Discontinuous Discrete Methods for Solving the Multi-phase Hydro-mechanical Behaviour of Partially-saturated Soils

The goal of the project is to develop robust finite-element type solvers of the equations describing the multi-phase hydro-mechanical behaviour of partially saturated soils, hence a more...

Empirical evidence of habits and patterns in public transport use

Demand for public transport systems is determined by high-level strategic decisions (home and work location choices), habits (preferred routes and modes) and real-time response more...

Impact of planned and unplanned incidents on travel time variability

A variety of planned and unplanned incidents contribute to journey time variability. Their expected impact on performance is determined by attributes of the incident (time of occurr more...

How do travellers think about reliability?

There is increasing recognition of the value of reliability in the transport system. Better data availability makes it possible to measure variability and infer its importance throu more...

A modal comparison of resiliency and reliability

Reliability and resilience capture a transport network’s ability to provide consistent accessibility under a range of conditions. Resilience is impacted by the structure of th more...

A complete solution of the internal erosion problem for granular media

One of the most common mechanisms for the failure of Earth structures is via internal erosion, where fine particles are washed out of the material by the action of water. This proje more...
