Transport and Mobility
Enquiries to: Colin Axon, Institute of Energy Futures, colin.axon@brunel.ac.uk
Transport and mobility are an integral part of resource efficient cities and have never been more important. For example, air quality, autonomous vehicles, and infrastructure are at the top of the agenda in many countries. Furthermore, it is clear that tackling the issues for the 21st^ century requires collaboration across disparate disciplines. We have people actively working on transport issues key to national and international prosperity, and it is a growing area of research for us.
Our research covers the social, engineering, and health sciences. Details of our main areas of expertise are: Air quality emissions control, and health effects: Road vehicles Technologies for autonomous vehicles: Logistics: Systems modelling and data analytics: Access and social inclusion: Resilient infrastructure including embedded sensors and ICT:
