I would like to know how can Creative Urban Space reduce the usage of automobile? What will be the toolkits to reudce automobile by urban space?
I understand that TOD development can also promote to use the urban transport. I am also curious about creative urban space and related with automobile usages.

Safe convenient and rapid public transport would help, but a more fundamental program might give better results. City planning for example could locate people and destinations closer together, but at the loss of much freedom. One tactic I didn't like in London is the automatic charge of a fee for each time a vehicle passes a detector.

Why capacity curve and demand curve does not meet after performing pushover analysis in ETABS software?
- Amal Jayakumar
I'm doing my M.Tech project on Pushover Analysis of a 10 storeyed RCC building resting on a sloped ground using ETABS v.20 software. The structure is found to be safe and all the concrete members have passed the concrete frame design check. Prior to analyzing the pushover analysis, pushover load case has been defined under Load Case as non-linear static type, set to a control displacement of 500mm; next auto hinge property was assigned to frame members (i.e., M3 hinge property for beams and P-M2-M3 hinge property for columns) at a relative distance of 0.1m and 0.9m from a joint. After running the analysis, the following warning message has appeared:
MAXIMUM NUMBER OF NULL STEPS REACHED FOR CASE: PUSH SUBSEQUENT RESULTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE
and hence, the total no. of steps for pushover curve appears to be very less and performance point under FEMA 440 Equivalent is not to be found as capacity and demand curves doesn't intersect
Does anyone had faced similar problem and can share the solution for the same??
