Abstract

Studies related to the growth of the transportation networks from the second half of the 20th century have constantly been focused on the topological complexity of motorized & public transportation network (internal geometry & dynamics, occupied space, and geographical settings), or the structural properties (complexity of network structure). However, those studies have failed to incorporate the concept of an integrated public-soft transportation network, and the human-oriented transportation system, and its structural elements: soft transportation network, accessible nodes called Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs), healthy neighborhoods and, most importantly, its attributes. Additionally, the relative location (urban geographical settings) haven't been conceptualized in their models.In this paper, the ontological frameworks of an integrated public-soft transportation network and human-oriented transportation system will be proposed. Secondly, the attributes of those networks will be determined by comparing the integrated public-soft transportation network in Finland (Helsinki) with ordinary one in Italy (Rome) through the human-oriented transportation system framework. Thirdly, the applicability of the concept of human-oriented transportation system in Bozcaada (Tenedos) Island will be discussed. Thus, a new conceptual model of the human oriented transportation system will be proposed.

Highlights

  • Major studies during second half of the twentieth century have been focused on the public transportation network conceptualization in accordance with topological complexity or network structure (Xie & Levinson, 2007)

  • Galychyn/ The Academic Research Community Publication The discussed above ontological framework of human-oriented transportation system is shown below (Figure 6)

  • In this paper by analyzing five streams related to the transportation network growth: geography of transportation networks (1962-1969), optimization and design of networks (1970-1987), statistical analysis of the network growth (1975-present), to the economics of network growth (1996-present), network science (2002-present) have been found that infrastructural and engineering projects were mostly have been evaluated based on the cost savings and physical regulations1 while environmental and social scale were never assessed to conceptualize a transportation networks

Summary

Introduction

Major studies during second half of the twentieth century have been focused on the public transportation network conceptualization in accordance with topological complexity or network structure (Xie & Levinson, 2007). Environmental and social sphere were never utilized to represent the ontological complexity of transportation networks (Xie & Levinson, 2007). Galychyn/ The Academic Research Community Publication technological dimensions were studied (Xie & Levinson, 2007), After a major drawbacks and strong points of each ontological representation to define the crucial processes and outcomes in the specific context will be explained, the integrated public- soft transportation network concept (Galychyn & Ustundag, 2017) will be developed in accordance with the spatial transformations 2-9), (Galychyn & Ustundag, 2017) to introduce a human-oriented transportation system framework. Critisizm of five main streams of studies aimed on modeling transportation network growth
