Transport vulnerability and I
My first introduction to the field of transport vulnerability was when I read Katja Berdica’s article on road vulnerability, which in turn inspired my own research into why vulnerability and reliability should be considered as a decision factor in infrastructure development.
INSTR and I
Having read the book that contained the papers from the 1st Symposium on Transportation Network Reliability, I was inspired to present a paper at the 2nd International Symposium on Transportation Network Reliability in Christchurch, New Zealand in 2004. Busy with other research, I only attended the 3rd and skipped the 4th symposium, but perhaps I will attend this one? I hope so.
INSTR2012 – Topics
The scope of the 5th symposium includes all aspects of analysis and design to improve network reliability, including:
- User perception of unreliability and vulnerability
- Public policy and reliability of travel times
- The valuation of reliability
- The economics of reliability
- Network reliability modeling and estimation
- Transport network robustness
- Reliability of public transportation
- Travel behavior under uncertainty
- Vehicle routing and scheduling under uncertainty
- Risk evaluation and management for transportation networks
- ITS to improve network reliability
