Poverty and transport in the Global South: An Overview
(2019)The primary objective of the United Nations Development Programme to 2030 is to lift more than 736 million people out of extreme poverty (UN, 2019). In this sense, this paper addresses the potential contributions of transport ... -
Pozzolanic and Cementing Activity of Raw and Pyro-Processed Saudi Arabian Red Mud (RM) Waste
(2021)This paper investigates the composition, properties and reactivity of a red mud waste generated in Saudi Arabia with a view to find alternative materials to replace construction binders of high environmental impact. The ... -
Pozzolanic and hydraulic activity of bauxite for binder production
(2022)Bauxite is mainly used to produce aluminium and calcium aluminate cements. Both applications carry high environmental impacts. However, the carbon emissions generated from mining bauxite (3–5 kg CO2e/t) are negligible when ... -
Pre and post Covid preferences for working from home
(2024)Working from home (WFH) is being seen as a potential solution to many contemporary problems from congestion to global warming and work-life balance. Since the 1970 s, it was assumed that when information technology ... -
Predicting the Compactability of Artificially Cemented Fine‑Grained Soils Blended with Waste‑Tire‑Derived Aggregates
(2023)This study investigates the possibility of extending the specific gravity ratio (SGR) modeling framework, originally developed for predicting the compaction properties of unamended fine-grained soils (with no binder) ... -
Prediction of indoor air exposure from outdoor air quality using an artificial neural network model for inner city commercial buildings
(2015)NO 2 and particulate matter are the air pollutants of most concern in Ireland , with possible links to the high er respiratory and cardiovascular mortality and morbidity rates found in the ... -
Prediction of Traffic-Related Nitrogen Oxides Concentrations using Structural Time Series Models
(2011)Ambient air quality monitoring, modeling and compliance to the standards set by European Union (EU) directives and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines are required to ensure the protection of human and environmental ... -

Probabilistic sensitivity analysis of offshore wind turbines using a transformed Kullback-Leibler divergence
(2019)Characterizing uncertainty in complex systems is steadily growing as a topic of interest. One of the efficient ways to characterize a complex system is achieved by probabilistic sensitivity analysis. In the context of this ... -
Progressive Collapse in Multi-Storey Steel Frames: The Effect of Varying Column Spacing
(2011)Following the collapse of the Ronan Point apartment tower, provisions to minimise the potential for progressive collapse were introduced in design codes for the first time. In recent years, the increased threat of terrorism ... -
Properties of Alkali Activated Materials made with bauxite refining residue (red mud-RM) and blends of RM with fly ash (FA)
(ISBN: 978-989-54499-3-4, 2023)A bauxite refining residue (RM), both alone and blended with FA at 30% and 50%, is activated with alkalis (Na2SiO3 and Na2SiO3/NaOH) to produce geopolymer cements. Alkali-activated materials (AAMs)/geopolymers are a more ... -
The provision of on street passenger information via real time passenger information; a case study of Dublin
(IEE,, 2004)In June 2001 Dublin Bus introduced a real time passenger information (RTPI) system on the first of its eleven quality bus corridors (QBC), on the Lucan QBC. The introduction is part of a three-year pilot programme called ...
