TRB Workshop on Doctoral Research in Transportation Modeling and Travel Behavior
The workshop was organized in two parts. The first part dealed with the topics Travel Demand, Travel Behavior, TNCs, AVs and Auto Ownership. The second part focused on Traffic Assignments, Network Analyses, Operations, Management, Safety and Air Travel. Within each part, every doctoral researcher gave a 5 min lightning talk to introduce her or his topic. Towards the end of both parts, there was a poster session to discuss individual research in more detail.
