Former Higher Degree Research Students

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Ali’s PhD dissertation developed a Complete LAne-Changing Decision (CLACD) modelling framework that explains both the mandatory and discretionary lane-changing behaviours and describes lane-changing behaviours in both the traditional and connected environments.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Getu Segni Tulu’s PhD thesis focuses on pedestrian safety in Ethiopia, where 50-60% of traffic fatalities are pedestrians. The research aims to identify the causes and contributing factors to pedestrian crashes.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Jason Deller’s PhD thesis explores the complex relationship between roadway design and operating speeds, and how drivers respond to roadway design characteristics.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Hasti Tajtehranifard’s PhD thesis deals with the problem of traffic congestion caused by traffic incidents in metropolitan areas.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Basu’s PhD thesis investigates the influences of the built environment factors on walking route preference and safety. Her research studied the perceptions and preferences of pedestrian route choice in a typical suburban environment in Australia through a stated preference survey.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Trespalacios’s PhD thesis explores the mechanisms of compensatory behaviours in mobile phone distracted driving, which is a major cause of road accidents. He uses models of human behavioural adaptation and integrates driving behaviour models to develop a new model.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Mohammad Saifuzzaman’s PhD thesis aims to investigate the effect of distraction on car-following (CF) behaviour and proposes a new methodology to incorporate risk-taking and driver errors in CF modelling.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Rusli’s PhD thesis examined the characteristics of road traffic crashes on rural mountainous roads and compared these with the characteristics of crashes on roads located in non-mountainous areas.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Saeed’s PhD thesis was focused on understanding freeway traffic flow dynamics and their safety implication with a special focus on the role of human factors.

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Arun’s PhD thesis introduces a new Road User Safety Field Theory to proactively assess traffic safety by studying the interactions of various road users at signalised intersections.

 

Former Higher Degree Research Student

Dr. Amir’s PhD thesis reviews the theoretical assumptions underlying blackspot identification in transportation research, identifies gaps in the literature, and proposes a multiple risk source methodology for detecting motor vehicle crash blackspots.
