Journal Article
Meager, S., Kumar, V., Ekren, B., & Paddeu, D. (2020). Exploring the drivers and barriers to green supply chain management implementation: A study of independent UK restaurants. Procedia Manufacturing, 51(30th International Conference on Flexible Automation and Intelligent Manufacturing (FAIM2021)), 1642-1649. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.promfg.2020.10.229

This is an exploratory study into the drivers and barriers faced by independent restaurants when implementing green supply chain management (GSCM) practices. There is a limited evidence in the literature that attempts to explore GSCM implementation p...

The potential for automation to transform urban deliveries: Drivers, barriers and policy priorities (2020)
Book Chapter
Paddeu, D., & Parkhurst, G. (2020). The potential for automation to transform urban deliveries: Drivers, barriers and policy priorities. In B. van Wee, N. Thomopoulos, & M. Dimitris (Eds.), Policy Implications of Autonomous Vehicles. Elsevier

Urban freight transport is crucial to ensuring the economic vitality of a city. However, significant negative ‘externalities’ arise from freight flows in urban areas. Current solutions to reduce the impact of freight transport in urban areas aim at r...

The social perspective on policy towards local shared autonomous vehicle services (LSAVS) (2020)
Journal Article
Paddeu, D., Shergold, I., & Parkhurst, G. (2020). The social perspective on policy towards local shared autonomous vehicle services (LSAVS). Transport Policy, 98, 116-126. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tranpol.2020.05.013

The transport policy discourse posits Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAVs) as a more sustainable solution for the implementation of road automation technology. A successful implementation of SAV services strongly depends on being able to meet user's nee...

Autonomous vehicles: Who will use them, and will they share? (2020)
Journal Article
Clayton, W., Paddeu, D., Parkhurst, G., & Parkin, J. (2020). Autonomous vehicles: Who will use them, and will they share?. Transportation Planning and Technology, 43(4), 343-364. https://doi.org/10.1080/03081060.2020.1747200

The advent of road transport automation is suggested to be one of four key technological transitions that could amount to a major transformation in mobility practices. Specifically, fully Automated Vehicles (AVs) might replace the current private car... Read More about Autonomous vehicles: Who will use them, and will they share?.

Passenger comfort and trust on first-time use of a shared autonomous shuttle vehicle (2020)
Journal Article
