Bounded rationality in hyperpath assignment: the locally rational traveller model. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fonzone, A., & Bell, M. G. H. (2010, January). Bounded rationality in hyperpath assignment: the locally rational traveller model. Presented at 89th Annual TRB Meeting

The concepts of optimal strategy and hyperpath were introduced in the transport field under the paradigms of equilibrium and expected utility theory, which assume perfect rationality. The initial scope for hyperpaths was frequency-based transit assig... Read More about Bounded rationality in hyperpath assignment: the locally rational traveller model..

Taxi services are a long-standing, well-established, mode of transport, commonly available and instantly recognizable. The mode has a significant history of supply which pre-dates motorized transport in many countries, and relates to a combination of... Read More about Taxis beyond the comfort zone..

Prospects for large-scale solar thermal electricity generation from the LIBYAN desert: technical feasibility. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Aldali, Y., Henderson, D., & Muneer, T. (2009, July). Prospects for large-scale solar thermal electricity generation from the LIBYAN desert: technical feasibility

The Great Sahara desert covers the entire range of Libyan longitude 11o 44’ to 23o 58’ E and a latitude range of 24o 17’ through to 30o 31’N, thus covering an area of 1,750,000 sq km and 88% of this land is desert. The authors have measured hourly so... Read More about Prospects for large-scale solar thermal electricity generation from the LIBYAN desert: technical feasibility..

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.

Typology of long-term port efficiency Improvement paths: malmquist total factor productivity for world container ports (2009)
Journal Article
Cheon, S., Dowall, D. E., & Song, D.-W. (2009). Typology of long-term port efficiency Improvement paths: malmquist total factor productivity for world container ports. Journal of Infrastructure Systems, 15(4), 340-350. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%291076-0342%282009%2915%3A4%28340%29

The global seaport sector made huge efforts in relation to port reform and technological development since the 1990s. This study attempts to systematically estimate the impacts of these efforts on world ports’ efficiency changes between 1991 and 2004...
