Urban freight shifts: Analysis of current trends & uncertain future
A wrap-up of the “Scenario developments for forecasting urban freight shifts” project, including downloadable copies of its final reports.
Sustainable last kilometre food and beverage delivery in Perth
This project will define the last kilometre freight challenges and opportunities in Perth/Peel, specifically focusing on the food and beverage sector.
Micromobility and freight: Exploring opportunities in WA
This project will consider the applicability and potential for micromobility to assist with the last mile freight task in the Perth CBD and other urban areas in WA.
3P vehicle design and prototype
This project consists of designing and prototyping of a 12-seat electric bus with the flexibility to transport people and parcels more efficiently and sustainably.
Last mile van delivery planning and optimisation
Development of systems of classifying street networks & local terrain & delivery density, where a mix of delivery modes may improve on mono-modal delivery.
Jun Li – iMOVE PhD student
Jun Li’s PhD project with iMOVE is ‘Autonomous mobile lockers for city logistics’. Here is more information on that research, and of her academic journey.
Integrated last mile network design for parcel delivery
This PhD project aims to help parcel delivery companies thrive in a competitive environment with a strategic approach to last mile network, & fleet composition.
Hybrid drone/truck last mile delivery planning for e-groceries
In this PhD project multiple trucks, each of which is equipped with drones, will via simulation deliver grocery purchases in parallel to customers.
Scenario developments for forecasting urban freight shifts
This project will develop a framework/tool for forecasting future scenarios of urban freight in informing planning and regulation (transport and land use).
Evaluating urban freight impacts via sustainable alternatives
This PhD project proposes an urban distribution model based on the combination of a logistics platform and a network of Mobile Depots that use light vehicles.
WEBINAR: Optimising our freight networks in disruptive times
How will the freight and logistics sector meet the evolving demands being placed on our supply chains, and how to do this in the most efficient manner?
Co-modality: Making use of public transport to carry freight
A feasibility study looking at the possibility of diverting some freight tasks from the road network to utilising spare capacity on public transport.
Smart shared mobility and potential implications for levels of congestion
Professor David Hensher discusses whether shared transport options will indeed reduce congestion, and the roles of autonomous vehicles and public transport in the new mobility ecosystem.
