Urban areas are increasingly facing climate-related risks that outpace the implementation of adaptation measures, often attributed to a persistent policy-to-implementation gap. Bridging this gap requires a deeper understanding of the underlying governance dynamics. This paper adopts a governance arrangement …

Circular, biobased, and modular construction practices are gaining traction as cities seek to reduce the environmental impact of the built environment. However, little is known about how these strategies affect construction logistics and their associated emissions. We develop an agent-based model to …

This report presents a validated workflow that shows how digital platforms such as FMaaS can facilitate the development of new multimodal freight corridors. We interviewed six logistics managers and found three critical requirements that shippers won't compromise on. First, the platform needs to be run …

The rapid advancement of Generative AI (GenAI), particularly large language models (LLMs), has significantly reshaped how individuals and organizations engage in decision-making.
