Zanlungo's work explores collision avoidance mechanisms, stripe formation in cross-flows, and social group dynamics using computational physics and agent-based models. He has developed cellular automaton frameworks and congestion metrics to analyze pedestrian flow.
His recent publications (2020-2025) highlight trends in modeling pedestrian interactions, social norms, and density-dependent dynamics in crowds. Key subfields include collision avoidance, group behavior, computational modeling, and urban mobility optimization.
He maintains regular office hours at Viale delle Scienze 18, available Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. His research contributes to understanding how social interactions shape collective movement patterns and informs crowd management strategies.
