Assembles a collection of experts to provide a current account of different approaches (e.g., traditional, comparative and experimental) being applied to study mobility. Moreover, the book aims to stimulate new theoretical perspectives that adopt a holistic view of the interaction among intrinsic (i.e. skeletal) and extrinsic (i.e. environmental) factors that influence differential expression of mobility. Since the environment undoubtedly impacts mobility of a wide variety of animals, insights into human mobility, as a concept, can be improved by extending approaches to investigating comparable environmental influences on mobility in animals in general. The book teases apart environmental effects that transcend typical categories (e.g., coastal versus inland, mountainous versus level, arboreal versus terrestrial). Such an approach, when coupled with a new emphasis on mobility as types of activities rather than activity levels, offers a fresh, insightful perspective on mobility and how it might affect the musculoskeletal system.

Reconstructing Prehistoric Communities' Mobility in Apulia presents pioneering scholarly research to illuminate the interplay between ancient societies and their physical environment during the Neolithic to Early Bronze Age. The study introduces novel methodologies and analytical frameworks, yielding insights into the dynamics of prehistoric settlement patterns. To explore these dynamics, a systematic database was created containing comprehensive information about the archaeological sites, thus serving as the foundation for validation and classification, guided by a purpose-built model. A core investigation of the text is the Mobility Analysis (Least Cost Path), which hypothesises how communities maintained connections through time, whether for trade, ideas, or interpersonal exchanges. The other main aspect is the Landscape Perception (Fuzzy Viewshed Analysis), which deciphers how groups perceived and controlled their surroundings through sight. The research outcomes provide insight into settlement decisions, reflecting the evolution of the socio-economic relationships.

The objective of this research is to develop a general methodological framework for planning and evaluating the effectiveness of highway reconstruction strategies on the system's performance measures, in particular safety, mobility, and the total cost of network rehabilitation. Transportation networks are characterized by uncertainty that stems from different sources and transportation planners should consider risks involved in uncertainty in model parameters. In this research, Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) is used to quantify and measure the risk in pavement performance and travel demand. First, a method of constructing risk-based rehabilitation policies for a network of pavement facilities that ensures a specific quality level is introduced. Second, to enhance network mobility, several optimization models to minimize travel time for all paths connecting the same origin and destination pair is presented. Finally, to improve network safety during capacity expansion decisions, two models are presented to reduce accident rate by changing the ratio of flow to the link capacity to reduce injury and fatal accidents and property damage accidents.

The lateral migration and avulsion of river channels are fundamental parts of river systems. While we can measure the rates of channel migration and witness singular avulsion events in modern rivers, these studies fail to capture the long-term relationships between these processes and the preservation of sediment over geologic timescales. Here, I leveraged ancient fluvial deposits to reconstruct paleo-channel mobility, began to test the theory regarding the long- term behavior of river migration and avulsion and explored the sensitivity of river mobility to past cases of extreme climate change. I reconstructed the paleo-channel mobility from the fluvial deposits of the Willwood Formation (Bighorn Basin, Wyoming) and tested hypotheses regarding potential changes in channel mobility in response to the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) global warming event. I identified avulsion-generated channel-belt deposits and made detailed maps of intra-channel-belt facies and architecture with a particular focus on constraining the scale, stacking, lateral continuity, and preservation of bar deposits. I also calculated hydraulic parameters such as paleo-discharge, paleo-slope, Parker stability criterion, and channel mobility number. My results suggest that the Willwood rivers were extremely laterally mobile meandering rivers, confirming previous interpretations, and that their lateral mobility remained insensitive to the PETM climate change. However, an apparent increase in avulsion reoccupation at the channel-belt scale through the peak of the PETM suggests either a change in floodplain accumulation rates, a change in avulsion dynamics or the presence of channel-belt clustering within the Bighorn Basin. This study introduces a framework that allows ancient rivers to be directly compared to modern river and can be used to make predictions about which river systems are most susceptible to future climate change.
