A sustainable transport solution for a Slovenia town (2014)
Journal Article
Knez, M., Celik, A. N., & Muneer, T. (2015). A sustainable transport solution for a Slovenia town. International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, 10(4), 386-392. https://doi.org/10.1093/ijlct/ctu007

Authorities in Slovenia and other EU member states are confronted with problems of city transportation. Fossil-fuel-based transport poses two chief problems—local and global pollution, and dwindling supplies and ever-increasing costs. An elegant solu...

Impact of motorcycle’s driving behaviour on fuel consumption and emissions. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kumar, R., Saleh, W., & Ocana, L. (2014, January). Impact of motorcycle’s driving behaviour on fuel consumption and emissions. Paper presented at 46th Annual UTSG Conference

Many studies have confirmed that driving behaviour has a great influence on petrol-fuelled than on diesel-fuelled vehicles. Depending on the type of road and vehicle technology, fuel consumption may increase by up to 40% for aggressive driving compar...

Reregulating the deregulated, a case study of the Scottish Bus market. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cowie, J. (2014, January). Reregulating the deregulated, a case study of the Scottish Bus market. Paper presented at 46th Universities Transport Studies Group Conference

Much research surrounds the move from publicly owned and operated bus markets to publicly controlled and privately operated markets, or in the case of Great Britain, a fully deregulated market. Little research however exists concerning the counter mo... Read More about Reregulating the deregulated, a case study of the Scottish Bus market..

Effects of transit real-time information usage strategies. (2014)
Journal Article
Fonzone, A., & Schmoecker, J.-D. (2014). Effects of transit real-time information usage strategies. Transportation research record, 2417, 121-129. https://doi.org/10.3141/2417-13

Real-time information is becoming increasingly available to transit travellers. This paper discusses the effects of RTI available before the start of a journey in terms of line loads as well as passenger benefits. We consider that it can affect the c...

Evaluation of following headway behaviour in mixed traffic condition in north east part of India. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kumar, R., & Parida, P. (2013, September). Evaluation of following headway behaviour in mixed traffic condition in north east part of India. Presented at 11th WASD Annual Conference

Purpose: Both a lack of understanding of the issues for following headway behaviour of the driver and a lack of sufficient data in different traffic condition have been major reasons to attempt this research study. This paper attempts to address hypo... Read More about Evaluation of following headway behaviour in mixed traffic condition in north east part of India..
