This project will develop next-generation multimodal network resilience models. We will examine the performance of networked transportation systems in disrupted conditions using field data, generate mathematical models to describe system performance and user behavior, and develop mitigation strategies based on this model. This project is distinguished from previous efforts in this space by explicitly considering

Technology has evolved at a tremendous pace over the past decade, permeating into our everyday existence and affecting literally every aspect of our lives. Our activity-travel choices have been no exception in this regard, as we make continuous and joint decisions about which activities we can and want to undertake (either in-person or virtually). Add
In this research, we focus our investigation on the telemedicine adoption preferences of patients/consumers. Our comprehensive approach contributes to advancing the existing body of knowledge in five distinct ways. First, we use rigorous multivariate econometric models that accommodate multiple sociodemographic and built environment (BE) variables at once rather than simple bivariate correlations of determinant factors

The U.S. Census conducts three different annual surveys that provide insight into transportation analysts regarding travel behaviors and travel trends. Each of these surveys has a multi-decade history enabling analysts to discern changes over time. Survey data for the calendar year 2022 is now available with transportation-relevant information presented below. The dramatic transportation impact of
