Impact of traffic management strategies on air quality and health in a Portuguese urban area
(Corresponding) Silveira C., Ferreira J., Lopes D., Miranda A.
Topic:
Air pollution
This paper aims to assess the air quality improvement and resulting health implications in a Portuguese urban area, by testing traffic management scenarios focused on nitrogen dioxide (NO2) emission reduction. To that end, an integrated multiscale modelling system was developed and applied for a...Read more

An Agent Based Modelling tool exploring decision-making processes for flood risk management
(Corresponding) Koutiva I., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
Cities at risk of extreme hydro-meteorological events need to be prepared to decrease the extent of the impacts. However, the majority usually reacts to the catastrophe, having failed to proactively prepare against extremes. This can be a result of both absent structural protection measures and...Read more

An Agent-Based Modelling approach to assess risk in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS).
(Corresponding) Koutiva I., Moraitis G., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Disaster risk reduction and management
The classic approach to risk assessment in civil engineering infrastructure (incl. water systems) often takes an incomplete view of the socio-technical system and its cyber-physical extensions, thus confining the ability to properly quantify the level of risk. To tackle this limitation and enhance...Read more
