Understanding passenger and freight travel behaviour are critical for transportation system analysis and operational planning that need to account for supply and demand dynamics. However, describing and predicting the behaviour of agents is extremely challenging. Sophisticated mathematical models are required to better represent individuals’ or firms’ decisions among mutually exclusive alternatives. The broad goal of my research is to better understand the interplay of agent behaviour with engineering, investment, and policy choices for energy-efficient transportation technologies.
