    The Rational Locator: Why Travel Times Have Remained Stable

    Full text link
    This paper evaluates household travel surveys for the Washington metropolitan region conducted in 1968 and 1988, and shows that commuting times remain stable or decline over the twenty year period despite an increase in average travel distance, after controlling for trip purpose and mode of travel. The average automobile work-to-home time of 32.5 minutes in both 1968 and 1988 is, moreover, very consistent with a 1957 survey showing an average time of 33.5 minutes in metropolitan Washington. Average trip speeds increased by more than 20 percent, countering the effect of increased travel distance. This change was observed during a period of rapid suburban growth in the region. With the changing distributional composition of trip origins and destinations, overall travel times have remained relatively constant. The hypothesis that jobs and housing mutually co-locate to optimize travel times is lent further support by these data. .

    Biomaterials for bone regeneration possessing novel antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties: comprehensive biological evaluations

    Full text link
    Bone fractures, a common global injury due to trauma, particularly for those with osteoporosis, cause a significant economic burden. Often caused by falls, accidents, or sports, they are frequently treated by healthcare professionals. While the body can heal minor fractures naturally, severe injuries like spinal cord or bone damage might require regenerative surgery. However, this healing ability weakens with age and factors like inflammation from damaged tissue. Implants, widely used in surgeries for bones, muscles, and blood vessels, are designed to interact with the body, aiding tissue repair and providing structural support. In orthopaedics, implants are common for fixing fractures, correcting spinal deformities, and replacing hips and knees. The rising elderly population leads to more implant surgeries. A major concern is implant failure due to infection and inflammation triggered by fibroblast activation. This inflammation makes fighting infections difficult. Bacteria readily adhere to implants, forming biofilms resistant to antibiotics. Staphylococcus aureus and epidermidis are the main culprits in such infections on implants. Biofilm formation leads to peri-implant infections and tissue death, resulting in bone loss and implant loosening even without direct infection. New methods like antibacterial coatings are being explored to combat these infections typically caused by S. aureus. The field of orthopaedics is constantly evolving with novel materials and manufacturing techniques for implants. My PhD research focused on developing multifunctional bone implants that improve tissue integration, reduce bacterial infections, and promote blood vessel growth. We primarily investigated biomaterials such as Bioglass and titanium implants, both individually and combined. Additionally, we explored incorporating antimicrobial peptoids, phage-derived endolysins, and natural extracts like polyphenols, tellurium, and cerium
