3D urban transport environment

Abstract

The paper investigates issues related to the solution of problems in the development of public transport infrastructure in urban agglomerations. The opportunities of further development of the existing typical city public transport infrastructure have been studied. The conclusion about the possibility of reforming the existing typical urban public transport infrastructure is drawn. It is proposed to use the available airspace together with the ground and underground public transport as a direction for the development of urban public transport infrastructure. The formation of an urban transport 3D environment is studied. It is shown that the joint application of all three urban transport environments will significantly expand the potential of urban public transport infrastructure. The possibility of using ultralight aircraft as an air vehicle is considered. It is proposed to use new types of aircraft as air vehicles. The prototype of an aircraft based on cylindrical vane propellers under the code name “Cyclolet” is described. Its flight technical characteristics are given. The conclusion about the possibility of using an aircraft of the “Cyclolet” type on the basis of cylindrical vane propellers as an air vehicle in the organization of permanent public transportation in urban agglomerations in the Russian Federation and abroad is drawn.
