CE department adds transportation expertise
Nikolas Geroliminis
Nikolas Geroliminis joined the Department of Civil Engineering (CE) this semester as an assistant professor. His research is focused on developing more sustainable transportation systems by improving the use of existing facilities. Specific areas include modeling and estimation of travel times and other performance measures in arterials; location of emergency response vehicles in transportation networks; and urban transportation. His current research focuses on the macroscopic modeling of traffic flow for overcrowded cities.
He completed his doctorate in civil and environmental engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, last year.
