Contribution of manufacturing issues to the development of high impact wheels
The project aims to determine whether there is a link between high impact wheels and residual stresses linked to the initial wheel manufacturing process.
Strategy for optimising battery life-cycles
This project will focus in developing a strategy to optimise the useful life of batteries (from sizing, use and transition between applications – such as from locomotive to fixed storage and then waste).
Improving Unplanned Tram Disruption Management
This project will explore unplanned disruptions and their management in tram systems through identifying global best practices in unplanned disruptions management, better understand passenger experience and priorities for improvement in unplanned tram disruptions.
Dynamic scheduling of public transport drivers and services to respond to disruptions
This project will focus in development of vehicle scheduling and dynamic rescheduling approach to respond to disruptions.
