AI-Driven Transport Systems Expert | Rail Freight, Urban Logistics & Sustainability Research

Profile Summary

I am a PhD researcher in Transportation and Logistics with expertise in sustainable freight transport, rail freight operations, urban logistics, artificial intelligence, and intelligent transportation systems. My work focuses on developing innovative solutions for transport decarbonization, digitalization, and operational optimization, with particular emphasis on rail-enabled urban logistics, AI-driven virtual coupling, digital twins, and net-zero mobility systems. I hold advanced academic training in transport and logistics and have extensive experience conducting interdisciplinary research that combines operations research, machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), fuzzy logic, simulation modeling, geographic information systems (GIS), and data analytics. My research aims to bridge the gap between theoretical innovation and practical implementation in sustainable transportation systems. My previous and ongoing research projects include rail-enabled urban logistics systems, parcel delivery optimization, railway freight integration, micro-hub and parcel locker networks, AI-driven railway traffic management, digital twins for rail operations, sustainable last-mile delivery, carbon pricing impacts on freight transport, and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). I have developed simulation and optimization frameworks to evaluate transport policies, operational strategies, and emerging logistics concepts under economic, environmental, and capacity constraints. I have experience in quantitative and qualitative research methods, experimental design, stakeholder engagement, case study development, decision-support systems, and policy analysis. My work has resulted in peer-reviewed scientific publications, international conference presentations, and collaborative projects involving universities, transport operators, public authorities, and industry stakeholders. My technical skills include Python, machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning (PPO), GIS analysis, simulation modeling, optimization, data visualization, statistical analysis, and decision-support tool development. I am particularly interested in projects related to sustainable mobility, freight transport, railway systems, AI applications, transport policy, smart cities, digital infrastructure, and logistics innovation. I am available for research collaboration, expert consultation, AI model evaluation, transportation analysis, logistics optimization, technical writing, and interdisciplinary projects requiring advanced analytical and domain expertise.
