Modelling drivers’ behaviour within the dilemma zone at traffic signal junctions (2018)
Thesis
Al-Mukaram, N. (in press). Modelling drivers’ behaviour within the dilemma zone at traffic signal junctions. (Thesis). University of Salford

The current study introduces a newly developed, calibrated, and validated micro-simulation model for predicting drivers’ decisions following the onset of an amber traffic light signal under the effect of the dilemma zone where a driver can neither st...

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.

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 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.
