Capacity building of disaster waste management for disaster risk reduction
Presentation / Conference
Karunasena, G., Amaratunga, R., & Haigh, R. Capacity building of disaster waste management for disaster risk reduction. Presented at COBRA 2010, Paris

Natural hazards are extreme events that could cause harm on both socio-economic and ecological systems which ultimately become major disasters. Therefore, identification of vulnerabilities and risks of major hazards are important for any country. Sri...

Traffic operations at on-street parking facilities
Journal Article
Yousif, S., & Purnawan. Traffic operations at on-street parking facilities. Proceedings of the ICE - Transport, 157(3), 189-194. https://doi.org/10.1680/tran.2004.157.3.189

This study reports on the findings based on observations
from sites with parallel and angle parking layouts. The
main parameters under consideration were the
manoeuvre time for parking or unparking and the gap
acceptance to merge into the traffic... Read More about Traffic operations at on-street parking facilities.
