Using agent-based modelling for investigating the impact of travel behaviour interventions on mode shift
The present study examines the impact of various strategic interventions on behavioural changes from private car use to sustainable travel modes in Dublin City, using an agent-based modelling (ABM) approach with a particular focus on soft policy (i.e., cycling promotion campaigns and travel feedback programs) and hard policy (i.e., motor tax and fuel price increments) measures. Utilising the Irish National Household Travel Survey (NHTS), we analy…
The equity impact of bike-sharing on developing X-minute cities
Evaluating soft travel behaviour interventions using behavioural stages of change within an agent-based modelling framework
The effectiveness of interventions that aim to change travel behaviour is usually measured by the sudden shift from pre- to post-intervention. However, this binary perspective overlooks the gradual evolution of an individual’s travel behaviour over time. Our study challenges this paradigm and suggests the behavioural stages approach as a more precise tool for evaluating the efficacy of ‘soft’ travel behaviour interventions—those designed to influ…

A systematic review and meta-analysis of residential and transport energy poverty
Planning equitable on-street residential EV charging infrastructure
The growing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) presents challenges to the equitable deployment of charging infrastructure. Ensuring equitable access to residential charging stations is critical for supporting widespread EV adoption across diverse communities. As such, research on applying charging equity theories to the placement of residential charging stations remains essential. Based on the Irish national household travel survey and census da…
Improving Child Wellbeing
This paper investigates whether transport and residential energy poverty affect the educational and mental health outcomes of children and young people in Ireland. Existing research on residential energy poverty has demonstrated that children are more likely to present with health and behavioural issues when living in poorer housing conditions, such as a lack of heating. However, there is a significant gap in the literature in understanding the r…
Academic Advising in Civil Engineering
A project to formalise and expand Academic Advising has been implemented at the UCD Civil Engineering School. The goals of this project were twofold: on the one hand, it aimed at training faculty members in Academic Advising roles and providing them with the necessary resources. On the other hand, the project sought to expand student interaction, in particular by engaging students informally in order to build a rapport between them and the academ…
