About Me

Hello! I'm Dr. Suresh Nama, your guide in the world of transportation and civil engineering. Currently, I'm thrilled to be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Pimpri-Chinchwad College of Engineering, Pune. Beyond the classroom, I contribute insights to publications, sharing my passion for the evolving landscape of transportation engineering.

Journey and Roles:

My academic adventure includes key roles at prestigious institutions like IIT Guwahati, where I served as a Teaching Assistant while doing my Ph.D. At IIT Guwahati and IIT Roorkee, during 2015-2022 I took joy in demystifying the PTV-VISSIM software for budding engineers, fostering hands-on expertise in transportation engineering. 

Contributions and Publications:

I've left my mark in significant journals and conferences. Notable works include "Horizontal Curve Design for Four-Lane Highways In Mountainous Terrain Using Speed Harmony" (Journal of Transportation Engineering Part A: Systems) and "Development of Speed Distribution Model and Prediction of Geometric Parameter Influence on Driver Speed through Artificial Neural Network" (Journal of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies).
