This article examines traveldistances in daily trips based on random day trip diaries and long-distance trips for private and business purposes. First, it analyses the effects of municipality size classes based on population, population density
, and land-use mix, while controlling for sociodemographics. Second, it finds distancestravelled on long-distance trips and daily trips to be affected by sociodemographics in much the same way, while spatial effects affect distancestravelled on daily
travel shorter distances in their daily lives.
and long-distance trips mostly in different directions. Residents of small municipalities and low-density neighbourhoods make fewer and/or shorter long-distance journeys than those living in large cities and high-density neighbourhoods, but the latter

Data from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada have indicated that travel time from home to grocery store is affected by three aspects of a trip : the number of shops, the number of trip purposes, and the order of a shopping stop. The effects of such multiple
stops on the distance from home to a store is crucial for understanding spatial patterns of retail choice. - (SGA)
Certain social profile variables known to affect recreational travel are discussed, and considered in relation to the movement of day trippers to beaches in Southern New South Wales. The relationships between these variables and distancestravelled

Taking Shanghai as a sample of destination and origin of urban recreationists, this paper is based on data from comprehensive travel measurement. To analyze traveling models, the A. uses techniques of recreational activity space and the use curve
analysis. Isotourist lines are constructed. The A. finds that a U-shaped UC model exists in the distance decay under the influence of attractiveness and distance.
Sediment traveldistance as an experimental and model variable in particulate movement
In this paper traveldistance will be used to refer to horizontal distances. A particle movement such as rainsplash or fluvial bedload transport shows at least the potential for variations in traveldistance with grain size. Experimental data also
show a considerable dispersion in the traveldistances within each grain size class. This behaviour also contrasts strongly with that for a mass movement. Transporting capacity cannot generally be measured directly, but must be derived from
Regional variation in excess travel in non-professional trips in Flanders is assessed. Proximity to various quasi-daily destinations is compared with the reported distance that is actually travelled to reach similar facilities. In rural areas larger
distances are travelled, although the closest facility is chosen more often. In the most urbanised areas, spatial proximity is also an important aspect in destination choice. Quantification of these phenomena can support the practice of sustainable spatial
Virtual rate and mean distance of travel of individual clasts in gravel-bed channels
Traveldistance in gravel-bed rivers of tagged particles of various sizes are related to excess stream power estimated for peak discharge. Mean distance of movement, irrespective of grain size, is weakly correlated with stream power, especially near

of raindrop impact. Although, in theory, a relationship between settling velocity and particle traveldistance exists, particle density is also a factor. Further study of how particle characteristics influence sediment discharge will aid modelling

This article assesses neighborhood differences in access to supermarkets for the Portland, Oregon region. It shows that poor and nonpoor outer neighborhoods have longer average travel times and distances to nearby supermarkets than their more
centralized counterparts. It also demonstrates that the former fare better on traveldistance than nonpoor outer neighborhoods do, but endure penalties in longer travel times. This research suggests that more nuanced methodology will be required for us

The economic theory of search is proposed as a theoretical background which motivates the modelling of commuting distance distributions. A sub-sample is used of respondants of the Housing Demand Survey of 1985, approached again in 1988
. The distances are discussed in relation to household characteristics. Their apparent rapid increase is due in large part to changes in the employment situation.
