Resilience of Informal Public Transport and Urban Land Governance in Ibadan, Nigeria (2020)
Book Chapter
Moyo, D., & Olowosegun, A. (2021). Resilience of Informal Public Transport and Urban Land Governance in Ibadan, Nigeria. In R. Home (Ed.), Land Issues for Urban Governance in Sub-Saharan Africa (281-297). Cham: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-

Informal public transport (IPT) has emerged as an adaptive alternative to formal public transport in developing countries. Transport sytems are an integral part of land allocation and urban governance in urban development, with positive and negative...

Experimental Analysis of Gravity and Buoyancy Powered Energy Generation Storage Systems (2020)
Book Chapter
Kashem, S. B. A., Ngambi, D. T., Ahmed, J., Qidwai, U., & Suresh, P. (2020). Experimental Analysis of Gravity and Buoyancy Powered Energy Generation Storage Systems. In P. Suresh, U. Saravanakumar, & M. S. H. Al Salameh (Eds.), Advances in Smart System Te

The concept of harnessing energy from buoyancy as well as the ability to have underwater energy storage is an area of research that, compared to other renewable energy generation techniques, is relatively unexplored. This study presents an experiment... Read More about Experimental Analysis of Gravity and Buoyancy Powered Energy Generation Storage Systems.

Autonomous Vehicle Sunshade Using Aluminum Panels (2020)
Book Chapter

Moving to healthy transport: the drivers of transformational change – a view from Scotland (2020)
Book Chapter
Davis, A. L. (2020). Moving to healthy transport: the drivers of transformational change – a view from Scotland. In M. J. Nieuwenhuijsen, & H. Khreis (Eds.), Advances in Transportation and Health (407-421). (1). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-

The need to stabilize global average temperature rises to no more than 1.5 degrees may be the driver for transformational change that will also deliver major improvements in public health. Barriers to change in the transport sector have long included... Read More about Moving to healthy transport: the drivers of transformational change – a view from Scotland.
