Modern Applications of Graph Theory (2021)
Book
Zverovich, V. (2021). Modern Applications of Graph Theory. Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press

This book discusses many cutting-edge applications of graph theory, such as traffic networks, navigable networks and optimal routing for emergency response, placement of electric vehicle charging stations, and graph-theoretic methods in molecular epi...

The likelihood of Braess' paradox in traffic networks (2018)
Book Chapter
Zverovich, V. The likelihood of Braess' paradox in traffic networks. In Modern Applications of Graph Theory. Manuscript submitted for publication

The well-known Braess' paradox illustrates situations when adding a new link to a traffic network might increase congestion in the network. In this article, we announce a number of new results devoted to the probability of Braess' paradox to occur in... Read More about The likelihood of Braess' paradox in traffic networks.

A dynamic approach for evacuees’ distribution and optimal routing in hazardous environments (2018)
Journal Article
Boguslawski, P., Mahdjoubi, L., Zverovich, V., & Fadli, F. (2018). A dynamic approach for evacuees’ distribution and optimal routing in hazardous environments. Automation in Construction, 94, 11-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2018.05.032

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. In a complex built environment, the situation changes rapidly during an emergency event. Typically, available systems rely heavily on a static scenario in the calculation of safest routes for evacuation. In addition, egress route...

Analytic prioritization of indoor routes for search and rescue operations in hazardous environments (2017)
Journal Article
Zverovich, V., Mahdjoubi, L., Boguslawski, P., & Fadli, F. (2017). Analytic prioritization of indoor routes for search and rescue operations in hazardous environments. Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, 32(9), 727-747. https://doi.org/10.1111/mice.12260

Applications to prioritize indoor routes for emergency situations in a complex built facility have been restricted to building simulations and network approaches. These types of applications often failed to account for the complexity and trade-offs...

Automated construction of variable density navigable networks in a 3D indoor environment for emergency response (2016)
Journal Article
Boguslawski, P., Mahdjoubi, L., Zverovich, V., & Fadli, F. (2016). Automated construction of variable density navigable networks in a 3D indoor environment for emergency response. Automation in Construction, 72(2), 115-128. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2016.08.041

Widespread human-induced or natural threats on buildings and their users have made preparedness and quick response as crucial issues for saving human lives. Available information about an emergency scene, e.g. the building structure, material and tra...

Two-graph building interior representation for emergency response applications (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Boguslawski, P., Mahdjoubi, L., Zverovich, V., & Fadli, F. (2016, July). Two-graph building interior representation for emergency response applications. Paper presented at XXIII ISPRS Congress 2016

Nowadays, in a rapidly developing urban environment with bigger and higher public buildings, disasters causing emergency situations and casualties are unavoidable. Preparedness and quick response are crucial issues saving human lives. Available infor... Read More about Two-graph building interior representation for emergency response applications.

CUBER: Critical Urban Buildings Emergency Response (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Mahdjoubi, L., Zverovich, V., Boguslawski, P., & Fadli, F. (2016, June). CUBER: Critical Urban Buildings Emergency Response. Poster presented at The VC’s Staff Excellence Awards, UWE Bristol, UK

When human-induced disasters (i.e. terrorist attacks, social unrest, fires), as well as natural disasters (i.e. floods, earthquake, climate change) take place in complex buildings, a short delay in response to an incident or a major event may mean a...
