Scientific research directions:
- “Optimization of road network and pedestrian-traffic flows parameters and organization of road transportation” (state registration number 0113U001348 from 2013 to 2018);
- “Road transport systems optimization and road safety increas” (state registration number 0118U000348 from 2018 to 2022).
Main scientific directions:
- Signalized intersections functioning studying;
- Traffic control systems development using fuzzy logic approaches, considering dangerous goods transportation;
- Research of drivers` psychophysiological features in difficult road situations
- Research and optimization of urban passenger transport systems functioning taking into account intermodal routes.
The department has the research laboratory №123, which is equipped with traffic flow simulation modern software (PTV Vision VISSIM), signalized and unsignalized intersections parameters calculation (LISA +), cargo and passenger transportation development and optimization (PTV Vision VISUM).
