Our research

Research in Communications and Transport Systems

The research deals with problems and issues related to the planning, design, utilization, management and analysis of infrastructure for the transport of people and goods as well as for telecommunications. The research has a system perspective and in many projects we can see a cooperation between researchers with different disciplinary background. Mathematical modelling is often used as a methodology tool, but our research also includes qualitative methods to describe and analyze problems and systems.

Research areas

Vallastaden 2017 - Construction logistics

Construction Logistics and Supply Chain Management

We are researching how to create long-term sustainability and effectiveness in the built environment with a focus on logistics, digitalization, and resource-efficient construction.

Traffic Modeling and Simulation

Our research includes both the development of new types of models, and the application of models to new situations. The models studied include both the demand and supply side of the problem and...

Transport Analytics

We are currently working with data from stationary radar sensors which measure speed and flow of traffic, GPS data from vehicles driving around urban areas, and mobile phone location data extracted from the mobile phone network.

Wireless Optimization and Analytics

The research develops new models, concepts, and solution algorithms for performance optimization in wireless networking and data analytics.
Fire fighters in action

Emergency response and health care logistics

We develop models, methods, and decision support for the optimized management of these resources. This is done in close cooperation with the rescue and health care sector.
Public transportation

Railway and public transport

The research group for railway and public transport is interested in developing models and methods, which describe the traffic and can be used as decision support tools.
Air port

Air traffic and transportation planning and management

We develop mathematical models and algorithmic solutions for challenges in air traffic management and air transportation.
Traffic and closed streets in the central parts of a city

Urban development and logistics

The research focus on decreasing environmental impact and disturbances of city development, as well as utilization of capacity of time and space within the city in such a way that both goods and person transport can work efficiently and effectively.

Disturbance-free city during construction projects

Having a holistic approach to all construction projects in a city is the most important factor for minimising disturbance. But that is easier said than done. This is shown by researchers from LiU in a new book.

Reducing construction transport movements in cities

Construction transport in cities creates major disruption. This can be greatly reduced. But it requires better planning and management at an early stage in construction projects.

Students looking for a missing person in Kolmården Wildlife Park

Someone’s lost in the Kolmården Forest and around 40 students must find him before he wanders into the elephant enclosure. They are using the electronic footprints he has made. Can they manage it? Indeed they can – and it doesn’t take them long.
