Biomimetic deployable structures (2018)
Thesis
Fenci, G. Biomimetic deployable structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

Modern architectural designs aim at creating dynamic and flexible spaces, able to adapt to the ever-changing environment by virtue of temporary and convertible structures. Biomimetics is the applied science that, through the imitation of nature, find... Read More about Biomimetic deployable structures.

Development of traffic micro-simulation model for motorway merges with ramp metering (2011)
Thesis
Al-Obaedi, J. Development of traffic micro-simulation model for motorway merges with ramp metering. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This thesis focuses on the development of a micro-simulation model for motorway merge
sections. The aim is to study the effectiveness of applying some traffic management
controls and particularly focuses on applying ramp metering (RM) systems.
T... Read More about Development of traffic micro-simulation model for motorway merges with ramp metering.

Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections (2011)
Thesis
Al-Jameel, H. Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Weaving sections have proved to cause bottlenecks on motorways because of the relatively
frequent lane changes in these sections. The use of analytical models in assessing weaving
section capacity (such as those suggested by the Highway Capacity Ma... Read More about Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections.

Hydraulic characteristics of siphonic roof drainage outlets (2008)
Thesis
Rains, J. Hydraulic characteristics of siphonic roof drainage outlets. (Thesis). University of Salford

Siphonic roof drainage uses an innovative hydraulic design to increase the efficiency of
rainwater disposal. The roof outlet is a critical component of the system and not only
promotes and sustains priming of the system but also controls the depth... Read More about Hydraulic characteristics of siphonic roof drainage outlets.

Development of traffic micro-simulation for on-street parking facilities (2005)
Thesis
Purnawan, P. Development of traffic micro-simulation for on-street parking facilities. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Observations at several on-street parking areas showed that parking and imparking
processes could produce severe traffic interruptions if parking locations were not designed
properly. This study is aimed to develop an on-street parking simulation... Read More about Development of traffic micro-simulation for on-street parking facilities.

Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes
Thesis
Nassrullah, Z. Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes. (Thesis). University of Salford

This study presents a newly developed micro-simulation model for motorway roadwork sections to evaluate the efficiency of different temporary traffic management schemes (TTMSs) such as the use of narrow lanes, offside and inside lane closures. The ef... Read More about Development of a micro-simulation model for motorway roadworks with the use of narrow lanes and lane closure schemes.
