated the feasibility of using transit vehicles traveling on fixed routes for near-road exposure assessment. Continuous onroad measurements of four pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and O3) were recorded in ... -
Exploring the Characteristics of Faculty and Staff Parking on University Campuses
(2021-09-30)This project studied the characteristics of faculty and staff parking on university campuses. This project had two parts. Part one reviewed the faculty and staff parking management at four universities: Cornell University, ... -
Public health effects of long-term exposure to mobile source PM in California
(2021-03-31)Exposure fields for on-road sources with 1km resolution were calculated in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, Fresno, and Los Angeles for 2000-2011. The exposure fields were analyzed with the BenMAP model created by ... -
Pooling or not Pooling: the role of matching cost on mixed mode equilibria and VMT
(2021-03-31)While various incentives have been provided to promote carpooling, the share of car-pooling has remained flat over the years. In this project, we quantify various factors that affect carpooling in a measure called matching ... -

100% Biodiesel Vector Technology and Fuel Dispensing Solution — A CTECH live lab pilot project for the implementation and evaluation of the 100% biodiesel technology on identified equipment within Cornell’s fleet operations
(2020-09-30)CTECH has partnered with a student project team to create a project that provided hands-on experience to student engineers in sustainable transportation. Optimus, Inc., CTECH, and the biofuels group from Engineers for a ... -
Exploring the Influence of Carbon Footprint and Health Benefits in Parking Location Decisions
(2021-05-31)In modeling the parking location decisions, traditionally, the cost of parking permits and last-mile travel time (factored with the value of time) are the only two decision criteria. From the viewpoint of sustainability, ... -
Analysis and Design of Pavement Surface Mixtures for Traffic Noise Reduction
(2021-06-30)Road traffic noise pollutes the living environment and has adverse effects on public health, but it can be reduced at the source of one of its major components, the tire-pavement noise, by a porous pavement surface. This ...
