Does Transport Inequality Perpetuate Housing Insecurity?

Nandini Iyer, Ronaldo Menezes, Hugo Barbosa

With trends of urbanisation on the rise, providing adequate housing to individuals remains a complex issue to be addressed. Often, the slow output of relevant housing policies, cou…

Network Entropy as a Measure of Socioeconomic Segregation in Residential and Employment Landscapes

Nandini Iyer, Ronaldo Menezes, Hugo Barbosa

Cities create potential for individuals from different backgrounds to interact with one another. It is often the case, however, that urban infrastructure obfuscates this potential,…

Mobility and Transit Segregation in Urban Spaces

Nandini Iyer, Ronaldo Menezes, Hugo Barbosa

Segregation is a highly nuanced concept that researchers have worked to define and measure over the past several decades. Conventional approaches tend to estimate segregation based…

COVID-19 is linked to changes in the time-space dimension of human mobility

Clodomir Santana, Federico Botta, Hugo Barbosa +3

Socio-economic constructs and urban topology are crucial drivers of human mobility patterns. During the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, these patterns were reshaped in their com…

Dynamic predictability and spatio-temporal contexts in human mobility

Bibandhan Poudyal, Diogo Pacheco, Marcos Oliveira +4

Human travelling behaviours are markedly regular, to a large extent, predictable, and mostly driven by biological necessities (\eg sleeping, eating) and social constructs (\eg scho…

The impact of inter-city mobility on urban welfare

Sayat Mimar, David Soriano-Paños, Alec Kirkley +5

While much effort has been devoted to understand the role of intra-urban characteristics on sustainability and growth, much remains to be understood about the effect of inter-urban…

Differences in the spatial landscape of urban mobility: gender and socioeconomic perspectives

Mariana Macedo, Laura Lotero, Alessio Cardillo +2

Many of our routines and activities are linked to our ability to move; be it commuting to work, shopping for groceries, or meeting friends. Yet, factors that limit the individuals'…

Uncovering the socioeconomic facets of human mobility

Hugo Barbosa, Surendra Hazarie, Brian Dickinson +6

Given the rapid recent trend of urbanization, a better understanding of how urban infrastructure mediates socioeconomic interactions and economic systems is of vital importance. Wh…

Gender Patterns of Human Mobility in Colombia: Reexamining Ravenstein's Laws of Migration

Mariana Macedo, Laura Lotero, Alessio Cardillo +2

Public stakeholders implement several policies and regulations to tackle gender gaps, fostering the change in the cultural constructs associated with gender. One way to quantify if…

Uncovering the role of spatial constraints in the differences and similarities between physical and virtual mobility

Surendra Hazarie, Hugo Barbosa, Adam Frank +2

The recent availability of digital traces from Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) has facilitated the study of both individual- and population-level movement with un…

From the betweenness centrality in street networks to structural invariants in random planar graphs

Alec Kirkley, Hugo Barbosa, Marc Barthelemy +1

We demonstrate that the distribution of betweenness centrality (BC), a global structural metric based on network flow, is an invariant quantity in most planar graphs. We confirm th…

Morphology of travel routes and the organization of cities

Minjin Lee, Hugo Barbosa, Hyejin Youn +2

The city is a complex system that evolves through its inherent social and economic interactions. Mediating the movements of people and resources, urban street networks offer a spat…
