S-Mile consortium
The S-mile consortium will be comprised of a multidisciplinary set of partners that have a solid track records in implementing a broad range of technologies, services and research tools in the transport sector. This supports the intention of S-mile project, i.e. to develop a set of tools for supporting first/last mile logistic transport, fostering green transport means and solutions with various modules to meet the practical and strategic needs of key users in different market situations and geographical environments. The technical and scientific trajectory of each partner is perfectly fitting its role in the S- mile project.
Faculty of Transport, Silesian University of Technology (Poland): The faculty conducts scientific research in the following areas: transport systems planning, transport nets optimization and transport logistics. The group involved in this project has gained more than fifteen contract works in the field of transportation. The selected team (five persons) has rich experience with scientific research. They prepared more than five hundred publications (articles in journals, chapters and books) and more than two hundred presentatnions on conferences. Their scientific interests combine the problems of the road traffic engineering, the development of the commuting behaviors within the cities and the improvement of Logistics and Supply Chains in the first and last mile.
