About me

Hi!

I'm Shrey Agrawal

PhD Student, Transporation Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, IIT Kanpur. Prime Minister's Research Fellow (PMRF) May 2021. 

Working with Dr. Venkatesan Kanagaraj (Thesis Supervisor), developing Continuum traffic flow models for ordered and disordered traffic.

Research Interest


Research Overview


My research focuses on developing advanced traffic flow models for both ordered and disordered traffic systems, where traffic is treated as a continuum. Current 1D models fall short in accurately simulating the complex, lane-free dynamics characteristic of disordered traffic, marked by weak lane discipline and significant lateral vehicle movements. By creating more comprehensive models, this research aims to enhance traffic system planning and management, ultimately reducing congestion, travel time, and environmental impacts.
