Motorcycle vehicle emissions - effect of driving cycle in urban and rural context (2010)
Book
Kumar, R., & Saleh, W. (2010). Motorcycle vehicle emissions - effect of driving cycle in urban and rural context

Climate change and global warming is challenging task ahead. This text book covers the fundamentals of estimating emission factor with special emphasis on motorcycle exhaust emissions. For the first time the text integrates various modelling techniqu... Read More about Motorcycle vehicle emissions - effect of driving cycle in urban and rural context.

Travel demand management and road user pricing : success, failure and feasibility (2009)
Book
Saleh, W., & Sammer, G. (Eds.). (2009). Travel demand management and road user pricing : success, failure and feasibility. Ashgate Publishing

Throughout the world, traffic levels are increasing and, in urban areas, these increasing levels have led to pressures on the road networks which are causing serious economic, environmental and social problems. This book examines the full range of 'p... Read More about Travel demand management and road user pricing : success, failure and feasibility.

Variable message signs: are they effective TDM measures? (2009)
Book Chapter
Saleh, W., Walker, C., & Pai, C. W. (2009). Variable message signs: are they effective TDM measures?. In Travel Demand Management and Road User Pricing: Success, Failure and Feasibility (135-150). Ashgate Publishing

This chapter investigates impacts of Variable Message Signs (VMS) on accidents rates and severities on Scottish trunk roads. A before and after analysis of accidents at 14 selected VMS sites in central and north-east Scotland is presented.

Investigation of pedestrian accidents analysis at signalised pedestrian crossings in Edinburgh (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Saleh, W., & Alnaqbi, K. (2009, December). Investigation of pedestrian accidents analysis at signalised pedestrian crossings in Edinburgh. Presented at Seventh International Conference of World Association for Sustainable Development (WASD), Bahrain

Data from STATS19 show that pedestrian accident rates are higher over the pedestrian crossing points than these away from it, or within 50 m of pedestrian crossing facilities. This is contrary to the expectations that accidents should be least over t... Read More about Investigation of pedestrian accidents analysis at signalised pedestrian crossings in Edinburgh.

Real world driving cycle for motorcycles in Edinburgh (2009)
Journal Article
Saleh, W., Kumar, R., Kirby, H., & Kumar, P. (2009). Real world driving cycle for motorcycles in Edinburgh. Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 14(5), 326-333. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2009.03.003

Knowledge of the driving cycle is an important requirement in the evaluation of exhaust emissions. Data were collected from trips performed on five routes between the home addresses in the surrounding areas and place of work at Napier University in E...

A mixed logit analysis of motorists’ right-of-way violation in motorcycle accidents at priority T-junctions (2009)
Journal Article
Pai, C.-W., Hwang, K. P., & Saleh, W. (2009). A mixed logit analysis of motorists’ right-of-way violation in motorcycle accidents at priority T-junctions. Accident analysis and prevention, 41(3), 565-573. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2009.02.007

Research suggested that motorists’ right-of-way (ROW) violation in automobile–motorcycle gap-acceptance accidents at priority (i.e., stop-/yield-controlled) T-intersections has been a safety concern to motorcyclists. This study examines the character... Read More about A mixed logit analysis of motorists’ right-of-way violation in motorcycle accidents at priority T-junctions.

Exploring motorcyclist injury severity in approach-turn collisions at T-junctions: Focusing on the effects of driver's failure to yield and junction control measures (2007)
Journal Article
Pai, C.-W., & Saleh, W. (2008). Exploring motorcyclist injury severity in approach-turn collisions at T-junctions: Focusing on the effects of driver's failure to yield and junction control measures. Accident analysis and prevention, 40(2), 479-486. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2007.08.003

Research has suggested that motorcyclists involved in approach-turn crashes were much more injurious than any other crash-type. This paper investigates the determinants of motorcyclist injury severity resulting from such crash types that occurred at...

Modelling motorcyclist injury severity by various crash types at T-junctions in the UK (2007)
Journal Article
Pai, C.-W., & Saleh, W. (2008). Modelling motorcyclist injury severity by various crash types at T-junctions in the UK. Safety Science, 46(8), 1234-1247. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2007.07.005

Motorcyclists tend to be more vulnerable to injuries than those using other motorised vehicles and this may act synergistically with the complexity of conflicting movements between vehicles and motorcycles to increase injury severity in a junction-ty...
