Graduate Research Project

This research will investigate the effectiveness of a gasoline particulate filter (GPF) and finding ways to improve the existing technology.

This project studies pollutant particle size distribution at near-road locations. The researcher examines the size, concentration, and mobility of pollutant particles.

This project studies long-distance and intercity travel behavior through looking at individuals' social network geographies.

This study aims to identify the differential oxidation pathways for biodiesel prepared from virgin soybean feedstock to that of recycled waste vegetable oil given that feedstock choice and processing are significant parts of the fuel’s lifecycle analysis.

This research will develop plausible scenarios for land-based passenger mobility over a ten-year horizon leading to 2030, and evaluate potential outcomes and impacts.

This research will focus on reconstructing fundamental diagrams of heterogeneous traffic from trajectory data.

The proposed research examines the financial state of the practice for sidewalk asset management in the United States, taking economic, social and legal costs into consideration.

This project integrates transit signal priority into Simulation of Urban Mobility. Results from the study could inform more efficient bus operations.

The purpose of this research was to develop new models of downtown rush-hour traffic congestion that account for traffic jams, with the goal of developing a numerical solution for the “bathtub model” of rush-hour traffic dynamics.

This research incorporates the traffic dynamics when considering the sensor location problem, which makes use of the valuable flow-time relation.
