Franziska Theurich

Dr. Franziska Theurich serves as a faculty member within the Chair of Traffic Flow Science at Dresden University of Technology (TU Dresden), holding a doctoral degree in natural sciences (Dr. rer. nat.). Based in the Potthoff-Bau building at Hettnerstraße 1, Dresden, she contributes to the university's transportation research infrastructure through teaching and academic leadership. Her institutional role encompasses course instruction and research oversight within this specialized domain.

Her research centers on Transportation Engineering and Traffic Flow Modeling, applying advanced mathematical techniques including integral transforms, multivariable calculus, and statistical analysis to traffic dynamics. She develops computational models for urban mobility systems, emphasizing numerical methods to address congestion and infrastructure challenges. This work bridges theoretical mathematics with practical transportation solutions, focusing on data-driven approaches to traffic optimization.

The Chair of Traffic Flow Science operates as a dedicated research unit under Dr. Theurich's direction, collaborating with transportation authorities and industry partners. Located in Dresden's academic hub, the chair advances methodologies for traffic simulation and management while training students in quantitative transportation analysis through specialized coursework.
