Transport
Transport is an essential infrastructure in our everyday lives from roads to railway to air. Modelling and simulation play an important role in advancing transport infrastructure. DAFNI works with many different collaborators, ranging from universities through to Transport for London, on numerous projects to identify potential barriers, test resilience, and accelerate the effective running of transport.

Other Research Areas
Mr Adrian Hickford, University of Southampton
DAFNI and the transport research community
Adrian will carry out advocacy and community-based work to develop and strengthen relationships with transport bodies and researchers regionally and nationally to promote how the NISMOD transport model running on DAFNI can be applied in different areas.

Dr Juste Raimbault, UCL
Integrating the MATSim multi-agent transport simulation framework into DAFNI
Juste will develop the MATSim model to apply it to the current Covid crisis, using the EpiSim model to add pandemic indicators to travel indicators and to model them on DAFNI.
