About
Dr. Mohammadi is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Urban Transportation Center at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). He earned his Ph.D. (2021) and M.S. (2013) in Transportation Planning and Engineering from Sharif University of Technology (SUT). His research focuses on sustainable transportation, leveraging advanced econometric modeling, statistical analysis, and optimization algorithms. His expertise includes non-motorized and active transportation, transit-oriented development, smart on-demand systems, and emissions estimation.
He has an interdisciplinary background in transportation systems, data-driven modeling, and programming. His research includes (a) advanced econometric modeling and statistical analysis, with an emphasis on Integrated Choice and Latent Variable (ICLV) models; (b) the development of Activity-Based Models (ABM) to improve travel demand forecasting and optimize transportation networks; and (c) innovative solutions to reduce car dependency and emissions. Through his work, he contributes to advancing intelligent, data-driven transportation planning for more sustainable urban mobility.
