<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">In developing countries like Baghdad, it has seen high growth of urbanization accompanied by the high trip rate, which conduces increased vehicle traffic and human traffic. One of the major problems is the increase in traffic congestion of unplanned development of various structures at various locations. Four-step demand models are important in planning and forecasting future demand. Trip generation is an important step when planning urban infrastructure. In this study, three shopping centers (AL Mansour mall, Babylon mall, and al Waha mall) were selected, trip attraction rates were calculated using two approaches (trip rate analysis method, and Regression analysis method). The number of persons entering and exiting the site for every 15-minute interval during peak hours is estimated. This research considers various physical characteristics of shopping centers, gross floor area (GFA), number of employees and the number of stores in the shopping center. From the data analysis, good relations exist between the dependent variable (trip rate) and various independent variables, and the developed trip rate per GFA per 1000 m2 is 133 person trips and various trip rates are presented through this study.</abstract>

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">The liberalization of the rail freight market has been booming in recent years. On a pan-European scale, new freight carriers are increasing year after year. Support for the liberalization of the railway sector is mainly implemented through the so-called railway packages and one of the tools is the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the individual railway stations. The relevance of the article is mainly to propose measures for railway stations, where freight transport is declining despite the liberalized market. These are main railway stations located on regional lines and railway stations with a smaller scope of transport work. The aim of this paper will be to propose measures to support freight transport in the Slovak Republic by setting minimum requirements (standards) for railway stations depending on their performance, respecting their current technical level of railway operation.</abstract>

Qualitative and Quantitative Indicators of Railway Stations

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Increasing population mobility and current trend of creating integrated passenger transport systems are opportunities for finding new possibilities to rationalization the railway passenger transport on those lines, where are no passenger trains or where the traffic service is not optimal nowadays. Precondition of reinstating the railway passenger transport is thorough potential passenger analysis, where there are actual geographic, demographic and transport characteristics of the region, where this line is situated. The contribution describes the passenger transport system, timetables rationalization and standards of traffic service in rail passenger transport. Consequently, according to these outputs and demographic and transport characteristic was proposed the rationalization of traffic service at Zvolen – Šahy transport route.</abstract>

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Logistics audit is an effective tool of logistics management of a company, which serves to analyze and control the efficient and economic implementation of logistics activities. Today, more and more companies apply logistics audit in their practice, because it appears to be a very effective tool in today’s turbulent business environment. Such a tool assesses the state and performance of the management of the company’s logistics activities. The logistics audit determines changes and settings of individual processes that will lead to an increase in the quality and performance of the logistics system as a whole. Which means increasing the competitiveness of the company. The article focuses specifically on the application of logistics audit within the transport company. Because so far this tool has been applied mainly in the conditions of manufacturing companies and focused on optimizing the logistics of production processes. The article describes the procedure of performing a logistics audit and analyzes the main processes in a transport company.</abstract>

Transport technic and technology

 The University of Zilina has, since its founding in 1953 as Railway College in Prague, been dedicated to comprehensive research and education in all modes of transport and communication. The need for the exchange of scientific knowledge in the field of transport, with regard to all its directions and modes, has led to the establishment of the international scientific journal Transport Technic and Technology (TTT).  The Transport Technic and Technology journal is a direct successor of the Railway Transport and Logistics journal which was published by the Department of Railway Transport, the Faculty of Operation and Economics of Transport and Communications of the University of Žilina since 2005.  The high scientific level of the journal is guaranteed by experts from the academic sphere and practice from Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Croatia, Austria, the Russian Federation and the United Kingdom.  The TTT journal is a comprehensive focused on all transport modes in the field of technics, technology, transport infrastructure, transport engineering, IT, economics, management, ecology and law. The aim of the journal is to publish the latest knowledge of transport research, the exchange of theoretical knowledge and the best practice information between the academic sphere and practice.  TTT journal is published twice a year – in June and December.  Articles published in the TTT journal are reviewed by at least two independent experts, and the scientific level of published articles is guaranteed by the members of Scientific Committee.
