This project aims to develop a low-cost, data-driven framework that builds a traffic simulation model automatically and directly from vehicle trajectory data to enable rapid and reliable analysis of large-scale traffic networks. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of transport engineering using an innovative approach to inferring travel behaviours, movement patterns and traffic dynamics from increasingly available urban trajectory data. Expected outcomes include improved decision support for urban planners and traffic operators and enhanced traffic management and incident response capabilities, providing significant social, economic and environment benefits through optimised road use and urban flow.Read moreRead less

Modelling mixed traffic of traditional, connected, and automated vehicles. This project plans to address the challenge of efficiently operating mixed traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. The rapid advancement of technologies is currently turning connected and automated vehicles from science fiction into science fact. However, there are no existing traffic flow models capable of reproducing features of mixed traffic flow consisting of traditional, connected and automated ....Modelling mixed traffic of traditional, connected, and automated vehicles. This project plans to address the challenge of efficiently operating mixed traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. The rapid advancement of technologies is currently turning connected and automated vehicles from science fiction into science fact. However, there are no existing traffic flow models capable of reproducing features of mixed traffic flow consisting of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. This project aims to address this knowledge deficit and develop an analytical tool able to accurately model mixed traffic flow. This new knowledge and model are prerequisites to effective operation and control of traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles.Read moreRead less

Summary
Quantifying and managing the network impacts of transport sharing services. This project aims to address the challenge of effectively modelling multiple transport sharing services (e.g., ridesharing and parking sharing) in a multimodal network, and efficiently operating these services, and incentivising people to use them. The project expects to generate new knowledge in shared transport by developing an innovative approach to systematically reproducing and optimising network impacts of sharing ....Quantifying and managing the network impacts of transport sharing services. This project aims to address the challenge of effectively modelling multiple transport sharing services (e.g., ridesharing and parking sharing) in a multimodal network, and efficiently operating these services, and incentivising people to use them. The project expects to generate new knowledge in shared transport by developing an innovative approach to systematically reproducing and optimising network impacts of sharing services on travel choices, sharing demand-supply matching patterns, movement trajectory features and traffic dynamics. Expected outcomes include new models and strategies to improve decision support for transport planners and operators. This should provide significant benefits for human mobility and city sustainability.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop novel quantitative models and market design methods to fundamentally transform the analysis, control and regulation of shared and automated point-to-point transport services in multimodal networks. The project offers an innovative non-equilibrium approach that models multiple competitive transport platforms, travellers, freelancer drivers and transport legislator entity to ensure achieving social welfare. The project outcomes address the eventual transition towards automation where platforms own and utilise different proportions of AVs in their fleet. The project expects to generate new knowledge of transport science that can be used to lessen social, economic and environmental impacts of private car ownership.
