About UNSW Sydney
UNSW is one of Australia’s most research-intensive universities which ranks 45th in the 2017 QS World University Rankings and 78th in the 2016-2017 Times Higher Education World University Rankings. The main UNSW campus is located on a 38-hectare site at Kensington, 7 kilometres from the centre of Sydney and 3 kilometres from Coogee beach. Scholarship information PhD project: Pedestrian network modelling Required skills: Advanced MATLAB and Python programming, good knowledge of dynamic transportation network models and traffic flow theory Preferred education background: Transportation engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, or operations research Scholarship amount: $27,082 per year plus a possible top up and conference travel grant Duration: 3 years Closing date: June 2018 Project Summary This PhD project aims to advance theory of pedestrian traffic flow and develop new mathematical and computational methodologies to model pedestrian networks. While the microscopic and macroscopic dynamics of pedestrian traffic are widely studied, dynamics of pedestrian traffic at the network level are less understood. In this project, the PhD student is expected to develop new techniques to model anisotropic pedestrian movements in a network while accounting for sidewalk crowding, crossing delay, bi-directionality of pedestrian motion and other realistic properties of pedestrian networks. The project requires extensive computer programming and applied mathematics. Contact Potential applicants are encouraged to send their complete CV and contact information for three references to Dr. Meead Saberi <meead.saberi@unsw.edu.au> before the closing date.
