Analysis of Stationary and Dynamic Factors Affecting Highway Accident Occurrence (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fountas, G., Sarwar, M. T., Anastasopoulos, P., Blatt, A., & Majka, K. (2017). Analysis of Stationary and Dynamic Factors Affecting Highway Accident Occurrence. In TRB 96th Annual Meeting Compendium of Papers

Traditional accident analysis typically explores non-time-varying (stationary) factors that affect accident occurrence on roadway segments. However, the impact of time-varying (dynamic) factors is not thoroughly investigated. This paper seeks to simu...

Travel Plans for New Developments: A Global Review (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
De Gruyter, C., Rose, G., Currie, G., & Rye, T. (2017). Travel Plans for New Developments: A Global Review. In Proceedings Transportation Research Board Annual Meeting

Travel plans, also known as Transportation Demand Management (TDM) plans, can be required for new infill and greenfield developments through the land use planning and approvals process. They aim to manage car use through delivering a package of trans... Read More about Travel Plans for New Developments: A Global Review.

A pilot study: Evaluation of sensor system design for optical fibre humidity sensors subjected to aggressive air sewer environment (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alwis, L. S. M., Bustamante, H., Bremer, K., Roth, B., Sun, T., & Grattan, K. T. V. (2016, October). A pilot study: Evaluation of sensor system design for optical fibre humidity sensors subjected to aggressive air sewer environment. Presented at 2016 IEEE SENSORS

Research has identified that humidity plays a fundamental role on the conversion of hydrogen sulphide into sulphuric acid during corrosion of concrete in gravity sewers and that potentially minor reductions in humidity can reduce corrosion rates. The... Read More about A pilot study: Evaluation of sensor system design for optical fibre humidity sensors subjected to aggressive air sewer environment.

Faculty perceptions on publishing research (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pennington, D. R., Swanson, A., Akwaowo, E., & Zobisch, P. (2016, September). Faculty perceptions on publishing research. Presented at 19th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning, Belfast

Today’s researchers have not only the traditional publications, but the open access publishing method whereby research papers can be published via the Internet as well as print publications. Researchers must carefully scrutinize the open access publi... Read More about Faculty perceptions on publishing research.

The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vasantha, G., Corney, J., Maclachlan, R., & Wodehouse, A. (2016, June). The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design. Presented at 7th International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition, Evanston (Chicago), United States

This paper explores the role of patents in engineering design, and how the extraction and presentation of patent data could be improved for designers. We propose the use of crowdsourcing as a means to post tasks online for a crowd of people to partic... Read More about The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design.

An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Steyven, A., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2017, July). An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference - GECCO '17

A robotic swarm that is required to operate for long periods in a potentially unknown environment can use both evolution and individual learning methods in order to adapt. However, the role played by the environment in influencing the effectiveness o...
