This dissertation communicates results from three different studies on emissions reductions, charging infrastructure, and travel behavior associated with plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs).
This study explores the factors that affect the use of ridehailing services as well as the adoption of shared (pooled) ridehailing using data collected in California in fall 2018 using a cross-sectional travel survey.
This study used a spatial economic model developed for the Sacramento region and an advanced travel demand model to simulate a land use and transportation plan from 2014 to 2030.
This research draws on a behavioral theory, systematic review of available vehicle cost calculators (VCCs), and user research with three VCCs to articulate design recommendations for effective VCCs.
This talk presented behavioral analysis approaches that focus on modeling and influencing trends of travel behavior with an objective of developing tools to guide this transformation towards a more sustainable, efficient, and equitable system.

This white paper discusses a potential "Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Peak" for the 21st century. It presents a research agenda designed to clarify the reasons for the current VMT peak and to assess the implications for future passenger travel demand in the U.S.
