Activity-travel behavior modeling of pilgrims in mass religious gatherings
The number of participants in mass gatherings like Kumbh Mela is ever increasing. Simulations for pre-event crowd modeling, risk assessment, and control planning can help set up robust crowd management and control mechanisms. ... -
Analysis and Modelling of Activity-Travel Behaviour of Non-Workers from an Indian City
(2018-07-16)Indian cities have been witnessing rapid transformation due to the synergistic effect of industrialisation, flourishing-economy, motorisation, population explosion, and migration. The alarming increase in travel demand as ... -
Analysis, Modelling, and Optimization of Gate-To-Gate Aircraft Operation for Enhanced Air Traffic Management
The global air passenger demand will surpass the 10 billion mark by the end of 2040. India itself is poised to become the third largest aviation market and traffic generator by 2033, with a forecast of over 950 million ... -
Analyzing Inter-modal Competition Between High Speed Rail and Conventional Transport Modes in Indian Context
Indian Railway provides an important mode of public transport in India. This is the most commonly used and cost effective long-distance transport system of the country. Indian Railways has played an immense role in ... -
Developing Decision Support for Electric Vehicle (EV) Adoption & Charging Infrastructure Planning
Majorly reliant on petroleum products, the transportation sector accounts for 25% of the global energy demand and 23% of carbon dioxide emissions. Among all the modes of transportation, road vehicles are the primary sources ... -
Developing Frameworks for Evaluating Sustainable Transportation Measures in terms of Quality of Life
The transportation system is one of the main pillars impacting Quality of Life (QOL) as it fulfills people's basic needs by providing access to daily activities. Rapid urbanization, with more people migrating to urban areas ... -
Evaluating Climate Change Mitigation & Adaptation Potential of Sustainable Urban Transport Measures in India
The global climate is transforming due to increased GHG emissions. Globally, the response to climate change has been through mitigation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Urban transportation is the second leading source ... -
Investigating and Modelling the Microscopic Pedestrian Behavioral Dynamics in Mass Religious Gatherings
Pedestrian models that can realistically reproduce observed pedestrian movement dynamics are crucial in facility planning and pre-event planning of crowded situations. Despite the elaborate arrangements, crowd disasters ... -
Macroscopic crowd flow and risk modelling in mass religious gathering
Understanding the principles and applications of crowd dynamics in mass gatherings is very important, specifically with respect to crowd risk analysis and crowd safety. Historical trends from India and other countries ... -
Macroscopic modelling of heterogeneous, disordered road traffic flow
The groundwork for much of the existing traffic flow theory was laid in the 1950s and 1960s by researchers from developed economies like the United States. The car-following modelling approach, which is arguably the most ... -
