Title
Transport system simulation to support emission reduction
Goal
Build and run simulations to contribute to a major UK project on transport system decarbonization
Description
An ongoing project called TransiT (https://transit.ac.uk/) is exploring how 'DIgital Twins' can help the UK find ways to redesign aspects of its transport systems to reduce carbon emissions. In the transport-systems context, a 'Digital Twin' is basically a discrete-event simulation which might be used to, for example, investigate the effects of a new traffic light system at a major junction, or the impact of more frequent and cheaper bus services on traffic congestion. This student project will build and/or investigate a transport system or component in connection with the wider TransiT project. Details to be explored and devleoped in alignment with the student's particular skills or interests. The project will likely make use of (or further engineer) existing open source simulators such as MATSim.
