Road maintenance planning using network flow modelling (2015)
Journal Article
Yang, C., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (in press). Road maintenance planning using network flow modelling. IMA Journal of Management Mathematics, https://doi.org/10.1093/imaman/dpv031

This paper presents a road maintenance planning model that can be used to balance out maintenance cost and road user cost, since performing road maintenance at night can be convenient for road users but costly for highway agency. Based on the platfor... Read More about Road maintenance planning using network flow modelling.

Application of network traffic flow model to road maintenance (2015)
Journal Article
Yang, C., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. (2015). Application of network traffic flow model to road maintenance. Proceedings of the ICE - Transport, 168(3), https://doi.org/10.1680/tran.13.00067

The study shows how the evolution of two-way traffic flows on a local highway network can be predicted over time using a network-level traffic flow model (NTFM) to model both urban and motorway road networks. After a brief review of the main principl... Read More about Application of network traffic flow model to road maintenance.

Pavement maintenance scheduling using genetic algorithms (2015)
Journal Article
Yang, C., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Andrews, J. D. (2015). Pavement maintenance scheduling using genetic algorithms. International Journal of Performability Engineering, 11(2),

This paper presents a new pavement management system (PMS) to achieve the optimal pavement maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) strategy for a highway network using genetic algorithms (GAs). Optimal M&R strategy is a set of pavement activities that b... Read More about Pavement maintenance scheduling using genetic algorithms.

A fault detection method for railway point systems (2015)
Journal Article
Vileiniskis, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Rama, D. (2016). A fault detection method for railway point systems. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 230(3), https://doi.org/10.1177/0954409714567487

Failures of railway point systems (RPSs) often lead to service delays or hazardous situations. A condition monitoring system can be used by railway infrastructure operators to detect the early signs of the deteriorated condition of RPSs and thereby p...
