Research summary

I have a range of research interests that fall broadly under the umbrella of transport geography, urban analytics and energy. Specifically, I am working on the following research themes. 

 

-Modelling the resilience of public transport networks 

-New transport technologies and services (electric vehicles, EV charging, MaaS, drones, etc.) 

-Spatial-temporal accessibility 

-Geospatial, machine learning and text mining techniques  

-Transport and energy  

 

Recently, I have been working on the accessibility of EV chargers and the resilience of railways to extreme weather events.
