Position Paper: The Usefulness of Data-driven, Intelligent Agent-Based Modelling for Transport Infrastructure Management (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Faboya, O., Figueredo, G. P., Ryan, B., & Siebers, P. (2018). Position Paper: The Usefulness of Data-driven, Intelligent Agent-Based Modelling for Transport Infrastructure Management. In The 21st IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (144-149). https://doi.org/10.1109/ITSC.2018.8569946

The uneven utilisation of modes of transport has a big impact on traffic in transport pathway infrastrutures. For motor vehicles for instance, this situation explains rapid road deterioration and the large amounts of money invested in maintenance and...

How do travellers decide: a stochastic modelling approach to determine decision factor significance (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Olusola, F. T., Siebers, O., Ryan, B., & Figueredo, G. P. (2018). How do travellers decide: a stochastic modelling approach to determine decision factor significance

Many factors are involved in travellers' mode choice decision processes. Such factors include individuals' physical, cognitive, and emotional abilities, which play a significant role in travellers' attitude and mode usage patterns. Understanding how...

Classifying Normal and Suspicious Behaviours When Accessing Public Locations (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Ryan, B., & Vijayan, A. (2018). Classifying Normal and Suspicious Behaviours When Accessing Public Locations. In IEA 2018: Proceedings of the 20th Congress of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA 2018), 101-112. doi:10.1007/978-3-319-96074-6_11

In order to identify and respond appropriately to suspicious behaviour in public locations, it can be important to understand the typical behaviours in a particular setting. An observation study has been carried out at two libraries to explore the en... Read More about Classifying Normal and Suspicious Behaviours When Accessing Public Locations.

Readiness to Change: Perceptions of Safety Culture up and down the Supply Chain (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Stiles, S., Ryan, B., & Golightly, D. (2018). Readiness to Change: Perceptions of Safety Culture up and down the Supply Chain. In IEA 2018: Proceedings of the 20th Congress of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA 2018) Volume II: Safety and Health, Slips, Trips and Falls (213-223). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-96089-0_24

Safety culture research tends to treat organisations as a single body, with less focus on understanding how perceptions vary in a multi stakeholder environment. One such example of a multi-stakeholder environment is a construction project. The succes... Read More about Readiness to Change: Perceptions of Safety Culture up and down the Supply Chain.

Network Rail is a large rail engineering company sitting within a complex industrial landscape. That said, Britain’s railways are the safest they have ever been. However, it is acknowledged that there is still room for improvement in safety and oper... Read More about Getting the Right Culture to Make Safety Systems Work in a Complex Rail Industry.

Collecting evidence from distributed sources to evaluate railway suicide and trespass prevention measures (2018)
Journal Article

It can be difficult to select from available safety preventative measures, especially where there is limited evidence of effectiveness in different contexts. This paper describes application of a method to identify and evaluate wide-ranging preventat...
