Ravi Seshadri

Ravi Seshadri is an Associate Professor in the Transport Division at the Department of Technology, Management and Economics, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His research focuses on designing equitable, efficient, and sustainable mobility solutions with a focus on fiscal instruments like congestion pricing and tradable permits, as well as emerging mobility modes such as shared and demand-responsive transit. He employs methods from transportation network equilibria, dynamic traffic assignment, and agent-based simulation.

His research interests span transportation economics, urban planning, and intelligent transportation systems. Key areas include evaluating the impacts of automated mobility-on-demand systems, optimizing tolling strategies using predictive control and reinforcement learning, and integrating multi-modal transportation networks through game-theoretical frameworks. His work emphasizes real-world applications in urban freight systems, e-commerce logistics, and sustainable urban mobility policies.

Recent projects include studying congestion pricing schemes via agent-based microsimulation, analyzing behavioral responses to decarbonization policies, and developing frameworks for tradable credit systems with peer-to-peer trading. He has contributed to both theoretical advancements (e.g., robust traffic assignment models) and applied tools like the SimMobility simulation platform.

Ravi's research demonstrates a strong focus on bridging transportation engineering with policy analysis, using cutting-edge computational methods to address complex urban mobility challenges. His work spans academic publications, industry collaborations, and policy consultations to advance sustainable transportation systems.
