Bridges are critical assets for the safe, reliable and functional operation of transportation networks. Infrastructure asset managers are responsible for ensuring that these bridges adhere to rigorous safety standards using the finite resources avail...

Macro modelling of traffic flow using continuous timed Petri nets (2021)
Journal Article
Ferreira, C., & Neves, L. C. (2021). Macro modelling of traffic flow using continuous timed Petri nets. Transportation Planning and Technology, 44(5), 503-523. https://doi.org/10.1080/03081060.2021.1927304

In this paper, continuous timed Petri nets (CTPN) are used to develop a hybrid traffic model, where the network is modelled as a macroscopic model and calibrated by microscopic models. The concept of CTPN is used to build a modular model, where first... Read More about Macro modelling of traffic flow using continuous timed Petri nets.

Modelling the interactions between defect mechanisms on metal bridges (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Calvert, G., Neves, L., Andrews, J., & Hamer, M. (2021). Modelling the interactions between defect mechanisms on metal bridges. In Bridge Maintenance, Safety, Management, Life-Cycle Sustainability and Innovations: Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Bridge Maintenance, Safety and Management (IABMAS 2020)

Bridge asset managers have finite resources at their disposal to minimise the risk of structural failure and ensure bridges are maintained to a suitable safety threshold. Any maintenance strategy must be efficient in its use of resources and deliver... Read More about Modelling the interactions between defect mechanisms on metal bridges.
