Recent technological developments open up possibilities for introducing a vast number of novel mobility concepts in urban environments. One these new is air (UAM). It makes use passenger drones on-demand transport settings, promising high travel speeds those willing and able to pay. This research aims answer the question how benefits from UAM will be distributed, taking into account spatial dimension differential impacts on low- high-skilled households. We develop framework that can more...
This research aims to assess the broader impact of electric mobility in urban settlements, paying attention both electrified ground and air transport. Considering cars as well passenger drones, often referred UAM (urban mobility), we use an spatial computable general equilibrium model welfare environmental impacts a transition mobility. A numerical simulation shows that from gasoline yields major emission reductions, while leading losses due tax-induced market distortions. Introducing into...
In this work, we project the idea of aerial passenger transport in near future: on-demand urban air mobility (UAM) for greater Munich area year 2030. We propose a simulation framework that facilitates analyzing potential demand UAM. define five scenarios (ranging from representations niche application to mass option) by varying fleet size, available technologies, infrastructure placement, and pricing strategies. These are fed into an extended version agent-based platform MATSim chained with...
Technological advances are disrupting mobility patterns and transport technologies, both on the ground in air. The latter has been recently observed research community of urban air (UAM). Research this area studied several areas its implementation, such as vehicle concepts, infrastructure, modeling, or operational constraints. Few studies however have focused evaluating service an alternative among existing transportation systems. This presents approach for selection indicators a...
Technological advances have paved the way for urban air mobility (UAM) as a new mode of transportation, providing solutions both inner-city and regional transportation. Novel vertical take-off landing (VTOL) vehicles promise to be less noisy safer than existing helicopters, thus allowing an integration UAM into current systems. However, this market is non-existent today, companies engaged in field face several uncertainties. Strategic decision factors supporting VTOL manufacturers...
Based on data from broadly representative surveys among more than 1,400 citizens in Germany and Sweden, this paper empirically examines the support of different groups climate-related (passenger) transport policy measures targeting vehicle use, public transport, air travel, bicycle use. Our descriptive analysis reveals that pull (e.g. financial transport) are strongly supported both countries push increase taxes flight tickets). Furthermore, bans (i.e. a sales ban new gasoline-...
As traffic levels increase in urban agglomerations, opinions are voiced that wish to elevate transport into the third dimension, air. In this work, we project idea of aerial passenger near future: on-demand air mobility (UAM) for greater Munich area year 2030. To date, most research is focusing on independent factors regarding supply and demand UAM, such as vehicle types infrastructure capacity. We propose a simulation framework facilitates analyzing potential using combination interacting...

This research proposes a method for scenario-based estimation air (UAM) vehicle demand. In order assess potential pathways VTOL demand multiple steps have been taken. The encompasses four dimensions distinguishes between three...
The report presents policy options for the successful integration of drones into transport system. How can countries reap benefits drone while limiting risks? examines concerns about acceptability, efficiency and sustainability transport. analysis covers passenger freight with different payloads ranges, also addresses other uses that support sector.

E-commerce has gained importance over the last years and COVID-19 pandemic further strengthened this development. With increasing opportunities that novel transport technologies, amongst them cargo drones, offer e-commerce is likely to even become more attractive in upcoming years. This paper therefor analyses long-run effects of specifically impact a shift towards package delivery via drones. Using polycentric urban spatial general equilibrium model, incorporating different retail channels,...
Zusammenfassung Die Versorgung der nordfriesischen Inseln und Halligen ist stark durch ihre Tiden‑, Witterungs- Saisonabhängigkeit geprägt. vorliegende Untersuchung prüft, ob eine Belieferung dieser schwierig zu erreichenden Gebiete mit Transportdrohnen das Potenzial hätte, mögliche Versorgungslücken schließen, um zur Angleichung Lebensverhältnisse an die des Festlands beizutragen. Qualitative Interviews Stakeholdern Region zeigen, dass Saisonalität Fähren Einschränkungen in Versorgung, vor...
