Research examines how transportation technologies affect social equity and urban form, with emphasis on pedestrian wellbeing, autonomous vehicle adoption, parking policy, and community-centered planning. Recent publications demonstrate strong focus on psychophysiological impacts of urban walking, cross-cultural mobility studies, and spatial analysis of transportation preferences.

Articles show consistent themes: urban walkability (especially health impacts), autonomous vehicle integration, parking policy analysis using novel data sources, and community-centered planning approaches. Methodologically, employs mixed methods including biometric sensing, sentiment analysis of social media, geospatial modeling, and participatory design.
