Monograph

This issue contains thirteen papers concerned with environment and energy. Specific topics addressed in this issue: life-cycle benefits of recycled material in highway construction; thermoelectric energy from asphalt pavements; plug-in hybrid electric vehicle consumers; an integrated multimodal transportation model for a switchgrass-based bioethanol supply chain; the implications of rounding in highway noise analyses and policies; and underwater sound levels from the implosion of a reinforced concrete bridge pier. Additional topics covered in this issue include: estimation of personal vehicle energy consumption; retrospective comparison of regulatory document projections for corporate average fuel economy and greenhouse gas standards; zero-emission vehicles deployment; plug-in hybrid electric vehicle charging management; truck electrification for heavy-duty vehicle applications; electric vehicle purchaser satisfaction and rejection reasons; and bat roosting in bridges.
