5th IMA Conference on Mathematics in Transport

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Students may apply for bursaries to cover their conference fee. Please email conferences@ima.org.uk with your status (full or part-time); date of completion of studies; and a short paragraph (100 words) to support your case.

CALL FOR PAPERS

The conference will bring together academics and practitioners with an interest in the application of mathematics within all aspects of transport planning, management and analysis. Papers are sought that describe novel applications of mathematical or statistical methods applied to any mode or form of transport.

Topics to be included within the conference will apply branches of mathematics such as

• Statistical or mathematical analysis of real or theoretical systems
• Developments of solution, optimisation or control algorithms
• Improved approaches to planning, scheduling or operations management
• Representation and modelling of complex systems

to any mode or aspect of transport including (but not limited to) safety, energy, robustness, routing, tolling, signals, vehicle dynamics, logistics, reliability, environmental impact, demand responsive systems, crowd dynamics, choice modelling, distributed intelligence or mixed-mode flows.
