Jishnu Narayan

Research Fellow in Transport Modelling

Jishnu’s research focus on transport systems modeling with a focus on planning and operations of public transport and emerging mobility systems, their dynamics with users (demand-supply interactions with equilibrium models), crowd behavior modeling (wayfinding/route-choice and evacuation modeling), and the application of such models to make transport systems more efficient and sustainable.
