I aim to leverage my expertise in transportation engineering and microsimulation modeling to enhance sustainable urban mobility and improve traffic operations. My goal is to develop innovative strategies for optimizing multimodal transportation networks and integrating emerging mobility solutions.

• Optimizing Traffic Signal Control: A Comparative Analysis of Fully-Actuated, Actuated-Coordinated, and Customized Models

Evaluated and compared three traffic signal control models to optimize traffic flow on a Cedar Rapids corridor using VISSIM and Vistro. 

• Safety Management and Countermeasure Evaluation for Crashes in Southeast Michigan

Analyzed crash data using the Empirical Bayes method to identify high-risk areas and propose countermeasures to reduce crashes.

• Evaluating E-Scooters as a Sustainable Alternative to Motor Vehicles in Atlanta Using VISSIM Micro-Simulation

Simulated e-scooter integration into Atlanta’s urban traffic network and analyzed its impact on travel times, delays, and queue lengths. 

• Pedestrian Underpass: Improved Connectivity within BUET

 Designed a pedestrian underpass to improve connectivity and safety within the BUET campus using structural analysis with ETABS.
