Presentation / Conference
Prestwood, E., Calvert, T., Clayton, W., Longhurst, J., Manchester, H., Parkhurst, G., …Townsend, I. (2017, June). Barriers to a better Bristol: Diagnosing city strategic sustainability challenges using systems, co-production and interdisciplinary approaches. Paper presented at Wessex 9th International Conference on Sustainable Development and Planning, Bristol, England

As European Green Capital 2015 and one of the Rockefeller 100 Resilient Cities, Bristol can legitimately claim to be on the “frontline” of urban sustainability, continually challenging itself to transform into a place where citizens and organisations...

The influence of urban built environments and place perceptions on psychological wellbeing and cognition during walking (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Bornioli, A., Parkhurst, G., & Morgan, P. (2017, April). The influence of urban built environments and place perceptions on psychological wellbeing and cognition during walking. Paper presented at American Association of Geographers (AAG) Annual Conference, Boston, Massachusetts

Scholars have identified several elements related to the physical surroundings that positively contribute to psychological wellbeing during walking. Among these, the benefits of natural elements have received extensive attention in the literature. Ho...

Appendix A: White Paper - Decarbonizing transport for a sustainable future: Mitigating impacts of the changing climate (2017)
Book Chapter
Greene, D. L., & Parkhurst, G. (2017). Appendix A: White Paper - Decarbonizing transport for a sustainable future: Mitigating impacts of the changing climate. In Conference Proceedings 54: Decarbonizing Transport for a Sustainable Future: Mitigating Impacts of the Changing Climate (30-60). Washington DC: Transportation Research Board

Mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is essential to preventing dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. The recent Paris Agreement reaffirmed the long-standing view of scientists that it is critical to keep the increase bel...

Manual takeover and handover of a simulated fully autonomous vehicle within urban and extra urban settings (2017)
Book Chapter
Morgan, P., Alford, C., Williams, C., Parkhurst, G., & Pipe, A. G. (2017). Manual takeover and handover of a simulated fully autonomous vehicle within urban and extra urban settings. In N. A. Stanton (Ed.), Advances in Human Aspects of Transportation: Proceedings of the AHFE 2017 International Conference on Human Factors in Transportation (760-771). Springer

Relatively little is known about human behavior and performance when retaking control of highly autonomous vehicles (AVs) at different speeds and under varied driving conditions. Past research has tended to focus on long periods of high-speed extra-u... Read More about Manual takeover and handover of a simulated fully autonomous vehicle within urban and extra urban settings.
