RAIN Project flies overseas: it was presented in Washington D.C. in September 2015
Beatriz Martinez Pastor is a PhD student in the Department of Civil Engineering at Trinity College Dublin whose work within the RAIN project consists of developing mathematical models to assess resilience in transport networks under extreme weather conditions. She attended to the First International Conference on Surface Transportation System Resilience to Climate Change and Extreme Weather Events in Washington D.C. in September 2015 to present her research. Dr William Brazil also attended the event to present a poster on the research being undertaken by the RAIN project assessing the role of transport information in extreme weather events. Similar presentations were given at the annual meeting of the Irish Transport Research Network Conference in Galway in August 2015, funded by RAIN project.
