Effects of Timetable Change on Job Accessibility
Published 2018-09-13Accessibility is often not a performance measure for transit services. This study is conducted following the introduction of new timetables which intended to improve passenger throughput for Sydney’s transit services, but ...Open AccessPreprint -
Travel Cost and Dropout from Secondary Schools in Nepal
Published 2017-09-01The study relates the association between travel time to the lower secondary and secondary public schools of Nepal and the dropout grade before leaving secondary school using an ordered logit model. It is shown that as the ...Open AccessPreprint -
Topology polymorphism graph for lung tumor segmentation in PET-CT images
Published 2013-01-01Accurate lung tumor segmentation is problematic when the tumor boundary or edge, which reflects the advancing edge of the tumor, is difficult to discern on chest CT or PET. We propose a ‘topo-poly’ graph model to improve ...Open AccessArticle -
Static friction between rigid fractal surfaces
Published 2015-09-17Using spheropolygon-based simulations and contact slope analysis, we investigate the effects of surface topography and atomic scale friction on the macroscopically observed friction between rigid blocks with fractal surface ...Open AccessArticle -
A numerical study of bioinspired nacre-like composite plates under blast loading
Published 2015-08-01In this paper, a multi-layered composite inspired by the hierarchical structure of nacre and made of layers of aluminium alloy AA 7075 bonded with toughened epoxy resin is introduced for blast resistant applications. The ...Open AccessArticle
