About me

Shrey Agrawal

PhD Student

Transporation Engineering,

Department of Civil Engineering,

Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India.

Prime Minister's Research Fellow (PMRF) 2021-2025.

Working with Dr. Venkatesan Kanagaraj (Thesis Supervisor), we are developing continuum traffic flow models for both ordered and disordered traffic systems. My research advances the understanding of lane-free traffic through data-driven modeling and macroscopic analysis. By integrating UAV-based trajectory data with mathematical modeling and optimisation techniques, I aim to enhance traffic efficiency, reduce congestion, and contribute to the development of intelligent and sustainable urban mobility systems.

Research Interest

Traffic Flow Theory
Connected and Autonomous Vehicles
Crowd Dynamics
